Sketch Up V1
-
Does anyone have a copy of Sketch Up V1?
Why do you ask?
Well I need to teach people who have never used 3D programmes before and when they use SU V6 sandbox confuses them and they are always calling me over to sort issues out. So I want them to learn how to build slopes etc without all the fanciness of V6.
Can anyone help?
(PS I learnt on V1 and I want everyone to experience it so the appreciate V6 much more)
-
Why not just hide the sandbox tools? Window>>Preferences>>Untick Sandbox Tools. I almost never them myself. I think being made to use SU V.1 would be demoralising now- no transparent materials, very basic material editor, no intersect, no AA output, the list goes on...
-
I used to have a link to older versions of SketchUp that is no longer working now. It leads straight to version 6.
Nevertheless, if I remember well, there were no version 1 download. It started on version 2.
and I have it
-
They used to have a link to legacy versions, but I think it only went back to V3 at the earliest. I can't find it now though.
The problem is that everything before V6 is going to be 8 hour trial only, which may not be enough time.As Jackson said, much better just to turn off all the Extensions in System Preferences.

Thanks guys,
I know i could just turn it off but I want to be harsh.
Juan, I'll PM you with my email.
Thanks again

Dave, everyone know's that's the first beta of Sketchup(V0.05) You've got there. The original SketchUp (V0.01 Alpha) is this:

Very good.

shouldnt laugh dave, there was some fine work produced by those early masters: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cave_paintings

I have a v5 free which does not have the sandbox tools - but then id does not have animation export, Options (sizes) for 2D export, location, print to scale and of course the exporters either.
-
At Google's 3dBaseCamp I suggested they (Google) should locate all previous versions and create some sort of online museum. What I was told was the early stuff won't run on contemporary machines. I suppose if you were still running Windows98 you might get v1 or 2 to run.
For the class I'd stick with version 6 and as Jackson says, just turn off the sandbox tools. Furthermore, for a simpler interface, you could take some care in setting up the toolbars. For instance maybe initially you wouldn't need the 'views','facestyle' or 'shadows' tools. They're really advanced features for class number two.

I did run version 2 in my pc vista premium
not now for the time has expired.
though they are still ways to let them run.
I am after it.

That is a very good point Ross.
Maybe i should change my lesson plan to teach more manual modeling. I don't get much time to prepare and even less time to teach.
I like the museum idea, i sure you can get emulators to run the early versions if newer machines can't run them.
-
did you get my e_mail Tobobo ?
-
Another thing to remember is newer versions are definitely more stable. The changes from version-to-version included improvements that made SU progressively more stable. I'd really stay away from the older stuff.
Regards, Ross

Ross is right here. In addition you will continually run into situations where a student wants to do something but the previous versions are not capable and you will constantly be saying or tempted to say "but that was fixed in version 4" or "Now in version 6 that's easy to do" Plus I think it's your responsibility as an educator to be teaching current technology as much as feasible.
My 2 cents
-
yes.
Those old versions, 2 and 3, are to be kept as remembrances of how SketchUp grew.@unknownuser said:
Most confindent for me is number 4 for there there Is the ruby.
The path gone from there on has lead us to our present confused situation.
5 and 6 lack of interest and are, much more the version 6, full of distractions.
(my opinion)
