    • RE: Tigweld or Sketchup 2026?

      I find that ONE operation can be performed post weld, after that the line welded reverts. Talking about using extrude tools to create a face (A door skin for example). Possibly something to do with Sketchup like as not.

    • RE: Affinity Studio is Free

      A lot seems to have changed but I am guessing it only seems that way.

      All three apps in one? Not sure about that but the UI is different and will take a while to adapt from my own perspective.

      Had a quick mooch and it seems to be as good as ever imho.

      @tuna1957

      That is a common theme for most of us I believe. I go a bit cold when a model frustrates or I just lose motivation. Later I go on and try again.

    • RE: Photoreal setting in Sketchup 2026.

      Thanks Dave, I tried searching on the Sketchup support site but apparently I do not have a right to see the results.

    • RE: Affinity Studio is Free

      Another positive move in the digital world, might give a certain company food for thought.

      I hope to have my pc reinstalled with this at some stage.

    • Photoreal setting in Sketchup 2026.

      OK, enable them to see what was what. Tried to change back to the standard shaded textures and sky etc but not happeneing. When this happens the only way to correct the situation is to select the classic engine in graphics prefs and reboot. Then you can select the shaded textures without the photoreal background and the new graphics engine.

      He is right though, something beyond "That which is seen".

    • RE: Trying the photoreal setting with Rayscaper.

      Sorry, wanting to see how closely, or not, the photoreal mat setting in Sketchup can approximate to a render. Not too badly for folk who do not want the added complexity of a render program.

      Approximating a studio might prove useful.

      Curiosity alone.

    • Trying the photoreal setting with Rayscaper.

      As it say's, not tried the photoreal setting before so thought, "What might this do for Rayscaper?

      Up to you to see what difference you can. The model is a redo of an oldie.

      @pixelcruncher

      Not much, pretty sure they are repeats of the headlight glass/lens which comes out ok set as glass. Still some details to adjust and perhaps depict the fresnell effect on the lens but not much.
      I cannot select the spooks either as I cannot see them no matter what I adjust in the drop down VIEW menu.
