Linux

Before you run Nuke, you need to perform the following steps:

1. Export the VRAY_FOR_NUKEn_PLUGINS_x64 environment variable and make it point to the vray_builds/my_version/nuke_vray folder where n is the Nuke version (8, 910, 10.5, 10511, etc.).
   Note: This variable can also be set to point to the vray_std folder. This allows the VRayTranslator node can locate the right V-Ray Standalone executable.

2. Add to the NUKE_PATH environment variable the folder vray_builds/my_version/nuke_plugins (example: export NUKE_PATH=/ vray_builds/my_version/nuke_plugins :$NUKE_PATH)
   

3. Add to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable the folder  vray_builds/my_version/nuke_root  (example: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH= /vray_builds/my_version/nuke_root :$LD_LIBRARY_PATH)
   

Previous installations required users to set the VRAY_AUTH_CLIENT_FILE_PATH environment variable to point to a vrlclient.xml file, which contained the V-Ray license server settings. This step is no longer necessary since it is covered when Installing the License Server.
