I'm new to sketch up. My team is helping me learn and with yr videos it's extremely helpful. One of my suggestion is if you could make a video of what choice do we have regarding software ,like sketch up and and v ray. I'm using the studio pc and I cant figure out which program goes with what or work with which (the design team is too pro level for me). There are tons of add on and things that are available which I cant find when I just installed sketch up and v ray on my personal pc at home. And which is best for me? Should I dive in sketch up pro? But I'm just a beginner. I do event management so most of my 3d isn't as detailed as architecture drawing but I need photo realistic render for my client.
@SketchUpSchool
4 жыл бұрын
@@mrbrightside3771 Since you are working professionally on an event design team, we recommend you start with SketchUp Pro. And because you need photorealistic renderings, V-Ray for SketchUp is a great choice. As far as other extensions: Before you worry about adding a bunch of extra tools, it's really important to get the hang of the fundamentals of SketchUp first. You can definitely learn those on your own (hopefully with help from your team), but if you want to get up to speed quickly and avoid wasting time or picking up bad habits, we recommend you take a look at our Video Course Library which has courses that will help you learn everything from the fundamentals, all of the way up to creating photorealistic renderings with V-Ray for SketchUp.

2 жыл бұрын
Yes, you can import an image to be the background in SketchUp and there are many reasons that can be a preferred workflow. But when it comes to having an easy way to control the appearance of the background later, it can sometimes be best to add it after the fact in Photoshop.

great video and really helpful. is there anyway to scale down size of background images of HDR skies while using dome light? its a huge issue i fail because every time i use dome-light the background image is so cause it often never matches with the size of the model and gives me unrealistic renders
@SketchUpSchool
3 жыл бұрын
There's not a way to scale down the size of an HDR image in a Dome Light. A workaround: If you want to control the size, create a dome shape in SketchUp, and apply a self illuminated material of the background image there, then you can scale the SketchUp dome and the texture will follow.
You should invert your bump map :)

I installed vray but every render i made still pixelated. Is it my graphics card problem or something i missed in the denoiser?
@SketchUpSchool
3 жыл бұрын
It could have to do with a few different things. The first thing to check is your render quality settings: If they are set to Low or even Medium, then you will have some pixelation. Of course, higher quality leads to longer rendering times, but when you are ready to create a final rendering the higher quality will help. Also, for the denoiser, you just need to have it turned on. The default settings should work fine in most cases. After those two things, if you still have a bit of pixelation, it can often be due to an issue with your lighting and exposure. If you have an imbalance there, it can lead to some graininess in the image.
