      Hi Gaieus!
      Apologies for a late reply.
      Anyway, as promised earlier, here's the rock model I have in SketchUp.
      This was generated in Acropora and then imported the mesh in SU.
      AQlso attached is the rock texture.
      Please find out if the "warped" map happens when you apply the texture on the model.
      Let me know what you come up with.

      Thanks!

      All the best,
      Andy

        Forgot to mention - to import the .obj file in Blender 2.5 first open it in LithUnwrap, then save it again as .obj. When I tried to open directly in Blender there is an error.

                Just an idea that stemmed from another topic on the UV mapping facilities in SU (or lack thereof). Is it possible to call an external program with Ruby, in the same way you can call an image editor in Preferences?
                If so, it would be really cool if some kind of .ini file could be added to the obj export command, so that exporting the UVs to obj automatically fired up UU3D (for example) and opened the proxy. I know that might not be possible for all UV editors as some don't open obj files, merely import them; but even if we had to write the path manually in some preference file, it would make for a much smoother workflow and effectively give SU an internal UV mapping module.
                This is a great plugin BTW. I haven't come across any glitches in it yet, in well over a year...even exporting entire people mapped from head to foot.

                    Ooooo!!! I must upgrade. Can it handle V8 files yet? Well somebody recognizes a gap in the market even if Google doesn't...and given the now huge list of import/export formats, there's little sense in Google limiting the export options of the free version.

                                  You may need to download the plugin for it at the bottom of this page:

                                    I don't know if i'm blind or simply stupid, but I can't find any SketchUp export options in Ultimate Unwrap?

                                    It wasnt clear that all plugins had to be downloaded separately.

                                      Lot's to get to grips with in UU3D. An extensive tutorial showing the whole process would help (from an SU point of view). Or if any knows of some good tutorials let me know.

                                          It's a plugin i'm writing called 'Visualisationizer'. It uses voice recognition also so you can leave your shortcut hand on your crotch πŸ‘

                                          It's a bit buggy because anytime a say 'Push/Pull' it says 'make up your mind'.... πŸ˜’
