Ensures that scattered objects (like grass or gravel) do not bleed over the edges of your defined surfaces, creating a clean, professional finish.
Note for Mac users: V-Ray 7.00.01 requires macOS 11.3 or newer. Intel Macs are supported, but Apple Silicon (M2 Max/Ultra) is heavily optimized.
Scatter allows users to distribute thousands of instances (trees, grass patches, people) across surfaces using rules (slope, altitude, proximity). Crucially, Scatter in V-Ray 7.00.01 uses memory-efficient instancing and generates proxies on the fly. A SketchUp model that would otherwise freeze at 200MB can now support 2 million grass blades and 5,000 trees, all managed through V-Ray’s render-time generation. The scatter objects are not imported into SketchUp’s geometry list; they remain as lightweight V-Ray objects. For SketchUp 2021 users on older hardware, this is transformative—it unlocks detailed landscapes without upgrading computers.
Open the Chaos Cosmos Browser from the V-Ray toolbar. It may ask to download assets. This is separate from the main install but necessary for high-quality materials and HDRIs.
