Wrap-R for SketchUp
-
-
I just discovered this awesome looking plugin. I got the trial version and started playing with this. Usually when I'm making a game asset, I make the texture map first and adjust as I go along. I would usually do my UV mapping in Blender where I could move the islands to where I want them within the texture. But when I start WrapR, the texture I assigned in Sketchup does not show up in WrapR and the "Sketchup Texture" option is greyed out. How do I bring in my texture after launching WrapR from Sketchup?
BTW, the help button takes me to the home page and I don't see an obvious way to navigate to the user guide from there. Is there any more documentation for this that explain working with textures?

Make sure your texture is square 1 : 1
For documentation see : https://wrap-r.com/docs-wrapr-sketchup.html
Still not complete as I've more to add soon

Ah...my texture is 1:2. Sometimes I need the room. Any chance to support textures beyondn 1:1 dimensions in the future? Or is it because of the 1:0 space thing?

Ok, thank you!

Wrap-R is beautiful to work with. Amazing little thing with a very intuitive workflow based on Blender's but with the Sketchup user in mind...

Wrap-R OSX version, please!

Hi Rich,
I was wondering if an update was in the pipeline... has the new SU SDK allowed too improve on packing/optimzing UV algorithms?
-
I already replied to your email.
But we have to wait for the next SDK to see what goodies SU expose to us.
We do have a new unwrapping method for non-manifold meshes. But having a Smart Unwrap method is the goal to minimize to workflow for those that need very quick and dirty unwrapping.
-
Yup, I know.
I just wanted to launch a beacon here to tell others that info, in case they were wondering...

I recently re-discoverd Wrapr and I'm loving it - great tool! Any chance non-square textures will be supported? (2048x1024)

Ah! I forgot to post the final result...

Question: will there be an update for 2019 soon OR should we use the 2018 Wrap-r version?
