WebGL4SU - web exporter
Interesting approach.

Will your web exporter also include:

viewing of set SCENES?
sectional cuts of the model in various planes?

The above features are useful and are in:
[Plugin]T2H_EXPORT_WEBGL(Simple Viewer on Web Browser)
http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=323%26amp;t=63763

I look forward to trying your plugin as it offers
a variety of features.

Hi facer,

A camera for each scene is on the drawing board
Clipping planes are complex to implement in three.js, as they involve fragment shaders which are a headache...

Damned cool!
What about the render Engine ?
All is calculated from 0, or an existing render Engine is used somewhere in the code ?

Didier Bur

Hi Pilou,

No render engine is required and no render engine is included in the plugin.
The trick is to use WebGL and Three.js (library of webgl) to send the geometry directly to the GPU via the browser (IE,FF,Safari, etc).
So all you need is SketchUp and a web browser

Eager to know your plugin! There is already a release date?

Didier Bur

Hi Jef,

There's no release date, but reasonably I can say that it will be released before end of June.
There are still some bugs to fix...

Looks great!
Doing this by hand is a real pain.
