Vray for SketchUp Error -->700: Could not release device buffer

[mfickers]

Hi,

I am currently trying to render a few images with Vray for SketchUp. Last week the same pictures worked fine. I had just made a new variant in SketchUp and adjusted the scenes accordingly (the position of the camera was not changed)
Now I either get this error message :
20.5.2025 11:23:55 Error [V-Ray] [MemoryManagerGpu::releaseUnmappedMemoryFromInstanc e] 700: Could not release device buffer

or the image is simply completely black after a very short rendering process.

What could be the reason? I’m not a pro with Vray yet, but so far my renders have worked.

Thank you

Shut down SKP. Reboot machine. Report back.

I’ve already done this several times, nothing changed.

Have you contacted Chaos Group’s Customer Support for Vray?

I’d guess you are running out of memory somehow.
Update your Nvidia drivers to the latest

You can also enable the option to use your system memory for textures

did the update, still the same.

I’m going to do that now. Thanks
