Right like that JQL, I am quite impressed by this plugin and like to Blender is Eevee this would be a great plugin for SU if it would be implemented as an overlay to SU.

Hi, I have one question.
What is stopping you in developing this plugin as synced rendering plugin for Sketchup (or maybe as an overlay to SU window)? Is this far-fetched for me to think like this?

Great model.
For floorplan, you could use cross section so we can see doors and windows.

Hi, since this can be prepared for posting on FB, can you make export for *.glb?

Currently my Vray install crash SU so I can not try this but could you try and move some od mat settings slider(s) back and forth. With old vismats this can be solved like this, sometimes.
Also, check if all maps are in their slots?

Anton, you deliver it as promised! It looks great.
I was wondering will v2 comes with something like force modifier in Blender,
for pillows and similar?

Judging by the description this should work with Sketchup also, so this would be the easiest option for SU to Unreal workflow, at least to ones who use Vray for rendering in SU?

Hi guys,
I do not have time this morning to try new V-RAY 4.00.01 FOR UNREAL, did any of you Vray users try it already?
https://www.chaosgroup.com/vray/unreal

Cool, hope it will be soon!

It looks great!
Do I think it should be less flat on top?
What is your plan for texture?

Marvelous!

Yes, there is no automatic way for it in SU. Maybe Thom needs more good suggestions for new tools in QFace/SubD workflow. I find Blender easier for this type of modeling but I will not quit on QFace/SubD workflow yet.
I think there is room and will on Thom side to add more tools to ease things out when modeling with QFace/SubD way, we just need to present them to him.

L i am: I'm not sure about the masterful part, but I'm pretty satisfied with the model.
Nlipovac: When I saw the listing for the original, I imagined that it was meant for a gentleman who lived in rented rooms, like Sherlock Holmes on Baker Street, and needed both a secretary and a dresser. The piece also appears to be more utilitarian than fancy-schmancy. It's made of oak, rather than mahogany, and except for the molding details on the upper case, it's pretty plain. And after nearly 200 years of use, it looks pretty banged up.

Sometimes!?, eye meets with something that makes it cheerful and heart responds to it, most of the time for me it is a design of a chair that make that impression on me, but this time it was this piece.
I do like what you design and post here but this one is just a bit over them.

I love it. That piece is so useless to me and yet I really want one, just to watch it.

Did you try using a map in bump slot for displacement? Copy it from a bump and paste to displacement.

Thank you!

Thank you for this overview. I will have some spare time for the weekend so will try this free version.

Hi Pilou,
have you tried it out?
It looks impressive, but no prices for other versions.

Great idea Chipp!
After watching this comparison I have no doubt blender was built by aliens for aliens. I'm not sure it's suitable for Archviz. Are there any plans (in Blender community) to make some kind of fork that will look like conventional 3D software?

Here under UI / Template, they are talking about Blender 101, so we will see if that would take some edge of that steep learning curve. These days I am trying to use Blender for UVs.
