      Hi there folks,

      I'm very new to the maxwell render plugin. I'm using it on Sketchup 8 on mac OS lion

      My problem is, once I have a finished render in the FIRE screen I hit the save icon. It asks me to give the file a name and to choose where to save it. All very normal, but when I hit save the following text comes up in a sketchup box thing on my screen

      '' is not a valid type. Do you wish to choose another?

      Anyone got any ideas?

      cheers

        You have to manually give it a file extension as well (".jpg", ".png", etc.)

        Best,
        Jason.

            Hi

            I have a similar problem.(On PC with SketchUp8 and Maxwell Free Plugin) I tried to give it a file extension (.jpg)but it keeps telling me --> "The specified directory 😄 \ blabla ... does not exist" I´m going mad I just want it to save the image without the BS!

            Has anybody had the same problem? If so how did you solve it?
