    Roughness maps to breakup your reflections and Fresnel everywhere it should occur. I'm more a fan of your output than the Adobe user's output. So beauty is in the eye of the beerholder. Irregularity is what pushes a render toward realism. Chromatic aberration and similar camera effects tend to fool the eye more so than colour correction. It's funny that modern day movies shot on 8k RED cameras are super clean and accurate then in post production they add the Kodak LUT to get that 'movie' look we all like. But look up free LUT files and try them out. The colour correction they apply is always really good.

    Did you also install the latest Lib Fredo needed by the tool as a helper, and the latest version of SketchUcation Toolset v4.2.6 needed to properly checking its licensing ? These are both needed for it to run... Restart SketchUp after the extensions are all install and retry... If you have has the extension install previously, even if you have never used it, then its 'trial' date runs from the first installation, not its first use...

    @adkeco said: Does no longer supported mean no longer available? Reason I ask is, I was trying out Cloth works and it says it depends on SketchUcation Tools version 4.0.0 or later. I'm guessing now its impossible to use or licence Cloth Works using Sketchup 2016, as I likely cant even run SketchUcation Tools version 4.0.0 or later anyway. Never mind then. Cheers for your help. Clothworks has been updated to support v4.2.5. SketchUcation supports as many SU versions as feasible. Maybe lobby SU devs to offer an LTS version of SketchUp for users that are not interested in yearly releases or subscriptions.

    @tig said: v4.2.4 is now available through the PluginStore ... It fixes the UNzip error when installing RBZ files in v2017/18... Back in business! (was also able to manage the new Fredo licensing too.) Thanks so much Tig for your tireless service to the Sketchup community. (I still use the Octane Loader plugin you created some time ago - best tool to get an OBJ file out. ) Steve

    [image: g4DN_Shadows_quest_pico.png] Shadows can improve visual appearance of 3D models significantly. On low end devices likes Quest (Stand alone), Pico, Android, and iOS, shadow calculation can reduce responsivity of the device, which may affect the quality of the VR experience. That is why shadows are turned off by default on those devices to give the user the ability to run larger VR experiences. If the user knows models can run fine with shadows on, on those devices, shadow can be enabled by setting shadow quality to high [image: fLUx_shadows_on_quest_plugin.png] Note: To have shadows working, make sure to install the latest viewer on your device from the free VR Viewer page

    Have you had a look at S4U StairMaker (currently V5)? Note: it's not free, purchase link in the description of the extension, currently going for $25 I believe.

    Just thought I'd let you know you prompted me to go looking for the file Sketchtalk.rb AND I've found it! Along with some others that I think also make it work and give other options too. thanks again for your reply, and for increasing my understanding.

    An image used as part of a material is called a 'texture'. There's no bump-maps inside SketchUp. So any image like a JPG or PNG is called a 'texture' when associated with a SketchUp material...

    Did you also install the LibFredo ? Did you restart SketchUp after everything was installed ? There's a Tools submenu containing these tools... There's an optional Toolbar which needs activating...
