Hi Solo and everyone I think I will join youonthis Blender trip...
I myself many times tried to jump from SU to Blender or SU to Modo, but always switched back to SU. Why? Mostly because I work on architectures and I feel so well an easy for that in Sketchup. Anyway if I want to go further on architectural renderings: HighPoly,UVs, integrated renderer etc... Blender feels a good choice

I recently booked to Andrew Price Architectural academy and I feel it very nice and exciting, if only I get more time to spend on it of course

I now always get bugsplat when using the obj importer...
I am on Win7Pro64 SU7
Anyone with the same problem?

ok I got it.
Need to publish new version.
Really strange that ruby code (without SU calls) not interpreted the same way.
Will fix this today.

Thanx to help Pascal
I will wait for it

Thanx to help TIG

I have saved all leaves components in version 7 and now I get it to start...
Anyway it creates the trunk but no leaves and I get this error message from ruby console:

Error: #<NoMethodError: undefined method hue2rgb' for #<SketchupExtension::M3darcstudiotree::Cf3das_Colorset:0xf8a1cf0>> (eval):1774:in hsltorgb'

Yes Kris nothing happens at all...just frustration

Hi Kris,
Sorry for that but I only tested it on SU8 as dev started after SU8 was available. Do not know what functions are not correctly supported by previous versions.
Do you get at least the menu in plugins ?
I you activate the Ruby console, do you get some messages in the console ?
Yours
Pascal

Yes the menu is there...When I choice "Make tree" it returns:

Error: #<RuntimeError: Can't insert empty component.>
(eval):1050:in load' (eval):1050:in initialize'
(eval):1042:in each' (eval):1042:in initialize'

(eval):651:in each' (eval):651:in f3das_loadconfiguration'
(eval):4443:in require' (eval):4443:in call'

Hope you can help

Yes Kris nothing happens at all...just frustration

The guys at Glare are running quite an inviting sale this month.

I'm stoked about the rendering Section Planes from SketchUp

Not to mention the Blender integration

Yes very interesting option...hope other softwares will soon get this.
Anyway I find indigo is still a little expensive IMO

I can also now announce that after some licensing changes we're now able to offer Bloom Unit for free with one hour of cloud time

great news Damble!!!
So we can go for a sort of demo mode first hour.

Nice to see you so reactive about our demands. I sure things are gonna boost for you with that new approach.
Now I cant wait to take a look at Bloom unit

i get to their website but dont see any way to contact or interact with them via support email or user forums. I think we get some question advice or else to share and would be useful in both ways...
