thank you thomas always the best!!!!

@unknownuser said: I realise that Thom's Transparency plugin is v8 only, but are there any 'stand-out' issues addressed that offer genuine excitement. Observer fixes. Being able to more reliably monitor the model. And additions/fixes to being able to draw things in the viewport - better UIs. @unknownuser said: Or is it a case of the issues addressed reduce your workload? Yes. Less hacks and workarounds. The thing is - there's lots of small improvements that adds up to a generally better environment to develop in. Most plugins will continue to be backwards compatible, but there will be a few that benefits from having a newer SU. It works with the old, but maybe not as good. Users of SU8M0 should absolutely upgrade to M1 as it fixes that cursed ray tracer bug which made many plugins act unreliable. A bit hard to sell a single API feature to the end user - as the benefit for the end user is what the plugins do with that feature.

This is not needed any more as SU has already made large address aware which means it can use up to 4Gb of memory on a 64 bit system - but for many people, this is still not enough so for this particular issue (rendering large scenes with many, high resolution materials etc. inside SketchUp) a true 64 bit version seems to be the solution.

Always the latest - currently .98. But we should not be discussing the beta here - all beta talk should be kept to the ASGVis forum. (During the holidays there will be less activity than normal.)

How did you do that ely. Imported jpeg, traced over the lines. grouped it??, then sub divide in sks is that this http://www.smustard.com/script/SubdivideAndSmooth Looks good.

.95 is not the latest. .96 is the latest beta build, .89 is the latest public build. ASGVis want beta testers (and you agreed to this when you signed up) to only post regarding beta builds in the ASGVis beta forum. This is so they can investigate the issues and correct them. For general info about VfSU and displacement check out the sticky thread at this forum section. http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=322&t=28593 I'm closing this thread. PM me if you have any further questions.
