hi all, wondering if anyone knows why the vray material editor would NOT respect changes made to materials in the sketchup material editor? my understanding is that if i adjust a material's colour or size with the sketchup material that the vray material should be updated accordingly. but perhaps i'm mistaken. any help is much appreciated.
ahhh well i am surprised that vray doesn't follow sketchup material edits. its a drag to have to edit every texture in an image editor. but i sure am glad i know that i'm not doing something wrong. thanks so much for the info/reply!
Hi @rfollett, For your brightness problem I would leave lighting multipliers at normal and adjust scene brightness using the physical camera settings. Once you have the scene lighting more balanced with the right camera settings, then you can tweak specific lights that are causing nasty reflections etc. but it sounds like you are using a single sun system.
Also remember that Rhino Sun and Vray sun are not the same thing, although Vray can make use of the Rhino sun.
Also, if you delete or disable the vray sun then vray will use the default Rhino lighting in the scene.
Check how many suns are in your scene under the lighting tab and disable the rhino sun. Overbright scene can also be the result of a double sun setup. Try changing your vray sun direction and see if the shadow directions etc. are effected. If not then you probably have the Rhino sun in there too.
