V-Ray for SketchUp Description
As one of the most popular 3D modeling software solutions, SketchUp is fit for various drawing projects, including interior design, 3D printing, or architecture. Aiming to equip SketchUp with advanced rendering capabilities, the V-Ray extension enables SketchUp users to obtain photo-realistic models.
Control lighting to render realistic scenes
The V-Ray extension is easily deployed and integrated into SketchUp, allowing users to access its features either via the ‘Extensions’ menu or the floating VfS toolbars. All the controls are within reach, but it is advisable to take the time and go through the extensive documentation to get the most out of this Sketchup plugin.
