Hey Guys,

I tried it: I took a line and recurve it or weld it and then with right click converted it into "Polyline segmentor" from the Bz toolbar of Fredo's plugin, and then changed the number of segment to 200 for example, but it didn't made it smoother, just divide it.

I did manage to make it smoother with the Subdivide and smooth plugin, but that action helped only one contour of the face and it is not a solution...

so- isn't there any way to import a spline from AutoCAD and not to regret it?

Hi mitcorb,
Thanks for the answer but I am looking for a solution to imported splines: and not to trace them one by one with another spline..

Hey Guys,

Do any of you have a solution for splines imported from AutoCAD?

The problems are:

1. Splines are exploded in the import process and can not be edited as arcs in SketchUP.
2. Splines are imported as individual segments and the result is a shape divided into 12 segments and it looks awful.

I know there is a plugin for arc segments but I am looking one for splines.... Any Ideas?

Thanks,
Inbal

HI,
I am really trying to get to the bottom of things is vray and I have a few questions:

1. in the CameraPhysical tab, you can turn it off but you can also turn of the Exposure- what is the difference.
   in one of Asgvis tutorials it was said that when the exposure is down, all the other parameters of the F number and shutter and so on do not effect anything in the scene- so what is the differences between them?

2. In the vray book it is said that the shutter speed effects the motion blur of camera and objects...
   since when do we have moving objects in sketchup?
   and how do I achieve a motion blur with the camera?

thanks for answering

and additionally maybe these tutorials http://renderstuff.com/free-rendering-cg-tutorials/ and specifically this one http://renderstuff.com/best-vray-settings-dmc-sampler-cg-tutorial/ could clear up some other stuff. (yes, it'sprimarily for 3dsmax, but it's for vray, and that has the same settings universally, so it can teach you/us something.)

thanks! sure is a lot of reading but hopfully I will get to it soon.

thank so much

Hello everyone,

I am trying to have a really good idea on what image sampler to choose:

I did some research and found that the
Addaptive DMC - is the best for interior renders where there are lots of textures and reflection, but it is slow.

the Adaptive Subdivisions is good for fast renders because it takes less time or for good renders when there are not many textures and reflections.

But I havn't found an answer to -

1. the fixed rate- when is it good for? when will I use it?
2. when min and max rate to set for every sampler?

I would really appreciate if someone could make it really clear for me.

thanks

Thank you soooo much!
I keep having my plugins and toolbars scrambelled and I spent so much time on arrenging them.
Thank you for saving me time

thank so much
