    • RE: A new home for SketchUp

      Hello everyone! My name is Errin from Limitless Computing and we make the mobile app SightSpace 3D.

      I am actually excited about all of the possibilities of a match between SketchUp and Trimble and here's why. I have a background in satellite imagery/GPS/GIS and am familiar with Trimble. They are very strong with geospatial and could take SketchUp in many ways we have not even thought of. The ones that immediately jump out to me are how SketchUp could be used to augment Trimble’s geospatial (3D satellite imagery) and laser scanning (3D modeling). This could give the SketchUp team new opportunities.

      I am baffled, though, why Google did not see the great possibilities of a SketchUp-3D Warehouse combination for their new Google Glasses Augmented Reality project. Streaming real-time 3D information about buildings and products sounds like a win to me.

      I think this will ultimately be good for users (and hopefully 3rd party developers).

    • RE: Mental Ray noisy shadows

      Having worked with mental ray, you can try the following:

      Final gather to: Draft
      Image Precision to: High
      Glossy reflection: 2x
      Glossy refraction: 2x

      Optionally:
      Turn on Global Illumination and set Max Photons per sample to 50,000
      Turn off: Reuse Geometry
      Disable Caustics (in rendering settings, indirect illumination)

      Hope this helps.
