Neat....or the reverse of how i did it ...cleaver without the sweat,,,

If you have SU7.1 Free install the DWG importer: http://sketchup.google.com/download/plugins.html#dwg (make sure you keep a copy of it.)

With all those WIPs you are planning on something really obscure? Congrats! You are as busy as a bee, dolphus!

Only a pleasure, and I agree about help from who knows where I have also had tremendous and generous help in SketshUp

Glad that worked. Your next task should be easy. A nuclear fusion powered motorcycle.

Thanks Luis ( i will collect the shocks in due course, and if yoe have a gearbox.....)and ely862me Richard i did not say which year the formula and rules change faster than lady's fashion some time a v10 will be back in style

I'm not sure what the problem is, but doubt that it's just a simple SU bug. I was playing around yesterday with seeing what a basketball court looked like using stained wood rather than just colours for the markings...so I imported a number of versions of a very large scale wooden floor texture. each one was 2048 x 1024 pixels; and I had no problem at all...well other than SU resampling the texture to a lower resolution.

Aha! Thank you Chris. I appreciate it.

Thank you guys for the heads up

Hi Dolphus, Awesome work, are any of your graphics available for commercial use ? not all software engineers possess your talents, well at least this one doesn't Regards

No problem at all with several searches for me. Just guessing, but try closing down all your browser windows and then trying again. If that fails, try restarting your computer. Do you have a different browser installed? If so, try that.

....dolphus,look great!

Sounds like a good Idea to me

Further progress with the design of the wings and traffic surveillance pods in place [image: hp13.jpg] [image: hp14.jpg]

Oooh! I really like the first one of the second lot.(I'm in my Crow mood, Anything shiny is brilliant ) How did you do those rings?
