Oh good, I'm glad you found a link to this (via Mike's link). This is a software/webite that Jody Gates of Google told me that he uses to do all his SketchUp tutorials anymore. I have been trying to remeber what it was called and kept coming up blank. Its made by the camtasia folks, so its good quality. Thanks for repeating the link here. I've been looking for this,
Chris

Microsofts directx file format, for game engines and such.
(I think there is a .x importer exporter for SketchUp.)
The great thing with three[d] is that it exports animated trees that looks like the wind is blowing.
I've done some tests with it and DX Studio and exported buildings from SketchUp.
Nothing to show yet though.While I'm at it DX Studio http://www.dxstudio.com is a program for making realtime visualisations and such. Also comes in a free version with some limitations but great for trying/learning it. (New version to be out in september.)
so is there a way of opening these files in sketchup? as all i can seem to do is export the sketchup to .x and not the otherway round.
getting a little confused! he he
cheers

Well enough people have used it and said they like it for me to be able to recommend it here.
Its party piece is running each tab as a separate process. Essentially this means that if one tab messes up its jsut that tab that goes down, rather than the whole browser.
It also has a super fast javascript engine (called V8) that is very good for running things like gmail, google apps etc. (no surprises there.)
Overall its also a very fast browser that is certainly worth a try (even if you really really really like FF/opera.)

winrar, its got to be one of the best archiver type programs out there. Will compress/decompress nearly any format (every format i've ever come across at least.) Loads of features, easy to use and free. Not a lot more you could ask for really.
Remus,
Its not free I payed 30 something $ for it, but its worth it. -
I have it for free too.
The only thing that happens is that it reminds me it would be good to buy it. But it has not stop working since I started to use it.
(I am talking for years)
That is a friend indeed

I downloaded the free learning edition and on install my 'Onecare' virus detector went haywire and I chose the abort and clean option.

Perhaps it is the education version im thinking of, as i certainly got it for free (and legally.)
Edit: sorry, i didnt read your post properly, i thought you were talking about houdini mateo.
Just to clarify, ive had this same version for quite a while, and as juan said it just give you this little popup thing every time you open a file. A little bit annoying but i can live with it.
