V-Ray for SketchUp v6

SketchUp is one of the most widely used and easy to learn 3D Modeling software on the market today. With V-Ray for SketchUp users now have one of the most powerful rendering tools available to visualize their models with the upmost quality and realism. V-Ray works within the SketchUp environment allowing users to be able to efficiently incorporate the task of rendering within their current workflows.

True raytraced reflections and refractions
Glossy reflections and refractions
Indirect Illumination (global illumination, global lighting). Different approaches include direct computation (brute force), and irradiance maps.
Area shadows (soft shadows). Includes box and sphere emitters
True HDRI support. Includes support of proper texture coordinate handling for both cubic and angular maps. Map your images directly without distortions or cropping.
Fully multithreaded raytracing engine
Native SketchUp materials supported and integrated into V-Ray Materials
Antialiasing. Includes fixed, simple 2-level and adaptive approaches.
Reusable irradiance maps (save and load support). Incremental sampling for fly- through animations.

Depth-Of-Field camera effect.
Distributed Rendering allowing a single image to be process over up to 10 machines
Per Material GI, Background, Reflection, and Refraction
V-Ray Two-Sided Material for easy creation of thin translucency
