Okay. I used to know how to make this go away, but where's the setting to disable the Raytrace Messages?

Nevermind. I found it. You can't disable it while in V-ray, but have to jump back to scanline then disable the message box under the Raytrace Settings.

Whew. Annoying messages boxes are annoying.

More importantly it means you have an architectural, raytrace or other material that needs the scanline raytracer. It's almost certainly on some CAD you have imported into your scene. If your cad never renders it shouldn't be a problem but raytrace and architectural materials have always caused severe problems in V-Ray, so I'd probably replace or remove the materials.

Ah, so if there is a Raytrace material in the CADD data, the Raytrace Message automatically turns on? I guess I can see why that would be useful especially when using V-Ray. Still annoying.
