Wonderfull! Thank you! 🥳

@lightscape Good stuff! Definitely great renders to showcase Rayscaper's capabilities.

A new Mac beta is up: Rayscaper 0.9.102. Same link as before: https://www.rayscaper.com/mac-beta/ What's new since the first beta: Support for SketchUp 2027, next to 2025 and 2026. Fixed a crash when quitting SketchUp 2027. Fixed an error when stopping the render. Fixed Start Render and saving right after installing Rayscaper from the Extension Manager: before, the model didn't save its Rayscaper settings until you restarted SketchUp. If you installed an earlier beta: install this one over it from the Extension Manager, then restart SketchUp. Still looking for Mac users to try it, any feedback is welcome! Cheers, Thomas

Disclosure first: I'm one of the founders of Vizbase, an AI rendering extension for SketchUp, so read this with that in mind. @miikka1978, your point about editing only certain materials or parts of the model is the problem we built around. Vizbase detects the elements in the captured view (walls, floor, ceiling, joinery, furniture) and you set a material for each one, typed, from a reference photo or from a material library, instead of one prompt for the whole image. After rendering, Refine lets you mask an area and change only that. It isn't flawless. On a renovation project last month the first pass dropped a plaster ceiling rose that was in the model, and it took a Refine pass with a reference image to bring it back. And as @Krass says, consistency across several viewpoints is still the hard part for every AI renderer, ours included. Since testing on your own models came up: the free plan has 5 credits a month (up to 10 renders, no card), and the SketchUp extension works on it, so you can try it on your own model without paying. If anyone wants more room for a proper test on a real project, message me and I'll set up free Studio access. Post the results here, good or bad.

Hello, it's time to use Rayscaper

Great plugin, very usefull to prepare mesh for subdivision

Hello, T for tape meter shortcut. Then, like in sketchup. But you won't first see this guide until you clic

Update: another tool is in - Invisible Plane. Select a surface and click Invisible Plane, and the tool creates a plane from it, automatically placed on a tag. You can then draw lines on that plane no matter where you click, so after rotating the camera they are still on the plane instead of ending up somewhere else. The plane can be turned on and off with its tag, or deleted completely. Video: https://youtu.be/GU133K7tTgg Short: https://youtube.com/shorts/YPrrJx6pbM0 I'll keep adding the rest of the tools one by one. Feedback is welcome, especially on which tools you'd like to see next.

New demo video is up, showing the whole workflow from a DWG floor plan to a finished 3D model: https://youtu.be/MTUcujdLiHI The extension is available with a 1-week free trial: https://sabahattin81.gumroad.com/l/gtkygx Feedback and test drawings are very welcome!

Awesome and easy to use Tool. Thank's to Samuel Thallet. Waiting soon for his integration in SketchUp as a plugin.

Hi everyone, I'd like to take a step back and clarify how we hope this early build is viewed. Please keep in mind that this is not a full, finished commercial extension yet. It's an early prototype designed primarily to showcase a specific workflow and design approach for custom furniture. At this stage, our main goal is not to sell a polished product, but to gather your feedback on the core philosophy and speed of assembly: are we solving the right problems, and is this the right direction for custom workshops? We would love to hear your thoughts on whether this concept resonates with your workflow!

Is there a settings section where we can map our own (custom) tags / layers that can then be used by the extensions / plugins?

No problems. It is best to be safe rather than sorry. Have a great weekend!

mise au point.skp bonjour, j'ai le même message d'erreur, mais je ne comprends pas la réponse faite au dessus merci
