Hi  
I have a problem, no idea how to fix it.  
I have only one face in the model, with material (from geo location), and grouped.  
Everything is fine in Sketchup,  
BUT… unfortunately when rendering (vray 5) - texture placement is moving and render is wrong.  
Face is front side,  
material is on the face, not the group.  
I attach 2 PNG display the situation, and the sketchup file itself.

I will appreciate your help.  
Thanks

Thanks.  
I have tried, yet not working 🙁 🙁  
I see that in your computer it works.  
I have send to a friend who has Vray,  
and it works in his computer too.  
But in mine - NO !!!  
More to say, at first it worked and everything was OK, and suddenly yesterday it stopped. It is only part of a very big project, and now I am stuck 😩

OK, I found the solution.  
The diffuse map in Vray was different from the one in Sketchup (I don’t know how and why…).  
So I reloaded the map to be the same one which is in Sketchup, and it WORKS 😇 😇  
Thanks for trying to help me
