    BlenderGIS can get you pretty good images.. you do need an API key to get set up but it's all free and you can even generate 3d geometry based on the elevations in the satellite images.. it tiles in blender so you the more you zoom the better the image quality to a point.

    @Leggy @Leggy said: is there a list of the , i dont know, top 25/50/100 extensions to have. I don't have a list that long. Solid Inspector, Solid Inspector2, Solid Solver, Eneroth Solid Tools, Bool Tools2, A bunch of Fredo6's extensions ... @Leggy said: how many do you use? It depends a great deal on the modeling project. Sometimes I don't use any extensions.

    @ArchitectCS said: ArchitectCS Jun 6, 2026, 8:31 AM I have a perpetual license for SketchUp 2018. It is currently loaded on my laptop (since 2018) but I have a second seat and would like to load it onto my newer desktop computer that runs Windows 11. When (and if) you get it to run, I suggest running in compatibility mode for Windows 10.

    I used to use AutoCAD 3D, or 3Ds Max for modeling back then and when a friend asked me to use @lastSfotware (Su 2004), I was shocked that this was too simple to be a serious tool, it seemed like the "Paint".. Then I saw some cool models/renders and realised I know nothing about SU!

    @H-en-I said: it was not neccessary to use Ctrl Since toolbars were made customizeable, Ctrl (on Windows) has always been used as a modifier to copy tools from one toolbar to another.

    @waldessss Have you read the preceding posts in this thread which explain how to do this yourself... Also make sure you have the latest version of the SketchUcation tools installed as this has the newest licensing setup. Restart SketchUp after the installation[s] to sync everything...

    why can't I upload the skp? Ok,so this upload issue is due to a recent update to our forum software. Seems to have affected everyone using this software so expect a fix next week. Until then non-standard file types like skp, obj, fbx etc are not supported until they publish a fix.

You can try http://www.simfonia.fr/SAT/ at https://archive.org/ your best luck! I will see on my own archives but i doubt, it was a some difficult program!

    @lodiv76505 I stopped using Xeon, ECC ram and Quadro (whatever they call them now) based systems a long time ago. For normal CAD/3D use it's just not worth it.
