[Plugin] TextureRandomizer

littleche

Hi TIG

your extention is graet . My problem well solved with this .
A request to develop this extension:
randomiz with select texture and group or component .

thanks

TIG

You can only affect the UV-mapping of a Textured-Material that is applied onto a Face.
As evidenced by the available context-menu 'Texture'...
A Textured-Material applied onto a 'container' [i.e. a Group or Component-Instance] cannot be adjusted - neither using any native tool, nor via the Ruby API.

Sorry

Hi SU2021 needs a *.rbz file.
Even renaming the *rb file to *rbz encounters an install error

Do I miss something?

This is an ancient thread...
But a simple search shows that v1.3 of this tool is available from in PluginStore [that's premade into an RBZ]
https://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=TextureRandomizer

To make any single RB file into an RBZ you need to ZIP the RB then change the file-type suffix to RBZ...
Then install it as from hat file...

OR you could simply put the RB directly into the relevant Plugins folder, and then restart SketchUp so that it loads...

Thanks for your swift reply !

Hi TIG, thanks for the plug-in. It would be handy to have an option to fix the offset for textures evenly within groups.
When you have groups with two or more internal faces often the texture is continuous and due to the way the plug-in is structured now this continuity is interrupted, because the faces are treated separately.
Would it be feasible?

TIG

You can copy the UV mapped texture you've set, using the eyedropper tool that's part of the native Material tool, to select it, then paint the adjacent surfaces with the texture so the UV mapping matches across the facets...

I have not explained myself well, I try to upload a video to explain myself better.

After randomizing, the alignments become misaligned.
An option would be needed to fix one (and only one) random offset for each group / component.

Then the various faces' textures' randomization is no longer random !
They'd all be the same using your rules...
So if that's what you want, edit one face's texture and transfer its UV mapping to other faces using the eyedropper tool...
Then they match, but have a random 'seed' to start with...

Hello,
Just donate to you and don t see button to download

Please help

TIG

The Download button is the red one in the PluginStore listing.
If you are using the ExtensionStore³ then it's a similar button saying Install, as no RBZ is needed as it's done automatically...

Hi, TIG Thanks for the extension
Can you please answer this question please, somebody, asks on my recent video? https://youtu.be/OCmKV7Rb7bQ

"Any idea how this works for attached maps? Like for Enscape? Does the bump map align with the texture?
"
Thanks

TIG

I think there's no connection between the two, but why not try it and report back...

Thanks very much ! Really was looking for a tool like this for easy floor customization...

hi there, its normal that in su 2024 it does not work with nested geometry? groupds and instances only are supported with one depth step
