      Hi,

      I'm a "newbie" to sketchup. I took my first class today in Digital Lineaments, and it's looking to be very interesting. I just purchased my first Mac, so learning the OS X software and the correlating programs with my new class should be interesting to say the least. I'm sure I'll be back with questions as the semester progresses. lol

              Hey all!

              Im not really new to SU, but I'm new to these boards. Thought I would pop in and say hello. Maybe learn a few things, perhaps teach a few things. πŸ˜„

                              Hi, as far as I know, the city generator project by some forum members is not complete yet, but you can find the street generator module here:

                                        Hi~
                                        I am transfer student from Korea to America ^^
                                        I have an opportunity to learn Sketchup in University.
                                        I never seen this program in Korea
                                        I want to use it well.
                                        So I have some questions ^^
                                        First one, mine is Sketup 6, so what is difference between version 6 and 7 ?
                                        Second, I heard Sketup can import CAD file, so how about MAX file ?

                                        If I am good at using this program, it is not a big problem to make my work, it will be much easier ^^

                                        I will keep in touching this site usually ^^
                                        I hope so this site gives me some useful informations ^^

                                          Welome!
                                          First, you will want to download version 7 for free. Overall it is faster and more stable. Both versions will import .dwg or .dxf from AutoCad. Usually you want to bring SketchUp into Max and not the other way, but if you must, simply export from Max as a .3ds and import that into SU.
                                          Hope you do well in your class.

                                            Hi,

                                            Just signed up a minute a go.
                                            I am a student from Holland and have a bit of experience with the 3D-CAD program Catia V5. I used it for a internship in Holland.
                                            I always had trouble with some of the functions from the system, it's a good program if you want to calculated the strength of a construction but I think it's to much work for some simple things.

                                            Begin of september I have started a internship in Indonesia, I needed a program to design a workshop and I found sketch-up last week. Really love the program, it has all the things I missed with the other program and have mastered the basics in nearly two evenenings.

                                            Example:

                                            http://img136.imageshack.us/img136/3738/overzichtwerkplaatsv6.jpg

                                            Only having some trouble with uploading my products, sketch-up won't sign me in. I got the username and password right but I shall look in to it this week.

                                            Just a short introducing and gonna take al look at this site, maybe I have a few guestions in the future.

                                            Greets,
                                            Jos
