<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">Since they were first
revealed in beta form, V-Ray 1.6 for SketchUp’s banner features were met with
much excitement in the V-Ray community. After receiving excellent feedback from

incremental release into a major one. </span></div>

improvements up to 30 times faster. With 64-bit rendering, 3D artists can tap
their 64-bit render farm for more processing power with added flexibility to
render larger scene sizes, images, and animations in SketchUp. The ability to
produce animation for SketchUp projects has also been streamlined, ensuring a
cleaner and easier creation process.</span></div>

Enjoy reading it.<br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Deo%20Saputra%20caustics/?action=view&current=CausticsandPool.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" height="470" src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Deo%20Saputra%20caustics/CausticsandPool.jpg" width="640" /></a>
<br />

<a href="http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Deo%20Saputra%20caustics/?action=view&current=2.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" height="480" src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Deo%20Saputra%20caustics/2.png" width="640" /></a>
<br />
<br />
1. important Set Up
Global Illumination Environment: Use Text Sky Map with the following settings
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Deo%20Saputra%20caustics/?action=view&current=opsi1.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" height="457" src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Deo%20Saputra%20caustics/opsi1.jpg" width="640" /></a>
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Deo%20Saputra%20caustics/?action=view&current=pr.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" height="479" src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Deo%20Saputra%20caustics/pr.jpg" width="640" /></a>
<br />
<b>Photon Radius:</b> Used to control the caustics' radius. This value depends on the size of the scene.<br />
<b>Caustics Subdivision:</b> This parameter controls the amount of photons that VRAY traces to estimate caustics. Large numbers means better quality but more memory needed, thus slowing down the calculation process.<br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Deo%20Saputra%20caustics/?action=view&current=perbandingan1.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" height="640" src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Deo%20Saputra%20caustics/perbandingan1.jpg" width="579" /></a>
<br />
<br />
2. Caustics Parameters<br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Deo%20Saputra%20caustics/?action=view&current=cs1.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" height="323" src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Deo%20Saputra%20caustics/cs1.jpg" width="640" /></a>
<br />
<br />
Maximum Photons: This is the maximum number of photons that will be considered when rendering the caustics effect on a surface. Smaller values cause less photons to be used and the caustics will be sharper, but perhaps noisier. Larger values produce smoother, but blurrier caustics. The special value of 0 means that V-Ray will use all the photons that it can find inside the search area.
<br />
Multiplier: this allows you to control the brightness of the photon map
<br />
Search distance. It allows you to specify the photon search distance manually.
* Keep in mind that this value depends on the size of your scene. Lower values will speed up the rendering but may produce more noisy results. Larger values will slow down the rendering but may produce smoother results.
<br />

Vismat is the root file use by VRAY SketchUp with materials.<br />

<b>Part 1: Packing the Vismat material.</b><br />
<br />
Packing is the word use when you want to save the vismat file and want to share it with others or just for reusing it in the other files.
Here is how... Let me share you this mug scene in SketchUp. In this scene I created three different materials and they are already applied in the mugs. The materials are the same materials on the rendered image above.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Vismat%20tut/?action=view&current=1.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" height="383" src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Vismat%20tut/1.jpg" width="640" /></a>
<br />
<br />
To pack the material, all you have to do is to open the material editor. Select the VRAY Material. In the image below the "Metal Flake" material was selected.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Vismat%20tut/?action=view&current=2.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" height="529" src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Vismat%20tut/2.jpg" width="640" /></a>
<br />
<br />
Then right click mouse. Select "Pack Material"<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Vismat%20tut/?action=view&current=3.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" height="575" src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Vismat%20tut/3.jpg" width="640" /></a>
<br />
<br />
Now you can specify the name and file type. I love to zip it when I am sharing it with others. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Vismat%20tut/?action=view&current=4.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" height="477" src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Vismat%20tut/4.jpg" width="640" /></a>
<br />
<br />
Here is the Zip File it has two files: the vismat and the texture I used in the file.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Vismat%20tut/?action=view&current=5.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" height="640" src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Vismat%20tut/5.jpg" width="599" /></a>
<br />
<br />
Part 2: Loading the Vismat File.<br />
<br />
This is pretty easy. All you have to do is to go to the material editor, right click mouse and choose load material.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Fg1VC9_EyNo/UQQD5OPuJCI/AAAAAAAADFs/Nb6Wvl26nzI/s1600/6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="534" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Fg1VC9_EyNo/UQQD5OPuJCI/AAAAAAAADFs/Nb6Wvl26nzI/s640/6.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
Browse the location of the material you want to load. Click Open.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Vismat%20tut/?action=view&current=7.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Vismat%20tut/7.jpg" /></a>
<br />
<br />
The material will be added to your material editor and usually it will appear at the bottom.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Vismat%20tut/?action=view&current=8.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" height="526" src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Vismat%20tut/8.jpg" width="640" /></a>
<br />
<br />
You can apply now this material to the scene. One piece of advise, use the SketchUp Paint bucket tool to apply this material. It is faster..<br />
<br />
One of the good thing to know is that once the material is chosen in the material editor, this material is automatically chosen in SketchUp too. Therefore you can use the paint bucket tool with ease. <br />
<a href="http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Vismat%20tut/?action=view&current=9.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" height="389" src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Vismat%20tut/9.jpg" width="640" /></a>
<br />
<br />
DO NOT USE the apply material selection tool in VRAY it's very slow comparing to the paint bucket tool in SketchUp.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Vismat%20tut/?action=view&current=10_never.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" height="516" src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Vismat%20tut/10_never.jpg" width="640" /></a>
<br />
<br />
Here the material is applied to the selection using the paint bucket tool.<br />

Editing the color of the native SU material inside SU does not guarantee that VRAY SU recognizes it. VRAY SU will still use the original bitmap material use by SketchUp.<br />
<br />
Here is an explanation from Onel Pabico on workaround how you want to do it in VRAY SU.<br />

It's time consuming yet once you have your initial room gallery you can recycle it and use it in other lessons.<br />
<br />
I love to surprise my students with our activities such as compare and contrasting artists, art movement studies, and art appreciation. One idea I did was I developed a virtual gallery in SketchUp, then borrowed some painting frames from the 3d Warehouse, edited and changed the paintings based on the topics that we want to look at in our lessons. I then embed links in the actual paintings components. Thanks to "Links" script by D.Bur which you can download from Ruby Library Depot <a href="http://rhin.crai.archi.fr/rld/download.php?file=links.rb" target="_blank">HERE</a>. <br />
<br />
Let me share how did I do it.<br />
<br />
<h3>
<b>Part 1: Installing an additional script or plugin</b></h3>
Scripts or plugins are small tools that you can install in your SketchUp. They can further extend its capability and efficiency. Here I will show you how you can install this "links.rb" script made by D.Bur. This script has the ability to embed link from your school network, your personal computer or the internet. <br />
<br />
<h4>
Step1: Download the "Link" Script by D.Bur </h4>

<h4>
Step 2: Pasting the link to the SketchUp Folder.</h4>
You can either copy or cut the link.rb file that was downloaded.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Education/?action=view&current=image13.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Education/image13.jpg" /></a>
<br />
<br />
and paste it in the Sketchup Program Plugin root folder.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Education/?action=view&current=image14.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" height="336" src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Education/image14.jpg" width="640" /></a> <br />
<br />
See it's very easy to add scripts in SketchUp. <br />
<br />
<h3>
Part 2: Modeling a virtual gallery room.</h3>
<br />
To create a virtual gallery room in SketchUp, I will give you a head start. Of course it's better if you have already experience with it. But if you have minimal or no experience at all, let me guide you with this simple modeling and could be useful in helping your students.<br />
<br />
<h4>
Step 1: Draw rectangle floor </h4>
<br />
<a href="http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Education/?action=view&current=1.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" height="377" src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Education/1.jpg" width="640" /></a>
<br />
<br />
<h4>
Step 2. Adding height</h4>
<a href="http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Education/?action=view&current=2.jpg" target="_blank"></a>
<a href="http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Education/?action=view&current=2.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" height="374" src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Education/2.jpg" width="640" /></a>
<br />
<br />
<h4>
Step 3: Enter the interior</h4>
<a href="http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Education/?action=view&current=3.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" height="378" src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Education/3.jpg" width="640" /></a>
<br />
<h4>
Step 4. Adding painting component with frame.</h4>
<a href="http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Education/?action=view&current=4.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" height="388" src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Education/4.jpg" width="640" /></a>
<br />
<br />
<h4>
Step 5. Edit the image inside the art frame component</h4>
<a href="http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Education/?action=view&current=5.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" height="386" src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Education/5.jpg" width="640" /></a>
<br />
<br />
<h4>
Step 6. Renaming and pasting the new material (painting)</h4>
<a href="http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Education/?action=view&current=6.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" height="470" src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Education/6.jpg" width="640" /></a>
<br />
<br />
<h4>
Step 7. Correcting the image applied in the face</h4>
<a href="http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Education/?action=view&current=7.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" height="451" src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Education/7.jpg" width="640" /></a>
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Education/?action=view&current=8.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" height="350" src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Education/8.jpg" width="640" /></a>
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Education/?action=view&current=9.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" height="391" src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Education/9.jpg" width="640" /></a>
<br />
<br />
Painting material applied.<br />
<a href="http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Education/?action=view&current=10.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" height="390" src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z306/nomeradona/Education/10.jpg" width="640" /></a>
<br />
<br />
This is a simplified way but you can always model a much better interior as you increase your skills in modeling using SketchUp.<br />
<br />
<h3>
<b>PART 3: Embedding link inside the component</b> </h3>
<br />
As an educator I always want my student to engage themselves in the lessons and find creative ways in doing it. I believe, when there is continuous curiosity and excitement, engagement is inevitable. When students are engage, facilitating learning is easier. <br />
<br />
Even in the SketchUp community, many people are not aware that we can embed documents, files, html hyper
texts, etc to any face, object or component in SketchUp. For me this
is the fun and exciting part. In this next tutorial, I will embed hypertext links inside the paintings in my SketchUp Virtual Gallery. This time I will be using a much better modeled scene.<br />
<br />
Images below shows a display of art work from surreal artists " Rene Magritte, Frida Kahlo, Salvador Dali< Di Chirico, Matta, Tanguy etc. It's a room created for my International Baccalaureate students who needs to analyze, compare and contrast various "surrealist artists". This model was given to then and they opened it in SketchUp. They navigated the scene and look at each painting. For me this is more exciting if this image is use in Augmented Reality in which you can use SketchUp. Another alternative that I do is creting a Virtual 720 degree scene that can be explored by each student. In anycase, with little modeling on how to navigate the scene in SketchUp, providing the skp. file is enough.<br />
