works great now to see if I can create a ruby with an icon so the script can be run by clicking an icon. I also may want to add an identifier tag to the components IE: VR-Scene name or even VR-cam-## and then the numbers would be progressively created based on the scene order.

We are trying to create an import script for Unity that would create jump or teleport positions based on SketchUp scene cameras. So when a model is exported in FBX format and then Imported into Unity the unity script would automatically place a teleport location at each "proxy" for a camera. This way if you have a SketchUp file with scenes for kitchen, dining, bedroom, hall, basement, etc. when exported and then imported into Unity we can use the Xbox controller on the Rift to teleport you to those preset camera locations in the model.

I'll see if I can take it from here but I may come back and ask for your help.

thanks again for getting me this so quickly.

That is awesome. I want!

Thanks for that.

Very limited Section Plane in the API. You can get/set the active cutting plane.

That only thing you can do is find them and get/set their plane orientation. So your selection cycle would work, but that's about it.

Thanks Marcus I see that your location is Minnesota is that correct? Where in MN do you live?

Wow.

Thanks Gaieus Yes it's from my email already being harvested by bots. OLM my web host does have a paid subscription to a better spam killer but I wanted to see if I could find a free solution.

Or better yet and Empty lot with a building for sale sign draped on the building. Maybe a broken down van with trash collecting on the parking lot and weeds growing in cracks...hehe you get the picture now I have an idea maybe next time I get a rendering job I do just that and submit it to the client and see what reaction I get...I can say Oh I thought you would like to see what the building will look like in 20 years when people no longer use cars for transportation because there is no more oil left.... However I'd have the real one done first so I could send that to them as soon as they stop laughing.

😄

It seems that this technology like many others is driven by potential profit. Here is a youtube video of similar technology from cisco.

Now the interesting thing to me is can this be done electronically via an application like Sketchup using 3 Dimensional models. IE what if you could simulate the 35 HD cameras in a 3d application and have those simulated cameras sending video feeds just like the real camera except they are focused on the 3d object in the computer. Now could we display a 3 dimensional "holographic" model to remote locations....Somehow my mind always tries to bring Sketchup into the picture.

Watch this guys. 'The Century of the Self' produced by Adam Curtis for the BBC.
In this documentary (one of the best ever created) Adam Curtis procedes to layout the narrative and creation of the 'Consumer Society' from Freud to PR (and its relationship to Propaganda) to today's party political systems' complicity involvement in media game. It is a astounding piece of work.

Too funny, I sent that one to my boyz. They'll love it!

Joe is appearing on Fox tonight. I would guess Joe would not campaign with McCain (hey, that rhymes!). So the main stream liberal media has been camped outside Joe's door just waiting to pounce and trip him up. Whey the hell didn't they camp outside Ayers' door in their unbiased quest for news.

This is my actual selection and the resultant output file ready for playback in SU.

That's nice Phil. The orignal house looks like one of those 1920s 4-squares common in south Mpls and in St. Paul.

If you can export form blender, couldnt you export from SU to blender then blender to DTS?

Thanks Phil! 👍
