Thanks for your reply TIG, this is very nice script, its a Great Help. Thanks a lot. It works fine although it took too long in processing but you will also satisfied with the output. I'm very impress of what you did TIG,your truly "The Incredible Giant".
3deviator, use the reply (or quote) buttons to reply a post, not the report function, please. (I know, this needs some sort of routine, too). I had to copy/paste/change poster and all for the above post...
Cheers
ohh! im so sory sir Gaieus, i dont intend to do that, I'm just confuse, if where is the button to reply for a specific post. im so sory for that sir. how can i delete that post sir?

Hi TIG,
First:(I wrote to you in another thread, about the texture mapping import)
After testing the last days with Maya 2009 I can say the following:
Your Plugin imports the Geometry very fine and accurate, and it additionally imports the maya mental ray shader I used there. If the shader has only normal mapping applied without diffuse mapping, on import the mapping seems to get lost. When i applied the same map to the diffuse channel it worked, but:The texture mapping is applied to the shader, not to the object, because when i replace the shader in SU 8, the texture mapping gets lost.
When I tried to render the object in SU 8 with V-Ray 1.49.91 it did work for hours, but could not complete the Render. When I replace the imported shader with a new one with same textures applied, it renders in usual time, but - as i said - the mapping is lost.
am I doing something wrong?
thx again for your great plugin!
cheers, 3rdEye -
Hi TIG
I Have little problem when import a complex big obj file
its very heavy in my little machines..
I made the obj from ivy generator filling full a wall which dimension 5 x 12 meter2

With complex data it takes time...
Try simpler forms...
OR wait overnight...

Ivy generator creates extremely complex geometry (mostly unusable in SU actually).

Here's v1.9 http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=172790#p172790
A glitch with occasional 'reversed faces' on import has been addresses... -
TIG, the fixtreed.rb is fantastic! The script eliminates several steps from a fairly lengthy process I developed to use Tree[d] models. Thank you!

Hi TIG!
There are problems with import of this file. Familiarize please, and whether it is possible that or to make?
In advance thanks!

Sorry! I forget attach file

You only included the OBJ file !
Therefore when it imports there is no MTL to set materials and of course NO texture/image files either...
Here is what imports with what you supplied.
The trunk is there and I suspect the branches/leaves too [as the rectangular slabs at various angles], BUT these need to have PNG texture materials with transparency to look right.
Also the app that has made these triangulated faces AND reversed one part - this is fixable using the 'tree[d]' techniques described in the recent thread BUT you need the OBJ file, the MTL file and the images specified in the MTL file in a subfolder IF given in the MTL; then process the import to remove the coplanar edge, add the material to BOTH sides of the face and hide edges etc..........
This is the present version

FixtreeD.rb works well with OBJ importer's imports of Xfrog plants as well
Thanks -
from 3ds max, how do you export the files properly to have all the textures? in max it is properly textured but when you import to sketchup there is no texture. is it possible?
-
Thanks TIG. Your generous plugins and help on this forum have been invaluable to me. Much appreciated.

Don't laugh but I'm getting 'Error: 666' in the Ruby console? Some files import but most don't? They're fine in Modo and 3DS Max?
-
Those must be some evil files, Rich. Pray to St Patrick today

The '666' is my joke error value - it means I don't know what the bleep is causing this but I'll struggle on regardless !
It is quite possible to get some 666 error messages but to end up with what appears to be a perfect result anyway. Some OBJ files seem to have a few faces coded in an awkward way that won't get made - usually too small to handle or perhaps with three effectively co-linear points - I can trap for these but NOT 'fix' them - so it just puts '666' when it is presented with one that fails... Do you say that some files fail completely? Can you post or PM me one so I can test with perhaps so more helpful error messages temporarily allowed on my own setup... Have you tried just doing the import as a 'mesh' - this can overcome some issues with this type of problem... -
TIG, thanks for this importer. I am playing with the "3D Modeling with Silhouettes" application, and using your plugin to bring its models into sketchup.

Hei TIG, sorry to bother...
I can run your script easily, but at the end of the transformation progress SU exits giving a BUGsplat message... How can I fix this? -

Have you tried the OBJimporter by Fluidimporter http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=316470#p316470 that is quicker and less prone to error than my old thing... -
No I didn't! I'll try that thanks!
