A gathering of household inhabitants.

Centre stage is the senior partner.......

The truth is, giving up artistic and creative instincts is a negative sum. We will be worse off for it. I have not tried the service I referenced but it is suggested that it respects geometry and texture of the model being rendered, no evidence of that so I cannot say.

I am reminded of the HG Wells book, The time machine. A future world where subterranean monsters hunt and devour surface dwelling simpletons. Fugly evil subterranean types and beautiful but stupid surface dwellers more like sheep after a lobotomy.

If ai can be limited to assisting with lighting suggestions and denoising maybe. As a learning tool, that too but otherwise, no thanks Whoda thunk it, a Trekkie Troglodite........

OK, not sleeping sometimes has a positive side to it, thought a bit on an old model 'rod and added a few new elements.

I am noticing that Rayscaper does not always update elements, groups/components as It should but a restart of Rayscaper sorts that right off the bat so NOT a problem.

I have mentioned Maxwell render before, used it to probably not its best but IMHO, Rayscaper beats Maxwell render hands down, NOW, let alone the future.

My big fascination which I am sure you will get, is cars. Ever since I could hold a pencil. Steve, I owe you for inspiring me to never give up with your talent and humility. Thank you, Sir.

Likewise, and to all living there right now.

Not to mention the other folk living there and hotspots, too many tin pot dick taters and I include a certain mop threatening to invade Greenland in that.

What on the planet are they drinking/smoking/sniffing/sucking on?

Don't mind if I do.

So I try.

Supercallafragilistic.........

I know, sometimes when things go pear shaped, I get the urge to laugh my head off.

Last night the screen went off the charts crazy, dialogue boxes opening and closing all over the screen and I thought everything AND the kitchen sink had gone nuts.

Switched it off and went to Bedfordshire.

This AM, tried again and same thing. Thought about it and narrowed it down to an input problem, then plugged a spare keyboard (OK, old keyboard) and nada. so I vacuum cleaned the current keyboad and everything is back to normal.

Cat fur.

Miaoooooooooow.

I can only concur with that sentiment.

No, not a James Bond or James Bondage even, film.

This image showcases the smoothing process and is a partial clay image in passing.

Another Affinity with LUT post pro.

In the mould of Colin Chapman, Bruce McLaren, Sir Frank Williams etc but the last of his kind we shall see in F1.

Always outspoken and never short of an opinion I think he polarised with F1 fans but tbh, always managed to be a fine Irishman, pundit and genuine human being.

RIP to that great paddock where the oil is always Castrol R and the smell/sounds of real F1 rather than souped up hair dryers.

Give 'em some 'stick' Eddie.

Stay strong, brother. Talk often as you can, PM's available.

Sorry, missed this response, stuff happening and loudly.
I will not be sending any scene's for a while as onepillockdrive is taking me up the wall. On my tenth circuit of wall, ceiling, wall, floor.......
microsnot wanting me to reinstall the pillock drive to "Experience the full benefit of a properly functioning pc experience, it is only between £20 and £50 per month to home all my files on their 'super safe' servers".

The new build is good, when hiding the 'assets' panel the progress bar is also lost. Not a major issue as when it comes to labelling the render, unhiding the assets is doable.
It would be useful when progress is slow as a stalled render is not so obvious when the progress bar is hidden.

No hassle, stuff happens remain chill mate.

Magic, thanks again mate. Smiley day.

No idea, the licensing of some apps is related to lag and response time from the forum but that IS related to internet rather than Sketchucation issues.

The bundle this is dealt with by installing the apps separately, possible account issues?

The issue with material libraries not being present has gone now and I can cross pollinate libraries so I can have the basics from 2024 in 2026. Jobbed.

OK, clean install, now the sketchucation store bundles will not install, great week to give up snorting stout.

No, I tried that early doors.

I am talkikng the standard mats in the relevant sketchup mats folders.

I was not but onedrive is an arse. Reinstallation does not fix the issue. Possible uninstall, clean install. Best I can come up with.
