Sketchup 2023 is out!

kaas

Underwhelming but not unexpected. I see no reason to update to 2023.

Now that everybody is on the subscription train, its no more letting your wallet speak for you by skipping a year (or two) until actual good improvements are added. Its pay up or you will loose access to your SketchUp files and you can't edit them anymore-time now.

You can still revert back to your old perpetual license (as long as it's >Su2014) and use the Eneroth plugin to open newer files.
I feel I can happily go on with my SU2021 perpetual and rather invest my moneys in useful plugins.

OK, fixed that by re-setting the "open with" in Windows and now it's all back to normal.

Hello

The link to the quick reference card is broken
Also there is no link to a 2023 viewer

Is it worth?

The help page linked above does suggest VRay is included in the studio license which is a bit far fetched for me.

Obviously it is not.

Rich O Brien

It's Windows only that V-Ray Vision is included...

https://www.sketchup.com/plans-and-pricing/compare

But I don't know to what level of Vray integration does that include. Is it just Vray to SketchUp integration or do you get integration with other modeling apps too?

Mike Amos

From a bit more diggind, it looks like just a fancy viewer with an aim to promote vray.

Granted it's a very clever viewer.
