    • Web Viewer with pop up info capabilities???

      Are there any sketchup web viewers that would allow me to post a model to the web and the user be able to click on an object and information on that item pop up?

      I have a few models that we are creating interactive maps from. Right now we are using 2d images of 3d views. We are pleased with the results but we are going to end up making a minimum of 4 separate maps so that the user can rotate around the model to see the map from all sides. A 3D option would be a great help.

      Thanks in advance.

    • RE: Topo generation question

      Thanks for the reply.
      I was able to get better results using a program that limited the distance of the triangulation lines and then bringing that into sketchup.
      Ultimately though we ended up sending the file back to the surveyor to obtain additional break lines to use. We were able to get a usable topo.
      Thanks again

    • Topo generation question

      Is there a method or plugin that will limit the distance a triangulation line travels in the z direction?

      I have a very difficult terrain which has a series of very steep road edges. The sandbox tool and toposhaper plugin are not yielding usable results. Toposhaper grid can't be made small enough to accurately display the steep slope. Sandbox tool is jumping multiple countour elevations to triangulate.

      Alternatively, perhaps there is a plugin that will divide all of the topo line segments to a maximum distance that could be set at 6 inches or so. This would eliminate much of the contour lines being jumped over.

      Thanks

    • RE: [REQ] Rope/wire plugin

      Would it be possible to use a slightly modified version of the ivy plugin for wrapping rope around an object? You can get a single strand by playing with the parameters.
      I attached a screen shot of a very quick try.

    • RE: [REQ] Rope/wire plugin

      I was asked to help on a ropes course project a while back. I was trying for a 3 strand rope. I never did come up with a good method and they ultimately just used sketchup line work for their illustrations.
      I felt like I was getting close to a good workflow a few times.

      I think Helix around curve could be modified create multiple helix and then a line to tube ruby could be used. The problem I had was easily creating multiple helix for multiple strands that worked correctly with the diameter of the rope. The helix has to be adjusted based on the diameter of the rope

      I think I attached my test file? I tried anyway.
      Hope that helps someone.

    • RE: SU to Unreal Engine any progress?

      Here is a tutorial I have been looking at. Haven't watched it all yet or gotten around to trying any of it yet. Hope it is helpful.

      here is the link to a plugin I stumbled upon a few weeks back.
      I haven't tried it but the youtube video looked promising

    • RE: Add location and get phot texture not working

      No problem,
      I don't post much, I probably need to alter how I view the board to see the most recent instead of just looking through the different sections.
      In the process of placing photo textures on a small city block. Have to find an alternate method.

    • RE: Add location and get phot texture not working

      I did look through the last few days post, thanks for asking.
      I am guessing that it is posted somewhere else that I missed.
      I'll look again.
