      You can also try the new free Autodesk 123D ๐Ÿ˜‰
      It can reload a skp file and have yet something for a neat render in simple space
      then... ๐Ÿ˜‰

        two more
        LuxRender http://www.luxrender.net/
        There is an Su2Lux plugin, and some users in these forums.

        Mitsuba http://www.mitsuba-renderer.org/
        uses DAE Collada format, but very much beta, and no recent updates.

        All have relatively steep learning curves, though.

                   There ARE no  F R E E rendering plugins for Sketchup.  The prices start at $150 on up to $1000.   Out of curiosity, I checked myself.  Sorry to bust your bubble.

                  Twilight Render v2 Hobby is now a fully featured free product, with a inexpensive upgrade to the full Pro version. Well worth trying.

                              Kris, your list has Maxwell at $775. That is for the full suite. The standalone engine\plugin for SU is $99. Might want to list them both. ๐Ÿ˜‰

                                  No problem. I have the $99 version and it's a damn good, low cost option that can good work with a bit of set up.
