OK, thanks juju.

Hi all,

Haven't been on here in a while. Always a great resource tho. I am re-installing 2 installations of SU2018 and would like to know the best or easiest way to match the plugins and tool layout for both installs. Could I just copy one plugins folder from the first installation and paste to the same folder in to the second stall? Or, is there a better way?

Thank you,
Jeff Osborne

Hi Everyone,

I just upgraded my SU Pro 8 to 2017 finally. I had SU Pro 8 with V-Ray. Now I want to either upgrade or purchase a new/different Rendering package. Looking for input and feedback on what people here are using and pro & cons of them. I'd like the one I choose to have texture mapping for more realistic renders if possible so this may narrow the choices. Any help on this would be appreciated. Thanks very much.

Cheers,
Jeff

Hi All,

Been away from here for too long. I'll be upgrading my Sketchup to the newest version and would like some input on whats available for good rendering software. I currently have Sketchup Pro 8 and V-Ray. V-Ray is not supporting 2017 yet. Input welcome and appreciated.

Thank you,
Jeff

I was more advanced years ago, but photomatch is a feature I've never needed to use. Found the trick tho. Have to uncheck the foreground photo. Thanks again Dave. Much appreciated.

So.....the opacity sliders...where would those be?

Yes, still on SU8 lol.....don't tell anyone.

Hi All,

Haven't been on here in ages. Gotta change that! I have a project I'm doing for a friend where I need to use Photomatch. I have a partially drawn model and would like to Photomatch it. When I bring in the photo, the model colours do not show properly. I've played with the view settings and found that clicking x-ray will bring the colours back, but they are transparent. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Jeff

Thank you for everyone's reply and input. Much appreciated.

Hi there,

Wondering...once I upgrade to the latest SU version, can I just copy my existing plugin files into the proper folder without any issues or will I have to re-download a certain way? Wanting to avoid any issues before it's too late. Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Jeff
