Sorry but this is a Standalone ? A render Only for Sketchup? What is the file format that it can import ?...
And that is commercial prog ?

fluid

Yes, it is standalone and it will be a commercial product. We are in the beta phase, so only the demo is available for non-beta testers. You can import meshes and materials using the .obj file format.

Why do you still support only Intel CPU?
I have amd and can't start your app at it.
