There's already a tool to change units 'on the fly' by a simple toolbar button press.
Toggle Units v2.11 by Matt666

You click the appropriate button to change the SKP's units, you can also change 'accuracy' +/- etc
Thereafter the model's displayed units are as you last set them.
There's also an option to choose which of all of the possible unit toggles go onto the toolbar...

I will definitely check that out. Thanks a lot! 😄

That's a great photo! 😆

Just kidding. Excellent job. 👍

Thanks a lot for the comments. 😄
I haven't tried out Vray, but I can tell you that Thea is fast. 😄

Oooh ... Forgot him. 😮 No matter what, "Isn't She Lovely" and "Master Blaster" always put an enormous smile on my face. (Let's not mention "I Just Called", shall we?)

I mentioned Brian Wilson already, but nevertheless:

In my opinion, that one's the best pop song ever written. (Though 'Waterloo Sunset' is a close second.)

As Jon requested I have posted this in the gallery forum:

exellent render and super model!

8 gig. Says on the back. 😄

A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR... LETS MAKE IT AN AMAZING 2009:P

Jon,

For some reason I missed this thread.
And I agree with you 100%. This is a must for Sketchup!

Thanks, Remus. 😄
Here's one more...

Nope, not working for me either. Don't fret, I'm not that curious to see what happened, obviously I was not meant to see this...

If you export to OBJ (SU has a setting to triangulate all faces) it will do that, you can then just import the file into SU again.

Thanks. 😄

only 9850 faces!

😆 Yeah, the poly count is a bit disgusting, but it looks good when rendered, anyway... 😆

That guy is REALLY playing with the hand that he was dealt 👍
Just goes to show us all that we should never moan about
things.

VERY GOOD

I don't know if it is my imagination - but I believe to see a soft shadow of the speakers... 😄

Pilou, if you mean the finished textures, the ones I posted are just a scaled down example. 😉
The original size of the finished textures were 1200x1200. 😄

Oh, and I should add, that everyone that I know that works there, or has worked there are the nicest and most humble people I know. Hands down. It makes me proud to know them.

In contrast to that, I know plenty of people at other similar places (CG shops) and I can't say they same for them (on average).

Perfect, good idea, 10 points!
