[...] I'm also not sure how I can start a render? Is that the force viewport update or am I missing something. The help page on github is not really helping as well. [...]
I added a Workflow section in GitHub README: https://github.com/SamuelTS/SketchUp-PBR-Plugin#workflow

Edit: OK, after replacing the chromium app with the latest from chromium.org the viewport is working!
Next PBR plugin version will include latest Chromium macOS stable version.

So I played around with it a bit. A couple of things I noticed. The suns position doesn't get exported and the UVs aren't coming through correct.
I've added a screenshot. The house is exploded (was a component) but that didn't help.
It looks promising!Best,
Peter

This is a known issue and there is a workaround.

Texture looks weird with perpendicular lines around.
With your preferred photo editing software, resize texture image to a power of 2 in height and width (e.g. 1024x2048, 2048x2048, 4096x4096). Reimport texture image in SketchUp.
