[Plugin] Lightbeans
-
Heads up: I just installed this and Enscape refuses to start with any materials in the model that come from Lightbeans when I chose "Enscape" as my Renderer. Tested a model with and without the downloaded materials.
Maybe it comes down to how it is set up for specifying download paths?
-
From my initial setup, I chose "Enscape" as my renderer, assuming this is the method to have it download all material maps (roughness, height, etc). This keeps creating an "Enscape" sub folder within my custom download path.
-
Tried changing the Renderer setting it to "SketchUp only," - Enscape appears to load correctly and it still downloads all the material maps. This method still created a sub folder, still named "Enscape" in my custom download path. ??
Seems a little bugged to me.

Yep. Submitted. Just throwing caution to anyone looking to use this. I think I'd prefer it just be web based and I can import on my own. They sort of allow you to do that now, but you need to input your email and get the auth code first. Seems to be a one time thing, but not sure if that's only per the current session - likely.
Seems to a great resource, though they are clearly selling my info as trade.

If you use the web based resource pages, you need to input your email address for EVERY file download.

Does the use of these textures dramatically increase the file size?
-
I downloaded Lightbeans and it has potential, however if the textures are PBR I have no idea where the textures are stored on my computer. When I think about it it mat not have other maps Ie: normals etc. Is it possible that it only interacts with sketchup? when I download a texture it does not appear in my "downloads" folder

@jsinmichael You have a big choice 2K 4K 6K.............

Any assets added the a skp file will increase file size.
As SketchUp currently only uses a single image as a material the overhead is not as extreme as bundling a full PBR map set.

v1.1.4 released
-
Fixed a bug where certain products were unavailable to download.
-
Now preventing the selection of a download path that could cause Enscape to crash.

The Web catalog is cookie-based. You shouldn't have to enter your email or info every time.
