Whenever I insert a light source, the program switches to a cutting perspective. Why? And how can this be changed?

Is there a way to control the depth of a bump map? Even at 100% I can’t get this texture to bump high enough to be noticeable…

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone had experience about using vray for rhino for product design? It doesn’t seem very common in product design but the direct integration in rhino makes it great for iteration and not having to reimport your model all the time… At the moment I use keyshot and blender depending on project, they are great but having to switch program all the time is not very efficient…
Also can you do animation with vray?
Thanks

Hello All,
I am sorry if this question is a bit basic, I have been reading through the manuals for vray and rhino over the past couple of days trying to figure this out. I am hoping for some confirmation regarding how to duplicate the real world size of a vray texture (typically mm or cm from what i see) when texture mapping in rhino. When in the texture mapping tab in rhino for a given surface/polysurface there is the x,y,z size, which I understand to be the dimensions, in model units, of each tile for the selected surface. There is then also the UVW Repeat options, which I understand to be t ..read more

As the title suggests, is it possible for multiple boxes with different rotations to have a triplanar map that adapts to each of their rotations?

Hi, i would like to create a thatched roof out of water reed in rhino or with a vray structure for my rendering. Does anyone know how i could create a thatched roof in rhino7 or where i could get a Vray material?

I reported that the latest update of Vray 6 (hotfix 4) creates problems with GPU calculation (Cuda/Rtx). Rhino 8 crashes when rendering via GPU. I thought it was the fault of the latest nVidia drivers, but I verified that it was their update’s fault, since even with the April nVidia drivers Rhino 8 crashes.
Have any of you encountered the same problem?

As found in the latest patch:
The Tri-Planar texture viewport appearance is improved
The viewport appearance of ray-traced textures like V-Ray Dirt is improved
For the first one, it’s a great improvement and it works perfectly.
For the dirt, when adding it to a diffuse map nothing really change. Does it mean we should be able to preview it without render?
thanks

When I want to use Vray 6 in Rhino 8 it doesn’t load the plugin, when I change to the Vray renderer it switches back to the standard renderer and the following message sometimes appears the first time.
In order to be able to use Vray in Rhino 8 I first have to start Rhino 7 and set the renderer to Vray and then start Rhino 8 with the addition NetCore and then select Vray there which leads to a freeze but after a restart Vray strangely runs in Rhino 8 in NetCore and NetFx and every time an update is installed.
Vray 5 was much more stable in this regard and I hope a Vray developer reads this so ..read more

Hello, want to ask is this normal behaviour:
I have model saved as rhino file. I insert that file as block in to another file. Model imported and vray material is created from original file in it. But if i edit original rhino file vray ignores any changes to material. Changes done to model it self update as it should. So vray suppose to ignore original file materials or this is a bug?
