Attached is a zip file that is an update to the woodwrk.rb. It now includes ktkoh mortise tenon ruby. In the directory woodwrk2, is a readme.txt. One must copy the runwoodwrk.rb into the plugins directory. This file can be edited to delete out any ruby's that you don't want etc.

Which program did you have in mind?
looked trough maybe 200 pages with chairs etc in the 3d warehouse..

Blender - free

And another story is to try manufacture that kind of shapes from SketchUP! I also started using Rhino.

There is a .png export with alpha mask and can be used in SketchUP.

Adam, is this V-ray for Max or V-ray for SU? I'm asking because I'm trying to find out how to add displacement map to a texture in v-rayfSU

I tried that page but my French is not good enough to see where the download link was for that ruby - can you post here s'il vous plait!

Try Google translate

Perfect and very needed! Thanks! There is also a dovetail plugin!

I tried the last version of the IrendernXT, but had a lot of problems - slow response of the interface, sometimes when adjusting textures all goes white, when tried to load a plant from the library SketchUP crashes and etc.

Thanks for this script, but it is not so practical - groups with strange names, BOM is messy and etc. Since introduction of the FredoScale plugin the kitchen design is very easy - just make all the models and modules and then drag and drop or stretch where needed and export with CutList! This way you can put the banding info and all the hardware. And you have all the models ready for the clients to choose from!

I see. So Vue doesn't read the Su data directly...

What does Hypershot do?

There is a menu entry "Export to HyperShot" to open the scene inside HyperShot. In the HypeShot's installation folder there are executables XXXtoObj.exe for every supported file format - so, it converts everything to obj before rendering.

Only Hypershot - the image from the Twilight is distorted. Hypershot converts everything to obj before rendering.
