Then go to the Sun section and make sure you check the box for “Enabled” to ensure it’s on. In the Default Sky Options at the top, select “Sun 1” from the dropdown – this is the SketchUp sun. Then it will give you the options for a sun.
Select “TexSky” from dropdown menu which is basically a skylight system that’s enabled in V-Ray. Checking the big “M” means there’s something assigned to it.Ĭlick on the big “M” and a new window will pop up. And then you see there’s a big “M” and a small “m.” The small “m” indicates that there’s no texture or no other tools assigned to it.
Make sure the “GI (skylight)” is turned on by checking that box.
Then go to the V-Ray Render Option Editor, and click on “Environment” to expand that section. Then you hit “Render,” the shadows will match that, using the V-Ray sun.īut first you need to make sure the V-Ray sun is enabled. So if you turn your shadows on, and your settings are set so that it’s the Fall – between September and October – and the time of day is set as afternoon. That information is what theV-Ray sun will use to also orientate yourself. That is essentially how you will located the north orientation and correctly position your model in space. Click on “Add Location” and a window pops up where you can add a specific location like Chicago, IL or wherever you want your model to be To see that too, go to “Window,” then “Model Info,” then go to “Geo-location.” Here you can add a location to your model. In SketchUp, there is a location tool that allows you to specify where you want your model to be. When you do that, you can see you have control of where the sunlight is coming from. Zoom in and turn your shadows on by clicking the shadow icon in the shadows toolbar. Once you do that, you can see it appears in the top right-hand corner. So go to “View” then to “Toolbars” and turn on the Shadows toolbar. The V-Ray sun is tied to the SketchUp shadows and sun. We’re going to use a V-Ray sun and sky to start.
