V-Ray 5 for SketchUp 

Introducing the next generation of rendering.

With significant workflow optimizations & faster rendering, V-Ray Next is smarter, faster and more powerful than ever.

V-Ray for SketchUp is an integral rendering solution for SketchUp, enabling designers to experience their designs in real-time as they model and take them to photorealism without leaving SketchUp. Preferred by many 3D artists, it is used by 95% of the top AEC firms worldwide and in countless films.

Unlike competitive products, V-Ray can use models from any source (like third party model companies), manage enormous complexity, illuminate with accuracy, and take users images to the highest quality. In addition V-Ray provides Academy Award winning quality and finishing tools that save from needing to use an additional post-processing program. 

Supports SketchUp 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021 MAC & WIN

Tight integration — A familiar environment closely integrated with SketchUp to ensure users never have to leave the

program to set scenes, apply materials or tweak lighting conditions on the fly.

Accuracy — Analyzes designs according to their actual lighting and the true reflections and refractions of their materials.

Easy to use — An intuitive interface with simplified render presets backed up by comprehensive documentation, lots of

video tutorials and a vibrant support community.

Quality — V-Ray lets you create the highest quality renders possible – directly in SketchUp.

Interoperability — Leverage V-Ray work from other 3D tools such as 3ds Max, SketchUp or Revit for render-ready

assets and reusable materials.

Power — V-Ray for SketchUp supports CPU, GPU or hybrid rendering, so you can make use of the full power of your

hardware. You can also even distribute renders across multiple networked machines with V-Ray Swarm.

Fast & smart production rendering — V-Ray Next is now twice as fast when using V-Ray GPU. V-Ray for SketchUp

lets you spend more time being creative and less time waiting.

V-Ray for SketchUp is immediately compatible with the new SketchUp 2020, as well as versions 2017-2019.
