#Buy vray for sketchup upgrade#
However, a couple hundred bucks to upgrade the RAM wouldn't hurt, but don't expect a huge difference. Instead of spending a lot of money buying a machine, I would go to Vray 5, get into Chaos Cloud rendering (for final / larger renders), take notes from some of those YouTube tutorials. Also, SketchUP just launched 2021 today, but I don't believe Vray is comparable with that yet, so I'd hold off on switching to SU20201 until that's confirmed.

Or, the software may need to be updated? What versions is she using? I've also had an abnormally large amounts of crashes with SketchUP 2020 and Vray Next lately, so I'm hoping that'll be fixed with an upgrade to Vray 5. Just purging the model & letting SketchUP fix issues in the model can solve crashes issues (Window>model info>statistics) & purge in Vray: "purge unused assets" (the little broom) in the lower right of the asset editor.

It's really a no-brainer.Īlso, rendering times can be affected by many factors & there are best practices all over YouTube about how to get significantly faster rendering times with Vray + SketchUP, so if the 2019 MacBook Pro is sluggish, it shouldn't be that bad, so I'd say the model may just need some attention, or settings adjusted. I'm super happy I tried it & wish I did it a long time ago! Now there's no worry about long render times, or having to buy another $4k laptop for that matter! Credits are $1 ea and I think it only cost me 2 or 3 (of my free credits) to have them render something for me that took them 11 min, but my machine would have taken 2-3 hours & in the mean time, I kept on working.
They render your scenes for you while you continue to work. You get 20 free credits for trying it out, so there's nothing to lose. I use both for rendering in Vray / SketchUP & the iMac is a little faster at rendering than the 4 year old MacBook Pro, and had some recent issues rendering with the laptop, so I was also just considering that I might need to upgrade the laptop soon, but then I tried out Chaos Cloud rendering and it changed my world. I also have a 2016 MacBook Pro (upgraded specs, etc.16 GB RAM). I recently bought a new iMac (with the upgraded specs + upgraded Ram to 64 GB with aftermarket RAM). But, don't waste your $ on a new machine. I am an architect working with the same software, on a Mac, so I totally comprehend where you're coming from.
