trueSpace FAQ

Q: I have just installed trueSpace 7.6 and V-Ray 1.53, but I cannot seem to use the V-Ray render engine in the Workspace tab area. How do I enable trueSpace to render with V-Ray?

A: First, you need to make sure the engine is loaded in the Package Manager. The Package Manager can be found by default under the 4th bottom icon menu from the left side of the interface (the icon in the menu will appear as a wall outlet with an electrical plug). A list of packages installed will appear once the Package Manager is launched. If V-Ray does not appear on the list, right-click in the gray list area, select "Install New ..." and load the Vray_ts.rsx file found under the trueSpace76 directory. Finally, load the V-Ray renderer by right-clicking on the new plugin and selecting "Load". Close the Package Manager. You should now be able to render your scenes using the V-Ray render engine.

Q: Why do I get an "ERROR EVENT..." dialog box when I launch an object (.cob) or a scene (.scn) file from a data folder?

A: This error is most likely attributed with any version between 7 and 7.51. The text will state "Load Object: Invalid version: 22048". The only known work around is to actually open trueSpace 7.x and use the File menu to load your object or scene. Update (7/27/08): Issued fixed in latest version of trueSpace (7.6). tS 7.6 is now freeware and available to the public. Goto Caligari's website to learn more.
