@majid Hope everything is good, and stays that way, with you and your family.

Kind of says it all!

OK, I just tried both of the items I mentioned before and they both seem to be working again.

@majid

Wish I had the talent to do things like this.

Some more learning

Here is my latest render. Some progress I think but one thing I am still struggling a little with is setting the scene in SketchUp so that it will produce the view I want in the render.

Merry Christmas, mates, let's pray for a more peaceful world!![m c.jpg]

Nice images and yes, Merry Christmas and hopefully, a more peaceful world.

Making some progress.

Wow, what a great start!

Just curious, what tools/plugins (if any) did you use to draw this?

I was thinking about trying this myself. I was thinking about putting the image as a background and then drawing on top of it.

@TIG said in Silly/Dumb Question about Guidelines:

You can't do that in one step.

I tried to find where I had read that but could not find it again

Do this.
Use the Tape-measure tool to make the first at 1/2" as before click to confirm, Select the guide line, and chose the Move tool, press Ctrl to invoke Copying, make the copy off 1/2" and immediately type 9x press Enter to confirm.
Now you have 10 guides at 1/2" spacing.

As several of you have mentioned, using the Move tool is the correct way to achieve what I was trying to do.

I want all of you who responded to know I really appreciate your feedback. I now have things working and hope to post something in the next couple of days using this process.

I have not been doing much with SketchUp lately (not wanting to go into a bunch details (health related) but things are getting back and participating again.

Again, thanks to all of the feedback.

@rown2000
Since Twilight Render is going away it would also be neat if you could add Rayscaper to the list.

@Emilia44 I think the simplest answer is to post a question on how to do something. You will get good answers/instructions on this forum.

@majid Looks great Majid.

O
I, I figured it out………

@rich-o-brien @fredo6
OK guys, I am making some progress. I have a version being developed with Animator. I have to get ff-mpeg installed so I can generate some to share with you. Just want you to know that I am making some progress. Lots of trial and error so far and I can tell you I am going to have a bunch of questions later but I am headed in the direction I want to go.

@tuna1957 Very well done sir.

I need to go watch more of Box’s video and learn how to do something like this.

@majid said in RayScaper:

@ntxdave I made the texture and applied it to the walls, some part is not textured properly and I will fix it.
How do you do that? I would like to learn this.

@Rich-O-Brien Thanks Rich……making good progress.

OK, I just found a video about the camera position in Animator and I am working on it. If I figure this on out correctly I will be very close to where I want to be.

I have way too many to list here. After watching more of Box’s videos, I think I have all of the ones he uses. However, I am not positive. I look forward to your suggestions/recommendations.

@Mike-Amos Looking forward to where this goes.
