V-ray Sketchup colorize tool not working

V-Ray V-Ray for SketchUp Issues

Hi,

I’ve just updated my V-ray to the latest version two hours ago. Prior to this, I was working on my rendering with the previous version and everything worked fine. However, as soon as I installed the latest update and got back to rendering, the colorize tool doesn’t work. I’ve already tried purging, restarting my pc, re-installing v-ray but no avail. I even tried to re-apply the materials and tried to use the “colorize” tool but it’s still the same color on the VFB. I didn’t have any issues with “recoloring” the textures with the “colorize tool” and I’ve only encountered this issue right now and I don’t know what else to do.

Here’s a screenshot for your reference.

Thanks

Hello @ella_reola ,
Thank you for your post.

We were able to reproduce the issue with the latest 6.10.00 V-Ray for SketchUp update. It is logged as SK-4327 in our internal system and developers are working on the solution. I will post here in your topic once there are any updates regarding this issue.

In the meantime you can use Color Correction or Curve Corrections (Besier or Spline) to edit textures. Due to SketchUp limitations these Utility Textures will not be visible in the viewport, but you can use Interactive render or preview in the V-Ray Asset Editor to be able to see the changes and adjust them accordingly.​

Hello, are there any updates on this? It is kind of a big problem for me, because I often need to change my texture color to specifig rgb values which is easily possible through sketchup colorize function. And And also I cant render my old files, because all the colors are changed now to defaults.
