I tried going to sketchup 2015 one and half years ago (just before the release of windows 10). Just bought my new pc, but when i installed the vray demo to test if it was worth buying (in the sence: does everything work) I found a weird unexplained bug. My sketchup started to run incredibly slow after installing it (needed to wait seconds for the camera to rotate a few degrees and such). I actually asked the chaos group for help (it was after the install of vray that it happened so i hoped they knew a way to fix it). After they looked at it they were as baffled as me. So that's why I still use the 2013 with vray, as I'm sure it works.

Is there no other way to make the 2013 do as I want? Or do I need to try again with a higher version of sk?

Let's start with wishing you all the best for 2017!

I have a problem: I have created an interior scene in sketchup to be rendered in vray.
While creating the scene i made, every few steps, a test render ranging from 600pixels to 1200.
Nothing to complain about, everything was as good as I can get it (still learning).
Then added lights and rendered it at 2k pixels and still no problem, but now I wanted to finish it so I can send it to a friend (for whom i'm doing this) and sketchup keeps crashing, ranging from just the bugsplat to an error message saying it can't write an error because temp. folder is full.

I read up on the internet: this is not an uncommon problem, but the solutions offered do nothing. (like this)
Also tried with proxy'ing almost everything in the scene, but to no avail.

If anyone is willing to help, i would appreciate it!

my setup:
skp 2013 (I had weird troubles with 2014+ and vray, hardware complications i guess)
i7 intel 6600
32Gb Ram
Windows 10.
scene: 189mb (a bit big, but not uncommon with 3dwarehouse models)
raw picture of the scene

Solved the problem:

After a while I nearly gave up on fixing the problem. But now I have found the solution. It was not a driver isue as I first thought. After deleting all the drivers and plugging in a generic computer mouse, sketchup would still not zoom when scrolling. So my next step was to question windows 8.1 and I quickly came to the answer: When you install a program that makes it possible to scroll on inactive windows (in my case: katmouse) it can cause this kind of problem.

Just thought it was worth sharing.

Hey, I got the idea it must be a win 8.1 + driver problem. Have tested an other logitech mouse on my own computer and got the same problem, so it's not just the g600 that does it. Now I just gotten to work where we use a mac and installed a trial version of sk2015 and here the logitech mouse works just fine. So I'm going to remove the logitech drivers and hope for the best.

Hey,

I have used sketchup for a while now, never had any problems until I tried the 2014 version with my new mouse. It's a logitech G600 and in the newer versions of sketchup it won't zoom in or out when using the mouse wheel. I can orbit with it, but zooming is not an option. I have gone back to sketchup 2008 and there the mouse works fine. I have looked around a bit and found that many logitech mouses have isues with zooming. So I deleted the logitech software to see if it was a driver problem, but it did not help.
Any ideas in how to solve this problem?
