Can I save each frame as a scene in Sketchup ?
How to take each frame seperately to actually create scenes from them ?

This is not possible with the current version of Animator.
Anyway, it would create potentially hundreds of scenes.

That's a tricky one, because you animate 2 groups separately and then wants that they are animated together. So, it might not be obvious to manage, although I think it is possible (but probably not straightforward).

I'll have a lookas soon as I can.

I downloaded a new copy of FFmpeg from here https://www.ffmpeg.org/download.html#build-windows

AND

Maybe more importantly I just waited for the cmd windows to close by themselves. I think the slower your PC and the bigger the video the longer they will stay open. Just have some patience and let FFmpeg run and all good.

Im curious about this as well. Loving the Animator plugin, but its a very slow process when my computer only uses my CPU (8c/16t) to render the frames as opposed to my RTX3070

For the time being, this is the only possible mechanism to generate the rendered video.

Glad to fear you have it working. 👍

Hope my info about the difference in the way to use the tools was helpful as well.

You've bigger problems to sort first. Like the username....

我使用的SketchUp版本是2021.1.332;vray版本是5.2.3

Hi, I am using SU8PRO and I was wondering if anyone have the release to Animator that works with SU8 .
I'm guessing that would be around 1.6/7?

fingers crossed!

I don't think there was, and anyway, Animator is not supporting Sketchup version prior to SU2017. You can use SU2017 Make, which is free.

Thanks Rich.
This is pretty much how I ended up solving it. I think the term individual had me thinking I had to do each prop individually, rather than selecting them all .

so the animator is only for motion animation, not for physical formulas...(although I've worked in it a bit myself). Take a closer look at the MSPhysics plugin, that's where you can play with your movements to your heart's content))
