  1. Hello, Recently, in max 2021/vray 5 hotfix 2, when i run vray scene converter, all my materials have their reflect color set to white. Before it would default to black. Any ideas what is causing this? Thanks!
  2. Ah, thanks for sharing that link, that's the same one I got.
  3. Hello, Wondering if anyone has come across anything similar. I get a project request for a 2 exterior renders of a "sports center" and a two week turn around. He provides basic site plan, plans, elevations, and a mood image. Says meeting with client in two weeks and need a quote. I send a quote and ask a few additional questions. He responds pretty quickly with this: He didn't answer any questions and just wanted to know all this info. I became suspect and looked up his name and his company website with no results. I look over the project drawings, notice they are from 2017 so I decide to look up the project name, street, and general area. Sure enough, i find it's a completed and built project. I never responded to the 18 questions so i'm not sure where this request was going. A friend suggested he might eventually want my checking and routing number to "pay" me after the project is complete which would be the scam in getting that info. Seemed pretty elaborate to me and wondered if anything similar is happened to any of you. Thanks for any insight or experiences.
  4. Thanks guys for the insight. It sounds like the clients legal dept wants to play it safe and remove any brand logos. I hadn't really worried about it in the past but also haven't had it come up until now. Even using a generic name wasn't good enough for legal dept since it still looked like a absolute vodka bottle. I think i'll just remove text all together.
  5. Hey all, I tried searching for this but maybe i'm not using the right keywords. What is the rule of having brand name objects shown in renderings. For instance a bar with bottles of Absolut, Jack Daniels, etc. I thought if it wasn't the focus of the rendering, then it was fine. Any advice or site to reference? Thanks!
  6. Hey all, I tried borrowing a license from my online license server, couldn't figure out how it works and now want to put it back. Anyone know how to do that? I tried chaos group support but the location where it says to put it back isnt' there. Wondering it's not there because i couldnt figure out how to use it in the first place? Thanks for any help.
  7. i would guess either the model is below the ground plan, there is a vray plane somewhere, or maybe a fog setting?
  8. Does anyone know if vray for sketchup 3.0 is backwards compatible to vray for sketchup 2.0? I know it has been for other platforms such as vray for 3ds max, just as long as you don't use release specific features. I'm trying to get one office to start using vray for sketchup 3 but another office is already using 2.0 and doesn't wish to upgrade. I just want to know if there will be any issues sharing files.
  9. someone posted an older version of the 360 photos app so i unistalled the current version and installed the old version. Also made sure to go into occulus settings and disable "app auto updates" It's working again. Here is the link for the older working version of 360 Photos: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzldgVVPxli7ZWVJQWhYMERLaEk/view
  10. this is very annoying. I had to demo gear vr yesterday to a client only to find out the new update broke stereoscopic cubemaps...very embarrassing... Does anyone know what the format needs to be now? I had been using the Chaos Group Labs Guide to VR as my workflow.
  11. Strange...I'm on SP4. It's a fresh install of both Max and Vray.
  12. Hi Randy, I'm able to use a standard camera in ortho mode with vray camera exposure and vray toon. I'm using Max 2016 with Vray 3.50.03. I use pixels and not world in vraytoon parameter settings, maybe that's the issue?
  13. I like to do architectural modeling in sketchup, import to max, add any additional entourage models, and then setup all materials, lighting and cameras with vray for max.
  14. ah, i see. You have DR on and sending to Backburner. I had a similar problem but because i forgot to turn off DR before sending to backburner. I always turn DR off when i'm sending to Backburner because of issues like your having. Maybe someone else has figured out how to get them to play nicely together.
