V-Ray 2.0 for SketchUp: End of support

V-Ray Next for SketchUp will be released soon. With the official release of this new version, Chaos Group will discontinue technical help and updates for V-Ray 2.0 for SketchUp. After the release you will:

  • not have on-demand access to V-Ray 2.0 for SketchUp builds
  • no longer have assisted technical support from Chaos Group
  • receive no software updates
  • not be eligible for upgrade to V-Ray Next for SketchUp

….so what’s Next?

Now is the perfect time to upgrade. Choose one of the options below and you’ll continue to get Chaos Group’s first-class technical and operations support, access to future updates and upgrades — and a shiny new version of V-Ray.

Switch to an Annual License

Chaos Group subscription model is packed with benefits, including:

  • Cost-effectiveness and simplified scalability
  • Low initial cost, which is great for freelancers, small and medium businesses
  • Free minor updates and major upgrades released during the license validity period
  • Free technical and operations support
Upgrade to V-Ray 3.0 for SketchUp before V-Ray Next for SketchUp is release

If the perpetual licensing model suits your needs, it may be wise to upgrade to V-Ray 3.0 for SketchUp before the official release. With this option, you’ll keep your access to Chaos Group’s technical support and you can purchase an upgrade to V-Ray Next for SketchUp when needed.
