SketchUp to Píranesí Competition
-
For the sake of the users of the Free version of SU, I have amended the above announcement with the paragraph below:
@sketchucation said:
Sketchup Pro can directly export to EPX, the native file format of Píranesí. Users of the Free version of Google SketchUp can export their models using a plugin downloadable on this page (some workflow suggestions useful for Pro users as well).
Happy sketching and rendering!

Subject: Twilight and Piranesi
I have just read this excellent tip by Shura over the Twilight Render Forum:
@shura said:
Hello Neal,
If you are looking for a workflow to paint into your Twilight render with Piranesi, then try this:
1 Export an Epix file from the view in Sketchup that you want to render
2 Render exactly the same view in Twilight and save the render as bitmap image
3 Open the Epix in Piranesi
4 Import the rendered Image into the Piranesi Epix (a new layer will be created)now you can paint into your Twilight render in Piranesi.
I am using Piranesi 2010 which supports layers, but I dont know if the same process works for older versions without layer support.
Just recently I had a render done where a complex and slender truss came out too bright. Fixing it in Piranesi took only a few minutes.hope this could help
alexFYI; the Piranesi Contest is still open (until the 15th) so if anyone interested, feel welcome to post some entries!
-
Looking forward to seeing the submissions!
-
All entries have been showcased in The Daily CatchUp.
-
I'm so excited! Can't they decide early!
-
OK Tina, I will kick @sses and we decide in time!
-
Have the winners been announced?
-
Yeah!? What's going on? I've been excited since June 15th to find out how everyone did. I don't know how much longer I can wait....the tension is killing me.
-
Sorry guys, one more vote is needed as there were some login problems (as well as me ended up with a couple of days without internet access). I know it's frustrating but please, allow one or two more days.
-
It is disturbing to wait for the result without any precise schedule,for we have cost too much time on it.Maybe the internet is not the only method to decide or vote.
-
Hi Geshu,
I am really sorry for this delay. We indeed had some problems (one judge is no longer working for Piranesi for instance so we had to swap people, set up new permissions etc.) but other than using the internet, there is no solution for us as the judges live in the US, Ireland, UK and Hungary.
We have already voted - now just double checking if the results are correct.
-
Gaieus and everybody：
Please forgive me for being so rash and rude.I was too eager to know the result to consider any other situations
I have to say sorry and thanks to the competition assistants and judges,especially Gaieus. -
No prob, Geshu, I understand your frustration and I am sorry again for this awkward delay.
-
Has there been any word on this?
-
Yes, a couple weeks ago: http://news.sketchucation.com/sketchup-piranesi-competition-results/

Thanks! I didn't even see that.
