    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.

    Ah, the old SU6 bonus packs are available. I needed some of the very low poly cars for some quick and dirty sketching.

    When youve got the brush out you can replace every instance of a texture in your model by holding shift when you paint a surface. Im not entirely sure how it would work with textures within a component, though, so you'd have to do a little playing around.

    It is a good idea, and will be put to use. Something like the following is how it might fit into what I have already: Animation.add('fog', start_value, end_value, duration (frames or seconds), easing_function) Animation.add (...) Animation.play

    @gaieus said: If you just type the number (as Remus suggests), it will set the degree. You can also give the value in focal length if you type mm(millimetre) after the number. If you set the focal length in mm you will afterwards still set the focal length in mm. Doesn't seem to revert back. No in my experience anyway...

    Thank you Remus and Thomthom, I copied the model and pasted it in another new file in SU6. But this has not solved the problem. This is happening only with this particular file. Anyway, I shall manage with SU6 for this file. Because of my slow internet connection I am unable to upload the file. With best regards PRSS

    Well I figured it out by myself...theres a little options button in the export dialog box that I never saw before. Now that I have found that I can now really start using sketchup for my maps and scene backdrops (for D&D games).

    I've had no compatibility problems with Windows7 with the 3D applications I've tried. Sketchup, Rhino, Vue, 3DMax, Bonzai ... there's been some more trials I've tried, but I can't remember right now. Basically - I think that if it worked on Vista it works on W7. The only thing that you need to pay special attention to is applications that require drivers. But usually Vista drivers will work.

    Push Pull through multi-layered walls - How Do I Do It?

    You can. Problem is that one side or that volume you are trying to PP through the wall is somewhere inside the wall. So from the surface, you may be trying to PP it through but then it flips and disappears and appears on the other side. Right click the wall > Hide and PP your volume. Then go to Edit > Unhide and unhide your wall. Note that it's grouped (probably multi layered) so if you want your PP'ed volume to interact with it, you'll need to edit it (or all the groups) first (or copy the volume into the groups) multi layer wall test1.skp

    More into the details; what "screenshot" do you want to use? I mean for a game, I could imagine several ways to export SU geometry/images whatnot but what is called a "screenshot" is not really what one would expect with a game.
