Hello TIG, thanks for your response. I recently upgraded my sketchup from 2016 to 2018 but I never use it when I'm online (only for activation). I use a tablet to download from and surf on the internet. I do have the sketchup viewer for Android installed on my tablet, maybe that is what's causing my problem. Once I change the extension from .skp to .rbz on my desktop the computer uses the correct diamond-symbols to identify .rbz's. by the way: thanks for your awesome contributions to the sketchupcommunity: split to plane is my personal favorite. kind regards, Folchert Dreise

@pixero said: Have you tried changing the scale of imported objects. from mm to m for example. From experience I know that scaling imported geometry can lead to strange things later on so its best to get the import right from the beginning. IF you import something at the wrong scale it can be good to use a script that scales the definition. (Can't remember the name of it but you'll probably find it by searching for scale definition.) That resets the scale of the scaled-down object to 1. Thanks! I will look for and try those plugin you mentioned. Cheers!

still nobbody uses Sketchfab in this way?

Hallo guys, Just playing around with Enscape and is quite amazed of it's simplicity and quality if tweaked correctly. Does anyone have any problems regarding amount of proxies from Skatter? I have a scene where only some is loaded into Enscape even though it works in other render plugins like Thea render... [image: zkVe_Enscape_testedit.jpg]

Thank you very much for your answer. Yes that's what I thought I should do. However, I thought that maybe a plugin could help me to avoid manual drawing as I am trying to get more than version of this shape... Also I think the main issue here is to connect the 2 cones with one shape based on a curve that joins them... My non-mathematical intuition also, tells me that it should be paraboloid hyperbolic or something like that. Thank you again for your help. Anyone else could help me on that ? Thanks

Hi Guys, After reading the suggestions and tried different ways I still cannot figure out how to solve this thedious problem. Here you can find the "Ruby console" output. Closing UI Starting Export Error: #<NameError: uninitialized constant LumenRT2015::VueExportGUI::Main> e:/program files/e-on software/lumenrt 2015/lumenrt/export/skp/ruby/lumenrt_ui.rbs:477:in showUI' e:/program files/e-on software/lumenrt 2015/lumenrt/export/skp/ruby/lumenrt_menu.rbs:139:in lumenRT_exportModel' e:/program files/e-on software/lumenrt 2015/lumenrt/export/skp/ruby/lumenrt_menu.rbs:535:in block in <module:LumenRT2015>' SketchUp:1:in call' All the best.

I use Simsolid, You export your model as an STL file. upload it into simsolid and go to town. You can try it out for free for like 30 days. But the program is kinda pricey. You also have to be super careful with your Sketchup model. All groups and components must be clean and show a volume in your entity info tray. I use solid inspector to help double check.

Please post an image and an Skp (save as V6) of what do you want! A text is very poor for describe something! And for a no native language that is a nightmare! A profile is 2D a Cylinder is 3D ... ??? And modelize something is time losted for helpers! When you edit a Component (Assemblies or not) seems there is no problem ?

My set of soft I usually use: Unfold3D - Very nice tool for UV mapping. Funny, when I tried to find a link to it's offical site I relized that now it's called RizomUV, but I use Unfold V10 Artec Studio - As I use a 3d scanner I need a software for it. Really great to use but damn resource intensive. Substance Painter - Tried differen texturing software - ended up with Substance. Marmoset Toolbag - I use it as finakl render, and sometimes for baking normals. In sone cases it gives the best results..

I'm not sure the best idea is to hack the script; rather wait til the developer gets back from basecamp themselves...

check in Sketchup what the face orientation may be, i.e. if those are oreinted correctly and not backfaces

I found the info via the Sketchucation store, I like what I am seeing, it reminds me of sketchy physics, even though it is a totally new app. I remember spending hours working with SP

From one of the SketchUp developers (jbacus) over in the SketchUp forums: "I am keen to support end-user development in SketchUp for Web in the future, but as you guys have seen me say several times already, this is a tough project that isn’t going to come soon. We’re much more able to implement the sort of features that are most commonly accessed through an extension right in the core application. That’s the path we’re on for now." https://forums.sketchup.com/t/what-s-up-with-sketchup-make/55219/906

@haithamanwer said: i know the cross reference organizer, but its not quite what i am looking for. but since these two plugins (xref manager & cross reference organizer) are the only two available i am using a hybrid workflow that rely on both of them and so far things are a bit smoother. There is also Eneroth Reference Manager that seems like it has the same type functions as XREFs, but I have no experience with it.

ConDoc uses a type of Style hack to create hatching that Skalp doesn't play nice with. No info on v4 though. It requires you to adopt Mike's workflow to modeling etc to really benefit from it. Cool tool though.

Thanks guys, I remembered seeing something, but couldn't remember where/what.

Maybe try finding a older version of the site thru wayback machine. archive.org

Hi Dezmo, Thanks for your reply. I have tried you suggestion but this creates other Sketchup windows to shrink or oversize too. Thus, I left the compatibility as it was before. Regards Leandro

Your thread title says PDR your post says PBR! Which is and what is it? Knowing what the extension is would help us tell you if there is an older version that would work with your system or if there was another extension that would do what you need. But from the information given, Pilou has given you the only answer possible.

@rv1974 said: Too bad all PB related discussions are gone. I could find this one only via external search. Conflict of interests with Whaat? What conflict of interests? He has a beta testing forum that he may make public. That's up to him.
