I am no expert using mklinks, and for some reason this caused our material library to get trashed over and over again.
Vray material library windows#
This became a bit cumbersome as our material library grew and it relied on our workstations AND render nodes to restart on a consistent basis (which does not happen on the headless render nodes), so I TRIED using some symbolic links (all on windows environment) so the materials folder would be pointed to the correct networked location. For a while we were using a script to copy everything down from our shared asset drive. KonstantinI just wanted to bump and poke this a bit. Options for saving scene materials to a custom library will also be a nice addition and is something on our 'to do' list. Support for custom library locations is a feature that will be implemented in one of the upcoming updates. Would be so great if you could do it with Vray too. My normal SU materials path is a folder in my dropbox, so that when I'm out, any new materials are synced from my laptop and workstation. An option to 'save all materials to user folder', that collected all Vray referenced files and saved them in a folder with the same name as the project would be amazing. this would be amazing for people needing to work on projects across different machines, especially with regards to missing bitmaps, etc. It would be really nice to have a second, user materials path that the library also references, so that you could keep your materials on the network or a shared folder. Is it not possible to add to the material library, or am I just doing it the wrong way? And when I try to save a material into the folder in programfiles/chaosgroup/./materials it says I don't have permission and points me to another folder.
It seems like I should be able to just drag and drop the material over to the library, but nothing happens.
Is there any way to save materials that I have created myself into the material library? 2nd post, Sorry I'm a new user with quite a few questions
