Benefits of Pro over Free?

Dear Tom,
Good morning! I see that you are another early riser.
You can find Jim's most excellent script here:

Take time to browse his other offerings. He is both industrious and generous.
Kind regards,

Thanks, Bob. Yeah, seems the older I get, the less I sleep.

Hi Tom, Hi Bob,
@Tom - I know you often model for GE. Note that whenever you take a snapshot from GE, it will also get the location precisely. The script for the Free version (or the Location tab for the Pro verswion) is only important when you don't take the snapshot - i.e. not modeling for GE.
-
Thanks, Gaieus.
-
the advantage of Pro over free is you can use it professionally and charge for your work.

John,
Since SU 6 came out, there is no "non-commercial" limitation on SU Free either.
-
thanks for that info - it would have been very hard to police anyway.
-
sill nobody answered to the question: "Do the people who bought the Pro version think it is worth $500?"
-
I'd say, yes it is worth it if your a professional and you need to be able to export models easily, otherwise it's not worth the money.
-
I suppose it depends on what you use it for. It is really only something you can answer for yourself, all the necessary guidance to make that decision have been given in previous posts.

The answer is simple really, most folk that bought the professional version were indeed using it in a professional capacity and in doing so their workflow would probably require exporting and importing over several other apps in order to deliver the final product. I cannot comment about the Layout feature as I have never had the patience to deal with it and it never yielded anything productive in my hands.
