Chaos released V-Ray 7 for SketchUp on December 10, 2024. While build 7.00.01 was the initial standard release, subsequent updates like 7.00.02 and 7.20.01 have introduced broader support, including native compatibility for SketchUp 2025. Key Features in V-Ray 7
The built-in 3D content library, Chaos Cosmos, has been updated with thousands of high-quality models, HDRIs, and materials. In V-Ray 7, the integration is tighter, allowing for faster browsing and "smart" proxies that keep your SketchUp viewport fluid even when your scene is filled with high-poly vegetation and furniture. 5. Real-Time Rendering with V-Ray Vision V-Ray 7 for SketchUp (Build 7
Lighting workflows have been overhauled with the introduction of V-Ray Luminaires, which are optimized light fixture assets in the Chaos Cosmos library that preserve accurate light distribution while reducing render times. The V-Ray Sun & Sky system now includes a new PRG sky model, enabling realistic nautical twilight looks and sunsets even when the sun is below the horizon. Furthermore, the Night Sky system simulates accurate astronomical data, including the moon, stars, and the Milky Way, based on real-world time and location. Advanced Workflow and Post-Production
Creating complex patterns like fences, fabrics, or perforated metal used to require heavy geometry that slowed down SketchUp. With V-Ray Enmesh, you can cover surfaces with detailed 3D patterns without increasing the polygon count. It treats the geometry like a texture, allowing for intricate designs with zero performance lag. 4. Chaos Cosmos Expansion Official trial – 30 days (full features) Student
