[Plugin] Sketchup Ivy
-
O.K. This is embarrassing.
How do I open the .rar file?
Do I just drop it in my plugins folder or do I need to do anything else such as extracting it somehow. I downloaded it right to my plugins folder and it doesn't seem to be showing up. -
.rar is a different compression format. Use 7zip or PeaZip to uncompress and then place in plugins folder

So I have to download an extractor? Then I would extract it the same as I would a .zip? Alright. Thanks.

Yes, Windows doesn't extract .rar and many other compression types. Anyway either of those i posted are great alternatives to have.

Yep. Thanks. I got PeaZip seems to work well and looks like a useful tool.

I haven't read through the whole thread so please forgive me if this has been asked and/or solved before.
I play around with my ivy until I am satisfied but when I Shift+Click to create the actual geometry, nothing happens.
Am I doing something wrong? I am running SketchUp 7 on Windows XP and have SketchUp Ivy version 0.6.3. I know you said this isn't tested on SketchUp 7. Is this my problem? -
Nevermind. Works fine in SU 8. Really is a bummer though. Will there ever be support for version 7?

I am following what TIG says, about better test if the variable is NOT 'nil', then i try to fill a variable on the Branch Detail,...and voilaaa.... the Ivy appearing like it should and the SketchUpIvy0.6.3 can work very well now.

i have the same problem. the leaf image its not right.
it apears a rectangle in the limits of the image area, and someones have this white area.
may be ther ins't some details in the instructions
please answer me -
There are some problems with the three ivy leaf skp files pre-provided...
The files are quite large because tif images were used; smaller png images with transparent backgrounds would suffice - these could be edited to fix this.
The other issue is that these skp files currently have the four sides of the rectangular face as regular edges, which will inevitably show up when imported as a component. If the original skp is edited and the four edges selected and made 'hidden' then the imported leaves will no longer shown them [unless of course view>hidden-geometry is 'on' when they'll look like dotted lines]... If you've already got some such leaves imported you can edit them in situ and make their edges hidden - as they are instances, editing one should edit all of its siblings... -
ok, thankyou!
i will try.
someone have one work finished to share? (skp file and jpg image) -

Why can't you edit the three files yourself they are inside the Plugin's subfolder ?
-
i already do that, look this files:

when i render the skb, the rectangles apears again! i guess its vray.. the ocult geometry shows in the process
-
Make sure that the texture's image file has a totally transparent background with ALL pixels completely transparent etc...
-
matidami14, take a look of this, maybe work for you.
the files are in here:

o bad the script doesn't have rotation for the leaves. Something like a min and max, now it always looks really flat and evenly
