Edit: I just downloaded and installed an old eval version of SU7.1 Pro on the Mac and much to my surprise, the Vue Exporter works just fine. You need to make sure you are using a Vue Product with build number later than 51429. The latest Vue 8 products are at build number 52326 - so perhaps you need to download a Vue software update.

Thanks for checking Dave!

My build number is too low (48976), however when I check for software updates (File -> Check for updates) Vue tells me that my software is up to date. I purchased Vue and the SketchUp exporter together so they should be compatible. Any idea what I should do to solve this?

Hi Tim,

What version of Vue are you using? You must have Vue 8 or later (build # 51429 or higher) in order to read the exported .vob files. The problems experienced by others were those using the Sketchup 7 on the Mac which has a ruby problem. Sketchup 8 on the Mac and Sketcup 7 and 8 on the PC work just fine with the exporter.

On the upgrade options for Vue 8 Complete, you have the ability to upgrade to Vue 9 Complete when it becomes available. There is also a trade-in path where you can trade in you Vue 8 Conplete to Infinite for $495. In your case however, given that you are using Max 2011, I would recommend waiting for Vue 9 xStream (should be released in a couple of weeks). Vue xStream can work in standalone mode or as a Plugin inside of Max/Maya/XSI/Lightwave/C4D and it's fully integrated in with the render engines of those systems.

Hi Dave,

I have just purchased Vue 8 Studio + the SketchUp exporter. I'm using SketchUp 7 Pro on my Mac and Vue is not able to read the .vob files that I export from SketchUp. Can the "ruby problem" with SketchUp 7 on Mac be solved?
