They’re very detailed, and contain a LOT of geometry. Let’s say, for example, that we want to render these 3 trees (trees are from Skatter’s model library). Vray allows you to export your object as a proxy file, will import as a normal mesh at render time only. However, that being said, usually the most realistic models for rendering are also high polygon, so we can use proxies to bring those items into our renderings without having to bring them into SketchUp. This can be especially useful because SketchUp doesn’t always handle very high polygon models very well. In today’s video, we’re going to talk about using Vray proxies to speed up your rendering models.īasically, a proxy is a replacement within your model that is used to take the place of a high polygon model.
In this Vray 3.6 for SketchUp tutorial, learn to use Vray proxies to create high quality renderings with high polygon models without slowing down your SketchUp models!
