    @Rich-O-Brien Thanks Rich. Now I know that I can share the link with Fredo6 on the Animator thread so he can download the file and look at it (to hopefully identify the problem I have been having trying to generate a video). You might also try generating an Animator video and see what results you get.

    Hey guys I am desperate for very high resolution/quality satellite maps, I use Placemaker and I also use Nearmap but the resolution is not that great, I have tried using AI to upscale but that too does not really solve my issues. Is there another solution?

    Hey Mike, I'm sure you figured this out already, but when you first create the attribute type a number with the inch mark like 0" or 0' in the value box and hit enter. This will set the unit for that attribute to inches. This only works for the first time a value is entered. After that first initial value, you will need to use the attribute info dialog to make changes. In addition, you can use 0 to set it to text (not "Default: Text") and 0cm to set it to centimeters. If anyone knows a shortcut for setting the unit to Decimal Number, I would love to hear it!

    so that hasn't done the trick, the attachment here shows its in. Also on the left I've included your pic your plugin folder. I may just highlighting my lack of knowledge on the subject here, but an icon seems different to yours - see freescale.plugin. would that be it? I also get please install progressbar.rb from smustard which you can see i have. [image: fWNV_screengrabpluginfolder2.jpg]

    mmm... I've had quite a few issues with imported DWG from AutoCAD or other applications. (blocks with origin point far of would make the blocks, converted into components in SU jitter and do all sorts of weirdness.) My workflow for importing DWG is: Copy only the required data to a fresh new DWG file. Then Purge in AutoCAD. Open a new instance of SketchUp, import the DWG, delete unwanted garbage the import brought along Purge the SU model Copy to the working model That normally get rids of most problems.

    @solo said: Never seen this either, must be a video card issue. There is no way to upgrade you GPU on a Mac? I cannot confirm this as I always assumed Mac's updates included current firmware and drivers. what i meant is that the user cannot download a driver and update his card. the updates are probably included on each system upgrade.

    Replacing them would probably be a good start, checking the face direction as hebrides said wouldnt hurt either.

    @kustura said: WD is fine I second that. I've already killed three Maxtor hard drives, and a Samsung one, but Western Digital hasn't failed me. That's what happens when you work with 3D Walkthroughs and often move/edit Gigas of data. I agree that the Core 2 Quad Q6600 and the Core i7 920 are the two best "bang-for-your-buck" CPUs right now. If you check the charts at TomsHardware.com, you'll see that the Core i7 920 is 54% faster than the Q6600 in 3D rendering. Since the difference in price between the two is only $82, I'd highly recommend you buy the Core i7 920. Compared to CPUs in that price range just a couple of years ago, it's like having a small render farm at home. In fact, your programs will see the Core i7 920 as having 8 logical cores, not 4, as each physical core can handle two threads. It also consumes less power than the Q6600, according to an Amazon review. If you're going to skimp on something, that should be the graphics card, as it is not used during rendering. Even navigation within SketchUp and 3dsMAX seems to be far more CPU intensive than graphics card intensive. Just make sure the card you buy is HDCP compliant, as at some point you'll want to watch Blu-rays on your PC.

    Is that the sky you see in the window? You should get an alpha channel you can use if you have it enabled in the VFB section of V-Ray.

    Henry, one thing you always need to keep in mind; layers don't separate geometry in SU at all - they just control visibility. Therefore if you have basic ("primitive", "raw" - i.e. ungrouped) geometry within your model, you shouldn't put different parts of it on different layers because these parts - though on different (sometimes hidden) layers - still interact with each other. See this video for basic ideas and mistakes to avoid: [flash=425,344:3m1el3he]http://www.youtube.com/v/fBdP499iw0Y&hl=en&fs=1[/flash:3m1el3he]

    Welcome, rejdavid. I think makehuman is what you're looking for: http://www.makehuman.org/blog/index.php When you're finished configurating your model, save it as OBJ (click the OBJ disk icon, hit Enter to save in the default path) and then import it into SketchUp using the OBJ importer: http://www.scriptspot.com/sketchup/script/obj-importer

    I don't know anything about the inner workings of SU either, but I would guess that to display a shadow from an edge, the app has to treat it like a thin face, about similar as when exporting a model with the "export standalone edges" enabled. So I would use it only when absolutely necessary. Anssi

    @jcarchitecture said: When you say make sure the front faces out, how do I determine that?? Oh and by the way thanks alot for responding so fast, it's really appreciated....I'm trying out the render click the icon circled in red. your front faces will show in white and backfaces will show blueish purple. you can select a face then right click and choose reverse faces. it is generally considered good practice to never have backfaces facing you. sooner or later you will run into problems when rendering with most renderers, they will either render white or black no matter how you texture them.

    If I'm not mistaken once you've imported the texture into your SU file you can right click on that texture in your Materials panel and theres a Save As option or something like that. Click that and you can browse through your folders until you find SU's Materials folder and drop it in the appropriate one, or make a new one. -Brodie
