SketchUp game exporter (Source)

No I meant Ive converted it to a cgf file but still dont know where and how to do to import it in Sandbox.

I dont think you can...
Not officially anyway.

Something I was working on today
Wall-E is hours of work getting a good model that would be optimized in for a game. He is still far from finished though.
I used parts from a few different Wall-E's in the 3D warehouse.
sella, FarCry2 does not have a sandbox editor (It was not made by Crytek)
FarCry2 only has a very basic sim-cities style map editor.
SandBox2 from Crytek is more of a whole game editor.Pixero, once you have your CGF in the \Game\wherever folder, place a "brush" entity.
Then change the model of that brush to the CGF you created.
Though my work today I discovered that components don't export, but groups do.
Wall-E up there is made of 22 separate components exported and converted. -
Did anyone else on these forums manage to produce anything with the Crysis engine from sketchup models?
-
Sorry I just wanted to say, thanks for sharing this plugin! It's great! I've got a small job making props for a mod called 'Aperture-M', a multiplayer portal.
-
I never ended up trying because Crysis runs so slow on my comp. I should try it though, just to get it working.

Yea I have, But only very basic models. And I haven't worked out textures. Also once inside the building the walls disappear, weird.
But having much more fun doing the topographical height maps at the moment and using standard models.

Check out the latest alpha of PlayUp. You can export to SB2 directly from SU now, although collision isn't in yet.

Yeah just worked it out! Dumb is me!

thanks so much zapwizard!
i'm going to put this to use for sure. Just imported a little pagoda into the sandbox
-
It seems that the PlayUptools are now updated and you can import a Sketchup model with textures and all straight into the sandbox 2 editor.
---> http://playuptools.blogspot.com/2009/03/cryengine-mini-update.htmlDid anyone try to use it for realtime VIZ yet? Preferably on an architectural model? (screenshots?)
Since I left my copy of Crysis in Belgium when coming to Australia, I would love to know if it is worth to buy a new copy.... -
I've just done small test nothing to show yet but its interesting now if SU import is easier. Will test this when time gives...

-
BTW I hope your having a shot at learning to surf while here! WA has some great beaches?
Actually funny I say that - haven't been on a board myself for about 20years!
So back on topic! Yes has anyone had success in arch vis with crysis yet?
-
I keep thinking about sitting down and working it out.....but I still have not just done it. I was so excited about it that I went out and bought Crysis and everything. Oh well, maybe someday I'll get to it

yes sure,
last year i did it via dwg-export -> 3dsmax -> sandbox
result: picture1by now i use zapwizzards way by the use of the collada converter.
result: picture2still i wish sketchup would support better exports in different formats
or a tool that helps optimizing export for cryengine more easily.
collada is still not meant to be a su->ce2 converter...cheers
