Lucky Hungary...
Wood shingles is my favorit choice for it's very good integration in the tropical landscape and the thermal insulation.
We usualy saw them but they are still lasting a long time , all depending on the underneath ventilation.
We also use vegetal leaves from satrana palm tree and ravinala, the "traveler tree".
Next shots,
Have a good day,

Hi Gaieus,
You sure learnt well in school boy, that was in 1772,just imagine what it could have been at that time!
So you win a new picture: teack shingled wood
I use as roofing here.
Have a nice day,
Patrice

Wooh Gaieus how can you know things like that, pretty interesting, never heard of that before ,will try to get some more infos. But have you heard of this bunch of french former carribean pirates who retired north of Madagscar near Diego-Suarez, and founded the first french republic, far before 1789, already with equal vote rights for men and women amongst other rules this type. Very romantic isn'it they ended probably eated by the locals......

A few shot if I can connect...
Hope you will appreciate,

Hi Tomasz,

Thanks for the trick, was able to save and open model in KT!
Now all I have to do is learn how to get some good render!!!!

Thanks again,
Regards,
Patrice

Hi Daniel,

I changed the path to this one:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Bureau\SKETCHUP
unfortunately it doesn'seem to help, still no .xml and no export....
Probably some other reason!
I'm going to wait for KT for Mac, looks like it's on the way!

Anyhow thanks for your help,
Regards,

Patrice

Now here is what I just found:
C:\Documents and Settings\Propriétaire\Bureau\SKETCHUP
Do you think the "é" could be the reason why I have problems?
I am not very confident with Windows and I don't know if there is a way to change that word.
Too bad KT not made for Mac.....would be much more simple as I find Windows a pain in the neck!

Patrice

Thanks for your answer Gaieus, I checked out through layers, components and files path, but no non-english character showing...I also had a look at the tutorials and getting start video, can' find any solution. Well, I will stay with Artlantis Studio for my renders until someone hand me some clue to the problem!

Thanks again,

Regards,

Patrice
