If you have an actual map of your material, you’ll notice that your result is much better. The best way to do this is to use a texture type that actually has a bump map image associated with it. As you can see, in your rendering, you know have that bump map applied to your white material. Then, go into your maps section of your materials editor and add a bump map material.

To do this, start by applying a color texture to your face in SketchUp. To test this, let’s add a bump map to a simple material from SketchUp. It’s basically a shading effect applied to your model. Basically, Vray will use the texture image to determine where it should simulate bumpiness within your model. BUMP MAPPINGīump mapping uses an image in order to simulate bumps on a flat face. Both of these options are designed to help simulate the bumps and roughness that naturally come with materials in the real world without having to actually model that detail. In this video, I want to talk about the difference between bump mapping and displacement mapping in Vray for SketchUp. In addition, learn the benefits of both Bump Maps and Displacement maps, and when to use each of them in your Vray Renderings! I don't know if this is the way to do it from now or a bug.In today’s video, learn to use Bump Maps and Displacement maps in Vray for SketchUp to create realistic rough surfaces in your renderings. It seems that disp bitmap affects only to the group for geometry, but not for materials from inside the group. I tried again applying several materials on surface from inside the group keeping the roof disp bitmap, and disp geometry is still working works again, but I can't easily adjust the disp map position I used this first method for years because it's the easiest way for adjusting textures on surfaces. It worked for me in previous versions and I think with this release as well.Īpplied roof material to the group (from outside the group) Modify this roof material adding the same map to displacement (amount 20 for test) I've imported a bitmap (the roof displacement map in this post) over the white face of rectangle. First of all, I've made a rectangle 10mx10m, white face up.
