Vantage not syncing camera movement from SU

V-Ray for SketchUp V-Ray for SketchUp :: Issues
1

I am running a live link to Vantage 3.1.1 and it used to follow all of my camera movements but recently it doesnt. It will load the first view that I have when I send it to Vantage and that’s all. Then, when I close Vantage it will not end the Render Interactive in SketchUp and I have to go into Windows processe and hard kill SketchUp to get out of it. If I do manage to get SketchUp to close, the process stays in the task list as a phatom running application. See the image below - this was after closing Vantage and SketchUp.

Hello @ValeroStudio ,
Could you please update Vantage to 3.2.0 latest build and let me know if you are still able to reproduce the same issue?

Only active view is exported to Vantage - this is expected. Do you mean that if you switch between Scenes in SketchUp the change is not updated in Vantage? If you could share a video or exact steps it would be extremely helpful.

This is SketchUp behavior reported by many users, in this case it is better to force-stop the process.

What graphics driver do you have installed at the moment?

OK, I updated to 3.2 and seems to be working as expected now. The camera matches the movements of SketchUp’s camera now. When I close Vantage it took 25 seconds for SketchUp to recognize that and turn off Interactive rendering. I wish it could be a bit faster, like a hard stop. I am using 591.74 on a RTX 4090 card.

Can you check perhaps it is scene-related. If you use Live Link in a very simple file does it behave the same way or is it faster?

I just tested on a small file and it stopped withing a second or two. So, a large scene will take some time for the function to quit it seems. Correct?

This issue seems to have reappeared with a file that had been worked on for the last year on and off. Camera and shadows will not sync with SketchUp.
