      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. πŸ˜„

        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.

          Ah thank you! I should've read the documentation better... 😳
          I will try it again.

                                          I've downloaded the plugin and seems successfully installed but I'm unable to get a viewport to open. I've applied a PBR material and click on Reopen Viewport from the toolbar. I get a dialog box with "Propagate materials to whole model (Recommended)". Whether I select Yes or No, nothing happens. It's likely I'm not following the correct procedure?

                                            PBR plugin requires this other plugin : glTF Exporter. Do you have installed it?
