LumenRT - Don't start compilation ...

leochok

Hello !
I'm new on this forum and I'm French, so sorry for my bad english.
I'm going to explain my problem. I've discovered LumenRT since one week, very good soft ! But my boss wanna an animation. I working with SketchUp so I've made some scene but when I export with LumenRT, the plugin don't start ... Without scene the soft works ! I don't understand ! Have you got the same problem if you had scene in your file ?

Plesae, I need help. I've searched on web, ... no solution ...

I had similar problems with other software, and it was that size of the textures I used were to big, check the size of your scene and the size of textures.

May be the reason.

leochok

My scene is under specifications in the manual (100mx100m) and the compilation works without "scene" for an animation. But when I add only ONE scene, the plug-in doesn't work ... Why ?

Open the Ruby Console and see if you get any error messages.

It's calling View.refresh - which is a method that only exist in SketchUp8.

Considering LumenRT says on their website:

@unknownuser said:

LumenRT Review for SketchUp requires SketchUp 7 or 8 (free or Pro version).

http://www.lumenrt.com/purchase/

...that'd be a bug. (Unless there is a separate installer for SketchUp 8.)

Btw - any reason why you haven't updated to SketchUp8?

leochok

Oh, I didn't know there is a console Indeed there is an error :

showing UI Closing UI start checkDXinstall no need to install dx 43 Error: #<NoMethodError: undefined methodrefresh' for #Sketchup::View:0x5b76dc0>
(eval):1271:in start' (eval):1952:in beginExport'
(eval):1947:in call'

But I don't understand the problem ... can you help me ?

He has SU 7 Pro. Not everyone and always upgrades to the latest when it1s a pay version. I have also "played" this with certain apps: only upgrade after 2-3 new versions.

@leochok: if this is the case, you could at least install SU 8 free and see if it exports from there.

leochok

Yes, there is a reason, because it's a professionnal use and we have only SketchUp 7 licence. But maybe I can compilate with V8. At the time, it's just to try the soft, but my boss could be interested by this soft. I go to try with the V8 and if it works i tell you ! Thanks for your help !

thomthom

Contact LumenRT support and inform them about the error.

leochok

Thanks guys ! I've installed Skup v8 and the plug in works ! The compilation have started I wish there will no problem ! I wait the end of calcul and I'll let you know
