I went back to the source skp file and checked the materials list but there’s no sign of a multi material for me to import. I rendered again (proxy side by side with original geometry) and it looked fine - materials etc.īut then, when I imported the proxies into my commercial building file, the cubes rendered but with material ID type faces: greens, yellows, pinks, etc. I proxied the duplicate cube and this time chose to “overwrite” and it simplified the cube into a clearly-“proxified” version. I then duplicated the original geometry in the same skp file as my proxy source and put it side by side.
I then turned it into a proxy (without overwriting the original geometry because I may well need to go back and update/edit the store interiors later) and rerendered it in the original skp window and it looked fine. I rendered it before turning it into a proxy and it worked fine. I applied Vray materials to two faces (gold and chrome) and a couple of my own materials to two other faces. To test this, I created a new skp file and made a simple cube. They then imported the proxy into their other skp scene and reconnected the multi material to it and it rendered.įrom the help pages I’ve found here, it says that proxies are ready to render which should - in my mind - include all materials (even if you have to manually relink them) I watched a YouTube video for a previous version of VRay (I’m running the latest version) which showed exporting the interior layout as a Vray proxy and then grabbing a Multi Material that was produced during the proxy export process.
I want to have separate skp files for each of these interiors which I can proxy and drop in to the building shell so that they render fully but are lightweight when I’m editing the building shell and its surroundings. Each of these stores is decorated and accessorized with materials, geometry, etc. It’s a multi tenant commercial building exterior view which contains 4 different store layouts which are visible in view. I have a complex scene that is becoming heavy to navigate in Sketchup. Sorry for the long post, but if it gets answered, it might be helpful for others (like me) in the future.
