SketchUp 2021: Provides a stable environment for users who prefer the classic workflow without the heavy hardware demands of newer versions.
VRay 70001 drops support for SketchUp 2020 and earlier. If you are still on SketchUp 2020, you must use VRay 5.x.
: Exploring how the latest version of V-Ray can streamline or enhance the design process for SketchUp users, including case studies or before-and-after examples.
One of the most significant additions in V-Ray 7 is the Node Material Editor, available as a preview in Update 3. This tool allows users to build and adjust V-Ray materials visually using a node-based interface, making it easier to understand material logic and create complex shaders with greater control. The node editing workflow offers a more intuitive and visual alternative to traditional material creation, which is especially beneficial for designers who think in terms of procedural connections rather than linear parameter adjustments.
: Allows users to import and render 3D scenes captured from real-world photos with high accuracy.
Now enabled by default, automatic denoising improves rendering efficiency by dynamically adjusting between interactive and production modes. This feature ensures clean, noise-free renders without requiring manual setup or adjustment.
Allows you to integrate real-world 3D scans directly into your SketchUp scenes [5.1]. PRG Sky Model:
: A Photoshop-like system that allows you to composite multiple textures directly within the V-Ray Asset Editor using blending modes and opacity masks.
