Interactive IES Lights
-
LightUp v4 (Macintosh and Windows) has been released and has a great new feature of being able to interactively adjust lighting right inside the SketchUp viewport. You can assign IES profiles, change colors and move lights around while inside LightUp's sharp, anti-aliased realtime rendering.
As well as adjusting lights, you can change any of the other rendering settings and instantly see the results which massively accelerates the iteration cycle on getting 'the look' you're after.
Once you're happy with the lighting, you can do a full bake of the entire model to make Movies, export as to LightUp Player etc.

FYI Users have pointed out that on a Macbook, to access F5, you need to hold down the 'fn' key in the lower left corner of the keyboard while pressing F5.
