      I just started re-modeling a pool model I did years ago in College. I'll definitely be taking a look at this and seeing what I can do!

      Now.... what kind of advice do you have on waterfalls? ๐Ÿ˜„

        I rendered it with Podium, but believe that Kerkythea users can also use this model.

        Thanks for sharing, Pete! ๐Ÿ˜„
        Indeed users of Kerkythea can render this model... ๐Ÿ˜‰
        Just played a little with the lightning and material settings, and below you can see the results made with Kerkythea...

            Been trying to download the file from the link, but it seems to automatically remove the zip extension and then says that it is not a SU file...?
            How embarrassing...

            Have I mentioned how much of a laugh I get out of some of the Signatures on here!

                You need to read just above the dowload:

                Remember to remove the .skp and unzip attachment.

                water_test.zip.skp (802.67 KB, 1890 views)


                At the time (more than two years ago), it was not possible to post a .zip file, so it needed to be disguised as a .skp file.

                      In Explorer, open up Folder Options
                      then go to the View tab,
                      then untick "Hide extensions for known file types"

                      Then you can rename "water_test.zip.skp" to "water_test.zip" and unzip it.

                            I think you may have something there. Things like water, paving, grass, ground cover are all usually the weak spots especially in renderings, maybe down the line you could develop the rendering weakspots.

                              On the mac highlite "water_test.zip.skp" by double clicking on it and delete the ".skp"
                              (like I should have done before my earlier post) a dialogue box will come up confirming your choice.

                                I agree , average guy out there wants minimum effort with maximum possible results, minimal learning curve ,SketchUp is there for modeling but still there are weak spots in getting this final output right when rendering and post process is in question. I think there is a great potential market here.
