[igbarriga]

wow amazing, but how do you have the vray settings on the material editor, do you need like a vray plugin installed or something?

[RTpatrick09]

hi... i only haave things called "vrayFastsss"... and "vrayFastsss2"...., and "vraylightmtl"... and "vrayvectordisplayblake"...

will aany of theesee work?

[pamelalejo]

in this render the enviromet and the light? which one is? because i did same things and doesnt look like that.

[redwizard2k6]

@pamelalejo You may wanna try placing objects around it or inserting a HDRI map. If an object reflects something, what you see is its environment, and if the environment is black, you will see black as a result (:

[patopues11]

i do not speak Spanish, but his tutorial is very good and clear. Thank you.

[Trixz10]

This did not work for me!! please make this video clearer. I did everything told here but my render came out all black.

[GuyBluesummers]

@Trixz10 Did you turn on Global Illumination? If not, watch the previous Monday Movie to learn more about setting up the render with proper lighting. :)

@GuyBluesummers hi Guy..I like ur tuts..My questions are..1).When i render a scene with textures using in Vray Render..do i have to use textures in standard mtl lib or the the Vray mtl...? 2).if its Vray mtl ..how do i transfer all the std mtl textures into Vray mtl ?..Thanks Guy.

[embrytic]

Thanks - nice intro to materials - I want to try it out!

[futureanim8tor]

this is good but umm i cant find the vray glass material ..its like i dnt have it at all and i really like the glass material

[CHAZZimator]

You should make a vray render settings tutorial, your render was really fast and looked good! For me, even the most simple of scenes take hours to render! :(

[GuyBluesummers]

Heh; I sped that render up considerably. I was watching cartoons on my laptop while it was rendering.

[CHAZZimator]

haha! well, nether the less a render setup tutorial would be nice.

[nfguler]

@GuyBluesummers Lol. First time i thought that you used a render farm until i see your reply.  :)

[z3dar]

I would also like more tutorials that doesn't require any additional plugins for max.

I was goofing around with reaction manager last night and was thinking what it was capable of. Maybe you could make tutorial or two about it?

[GuyBluesummers]

Fair enough, z3dar. I'll try to hammer out a few of the more standard fare before continuing with the VRay series.

Let's not forget; I'm still 1 week behind; I should be on #73 right now.

[danny3man]

hey man can`t u make a tuesday movie, and a tursday movie and so long....till you rich sunday movie ?

[DominikWidomski]

Vray looks amazing ! xD

[eXcess007]

uhmm I know this sounds selfish but I dont care about Vray...I love your vids 'couse there aren't so many Mentalray tutorials but with Vray the thing is different ur gonna find Vray tuts every site you go I gotta question from now on, all ur tuts are gonna be about Vray????

[GuyBluesummers]

Don't sweat it, eXcess. That's the kind of feedback I need sometimes. :)

Chaos Group likes the job so far, and they're thinking of letting me try an SP4 trial version. It might not be fair to only do one more when the dongle arrives. These're fun to do, too, so if you'll bear with me on two or three more I'll try to mix them in with some good Reactor & mental ray stuff I've got coming up.

[eXcess007]

thx dude...I totaly understand...:D Vray is a really good render engine and I can see why now. Please tell me wich render engine u think its better??? Vray is really simple keep things easy and fast and Mentalray its a lil slow but I think u have more control in ur scene "in general" I know both of them have their own goals but for YOU wich one its the best.

hehe srry for my sucking english hope u understand...:D thx dude...

[Kpaxian007]

Great, thank you very much. :)

[TheVisceral89]

My Vray material Swatches dosnt look anything like this :O Nice tutorial however.

[RfactorVideo]
