      Do anyone have recommendation for a way to display my SketchUp models to clients?
      Ideally with these features:

      • Nicer light/shadow (Ambient Occlusion, soft shadows etc)
      • Full screen display
      • 1st person navigation (e.g. WASD/mouse like FPS shooter games)
      • Spacemouse compatible flying
      • Otherwise compatible with SketchUp files (textures, alpha masks etc)

        3D PDF would be my suggestion

        https://www.simlab-soft.com/technologies/simlab-3d-pdf.aspx

        Its the easiest path to success without asking clients to download some additional app to view.

        Simlab has a nice Composer integration too so baking textures and other 'effects' are possible for that wow factor.

        Or you could go bespoke and try using threejs to build your own html viewer. Sam's PBR tool is worth exploring too.
