SketchUp for Vray Video Tutorials from Chaos Group

[valerostudio]

I find that a lot of questions asked here can be very easily answered from Chaos Group's Youtube video tutorials. If you are serious about learning this program, watch all of these and you will be well on your way!

Some videos are still found under asgvis. Do you know if all of them have been moved to the ChaosGroupTV user? I guess I could look through and check for myself, but.. yawn... look at the time, gotta go.

It looked like they had redone a few after the acquisition, but I have not looked to see if they are all there. Here they are, just in case.

I also want to mention that the CG School has a great set of Free vidoes that really get into the complex GI settings of V-Ray. This is based on VR for 3DS Max, but a lot of the principles are the same.

hello everyone,

i'm sorry to invade this thread, but i just stumbled upon this site http://www.jamesshaw.co.nz/blog/?p=542 and it's essentially a walkthrough of the lighting setup for VRay (in combination with 3dsmax, but it's applicable to any VRay instance )

and i think it's a nice alternative to ChaosGroup's official tutorial on lighting, so that's why i thought it's appropriate to post it here.

Lynda.com have a tutorial course: "Vray for Sketchup" which is the best video I have seen explaining how to go about things. It is simple and clear... unlike some of the videos from ChaosGroup, where it's hard to understand the accents of the teachers.

The worst part of YouTube tutorials is when the narrator starts talking about 500 things a viewer does not need to think, or hear about, at the moment.

Also, it would be nice if someone at Chaos would have thought - gee, a factory reset button would be nice to get novices back to where things start.
