trouble with vray proxy ?

[sourabhb]

hi...

i am facing some prblem with rendering vrayproxy objects.....as soon as i am exporing vrayproxy object it looses its original material and converts it to its default object colour(it's not taking material which is applied to it from the material slot)...... .kindly view the attached images.

plzzzzzz help me out with this...i am in urgent need of using vray proxy....

well vray proxy as being discussed before ...

you have to attach the various meshes as one mesh and save the multi sub object that you get from that single mesh which you then apply it on the vray proxy object

i tried using that sir.....i converted my object to mesh and attached them.but its still not showing it colours

Vraymesh's do not keep there materials, but they do keep their material id's...just apply the material from the original object...

For that very reason, when I make my Vray proxys, I like to save the proxy (with texture applied) in a .max scene with a copy of the original geometry - then all you have to do is merge from that saved scene into your main scene, and it will come in with the materials applied

1) click export as vray proxy

 

2) check the selection 'export as separate meshes'

 

3) GROUP the remaining objects

 

for anyone having trouble with vray proxy i usually tell them to group rather than mess with submaps....even though it is a slightly less elegant way of organizing
