        Hey guys,
        I'm new to the SketchUp forum and wanted to export a sketchup file to blender because I love to use blender as well. I downloaded the .lwo exporter and blender won't open it. Is it supposed to? I thought blender was only supposed to open .blend files and such.
        if there is an exporter from sketchup to blender and someone could help me it would be much appreciated.

              And don't forget the sky color. No HDR's. This settings should work for any
              exteriors.

                    Trying out some lanterns from Google 3D Warehouse. Modified a bit.
                    Needs white frosted glass.

                      Could you use some bumpmaps on those walls? They are great but that would spice up the whole picture big time!

                        Coming along great, some ground textures would make it 'POP' nicely.

                          More bump to walls and floor. Slows processor legs to a crawl. Might need a larger
                          cement slab and door.

                                Yes, definitely better. That close-up wall is just nice!

                                  Here's another render. Im trying to calibrate the correct colors on
                                  the large cube, but unsuccessfull. The cube has a material color set
                                  to (0.8 0.8 0.8). Im trying to use this person's renders as a gauge.

                                  Just a moment...

                                    Added another cube to scene. Sun and sky setting are about right.

                                      It's really coming together very well, it's amazing after a project like this how much one learns.
                                      With the increased realism and path towards scenes like the one you linked above a few previously accepted components like the angular rocks start to stand out, is there any way you can soften or replace them with more freeform ones?

                                      great work.

                                        Thanks Solo,
                                        Ive been think of working on the rocks, but textured UV'S from SU are
                                        not exported correctly into blender or imported correctly into blender
                                        with the python script that blender uses. It makes a big mess with
                                        any textures including the tree textures. Don't know what my next step will
                                        be.

                                            I'm using Apple platform MAC OSX on a PowerPC G5 ... so what I need to know

                                            Please I need a quick reply .. because I have to submit my term project to my instructor soon ... and I'm thinking of submitting a rendered images too along with the main design (2D plans, Sections) then I'm going also to post it here too in this forum in the gallery section.

                                            Please I'll appreciate any reply on my email also just to save time since I check it always
