      Just the native render options, alone, in this makes Sketchup look a little sad.... 😞

          I know this is perhaps a bit over the top, but this link shows what blender can do Ultimately, all within the program

            Something to keep in mind, all software, just like any analog tool, is only as good as how well you learn how to use it. The correct hammer and chisel in untrained hands will reveal a driveway from a block of marble instead of a David.

              Of course thats why I started my post with, "I know this is perhaps a bit over the top" I was trying to convey the program's potential not necessarily our potential to produce this standard, of course πŸ˜‰

                I usually hop from sketchup (make) to Blender, and it is rather painless, apart some quirks. Blender accepts .dae rather well. Instead I've had problems with exports from Sketchup to DAZ Studio, which is strange, since both programs use .dae as the default format. Any idea?

                  I'm betting only part of the model comes in.

                  and I'm thinking, you make your models multi coloured...? and I'll say of you keep them default white they load fine..

                  yup ran into that when I tried it. seems (from my limited understanding) SU puts out a DAE with each colour as an object and DS has issues with the way it's doing that.

                      Pilou, are you saying (showing us) that Blender has the ability to print documents like LayOut?

                                  I just bought Chip Walters Blender video course and so far I'm enjoying it.
                                  Much info in a short time so I'm sure I have to go back to remember everything.

                                  Right now there is a reduced price also.

                                    Some of us just need a driveway ( I could use a new one, concrete not marble). And a forum is helpful for learning how. Not much help in getting a David though (I'd need a TON more to get there myself πŸ˜› )

                                      Hey all,

                                      As many of you may know, I have a course that takes you from modeling in SketchUp to rendering and animating using EEVEE (Blender's realtime photorealistic renderer) in Blender.

                                      It's at https://gum.co/EEVEE

                                      Also, here's one of the lessons from the course which may get some of you started. It's on IMPORTING from SketchUp to Blender while keeping the proper scale units.

                                      Currently working with Cross-Reality technologies

                                            the main problem is, DAE is a poorly supported format.

                                            no no! hear me out!

                                            there's plenty of apps that write DAE.. but damn few that read it.

                                            but there's plenty that do read OBJ - it's the almost universal 3D format..
