      Hi all,

      You may remember me (or not!) but basically I really enjoyed being a member of this site and used to use SketchUp for fun and work and think my last visit was about 5 years ago. A new job, having a son and general life stuff got in the way of the fun stuff!

      My son is now 4 so I find myself having a [little] bit more time on my hands so one of the things I would like to do is start modelling and rendering again.

      However, I've just tried to download the free version and it's all .... online! WTF?!

      I used to have Pro several years ago when it was about Β£300 but I could everything I wanted to do with the free version and Twilight Render Pro which I also had.

      I've had a browse of the forums but can't really see what my options are? Will the online app do what I want it to do, namely; modelling buildings and scenes and being able to use Twilight?

      Many thanks in advance - apologies if these are ridiculous questions.

        You should use SketchUp MAKE 2017, the last dektop version of the free for personal use MAKE version.

          Welcome back. It's been quieter around here, but more of the same. Many people sharing building and environment render (with Skatter, Thea, Lumion etc.). Maybe fewer people seeking help. SketchUp and the general state of Trimble about the same. Axing the Make version is an example.

                Wait a minute. I need a ruling from the judges on this one. . .you have a 4 year old and think you have more free time? What was I doing wrong? πŸ’š

                If I make it look easy...It is probably easy

                  Ha! I meant my evenings aren't now taken up with going up and down the stairs to change nappies! And I did say a 'little' bit more time! 🀣

                  Thanks for all the comments guys. Slowly re-introducing myself back into world of SU!
