Add assets from the manually added material libraries to your SketchUp project by drag-and-dropping the asset into the central panel or by right-clicking and selecting the option Add to Scene. The functionality buttons at the bottom enable the reordering of the assets' display.

Use the Open Folder button and select the path where your assets reside. They appear automatically in a newly created folder of the asset's tree. Right-click on the folder and use the context menu options to remove or refresh it.

Multi-selection of assets is possible in the Library, but you cannot drag-and-drop more than one asset at a time. Use the Add to Scene context menu option to add multiple assets at once.

Notes

...

  • With the release of V-Ray 5 for SketchUp, the Create section within the Preset Material Library is no longer available.
  • The V-Ray Material Library and Light Gen HDRI assets may be inaccessible for direct download to V-Ray 5 users. This can be avoided by upgrading to V-Ray 6.
    Alternatively, the asset files can be acquired manually by downloading the following archive file and unpacking it at:
    Windows: %USERPROFILE%\Documents\
    macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/ChaosGroup/
    Restarting V-Ray after the asset files are placed will restore functionality to both the Material Library and the Light Gen. Note that a message prompting you to download assets may still appear - press Continue to safely disregard it.
