This page provides information on the V-Ray File Path Editor.

 

Overview


The V-Ray File Path Editor manages all your scene files in one place. It lets you set file paths, create scene archives, and keep track of assets like textures, IES files, and proxy objects.

This asset manager gives you a neat overview of all available files in the scene, so you don't lose sight of any.

Yellow – The file is available, but is embedded in a temporary cache file. 

Red – The file is missing or inaccessible.
