      Hi,

      I'm new to this forum and I ended up here because I can't find any info on my problem.

      I just installed the SketchUp Pro 8 (8 hour trial version) on my mac computer and I also installed the Maxwell render plugin (free version). The plugin is installed correctly, but when I click on the 'Fire' button it says 'loading' for hours and it never actually loads.

      Could this be because it is the trial version? or does it have anything to do with my operative system (OSX 10.6.8)?

      I would really appreciate any help!

      UPDATE: I also tried it on the SketchUp 8 free version and it does not work either.

        This might not be your issue but I was confused by the Fire window when I first used it. When you open the FIRE window you'll see in the top left an orange block that says FIRE and the loading symbol to the right of that. So I assumed it was loading but never did anything. Actually that orange block is a button and FIRE won't start until you push it. The loading symbol is another button to re-export your scene as is necessary when adding geometry for example.

        You may have a genuine bug, but I thought I'd mention this just in case.

          I think I have an actual bug... because the fire button never appears. It won´t even load that.

          thanks though!
