      Hi there,

      Ok, I have a big problem with textures of the objects what I download from 3d warehouse, directly in Sketchup.
      I download, and the object is on the screen with the texture, OK.
      But I work with Vray, and I need the .jpg or .png file for the diffuse map. And if I click on "browse for Material Image file" button in Materials tools, there is no file... I tried to find the image with the name on my windows browser, and nothing. The unique solution that I've found it's to clik on "Edit texture image on external editor" button, and after that, I can find the image file AppData/local/temp.

      Do you know this problem, and any solution?

        You'll need an extension that will work through your entire model and saving out all textures / images in it to a specified folder, you can then point your rendering engine to that folder. AFAIK there is at least one extension that would do this, the name of which escapes me for the time being (sorry).

          This is a very simple texture writer...
