Wow! Amazing textures! Thanks!

There is something wrong with lights. Probably background image needs a bit more brightnes.
Do something with wall thicknes or this looks unnatural.
Otherwise nice start! Keep working on this!

Gaieus actually I'm working on this When I finish this work I'll publish it here.

PS. Sorry about bad english

Excellent Work!!!

This is my latest work. After 2 or more weeks finally I found a normal way to create trees in sketchup and then render this in maxwell.

This is not final render. Here you can see almost 3000 real geometry trees. All teritory will contain almost 14 000 real geometry trees. All trees are exported to maxwell as instances so actually used is only 8 types of trees.

There is also 70 houses of 5 types and each type has 4 different facade types. Su model size almost 110 Mb.

CPU: e6750 overclocked @ 3.2 GHz with 2Gb ram.

Thanks! Protect was the thing

Ehmmmm. Ok components are replacing with complex model but they are not instances Is it possible to make them instances or it's not possible?

Thanks for explanation!

Hi!
Im using SU7 with maxwell render. The problem is that I can't figure out how to replace simple instances in maxwell studio with complex geometry.
One way is to include object in sketchup and make it proxy object but tree with lots of leaf is really heavy for SU when I must place in my model 50 trees.

plot-paris just with Your help I solved my problem
now I understand why su acting so with my topo
Thanks Gaieus for info!

Ok. But in this case I can call this a sketchup sandbox bug?

So, problem solved! I have divided those red straight lines in 11 segments and now mesh shows up correct! Well I think this is just stupid. If I have very large topography then this process will take very long time to divide all those straight lines Thanks google for improved su 7 !!!

I think that sandbox does not include some topography lines in mesh. Just don't knov reason.

Source SKP file.Clear Topo.skp

Hello!
I have one problem and I can't figure out what I have made wrong.

Here is clean topography.

Here is mesh created correctly.
But when I use this two lines for mesh then mesh is created wrong:

Please help me with this problem. What I'm doing wrong or this is some sandbox bug?

Hey, just found on maxwell forum:
Pelias say's:
"There is one very important change which is not directly visible though. The handling of transformation matrices was overwritten to solve the issues of Studio compatibility for groups/components. This is a big one - I believe this fixes the issues of objects misplaced in Studio or Studio crashes when loading SU generated MXS files for good."

Yeah!

Thanks for very fast replay! Maybe in new SU7 maxwell plugin this will be solved.

Hi!
I'm having one problem, probably I have missed or messed something. Ok there it is:

I have created two different components in su and then made a copy of them. Like in this picture:

Then I'm exporting this file to maxwell render with checked "instances". But in maxwell I get copies of components scaled like this:

So what's the problem? Can anyone help me with this?
