Check out the Wiki for information. As for the problem, I don't think it is the size, but sometimes it fails to start. If it persists then let us know.

RE: Particle FX preview
I cant wait! Are those bubbles in the water actual moving bubbles, or are they just random, and appear for a jiffy and depart without movement?

RE: Particle FX preview
That looks nice . Now we need sparks and such for metal grinding, and some other characteristics.

RE: My WIP's and Finished Works
I really like the Brabus. You're my favorite car modeler . Nice work!

RE: SketchyPhysics + SketchUp API = fun
Maybe if someone could just figure out how to set an object to spark(create a yellow trans. face) on the contact point when it's hit by something fast, like a bullet. Would be quite an addition to our little FPS models!

Center Of Gravity
Would it be feasible to figure out how to locate the center of gravity in a group of objects(separate, not grouped)?

RE: [Plugin] Sculpt Tools (help)
That sounds like a nice idea, Kwisten. I can't wait until I can scult some statues!

RE: Model Aircraft Plans
Does anyone know if there is a way to align the view so that the print-out component profile dimensions are equal to those in reality? For example; If you laid out a rectangle in SketchUp, and the dimensions were 1"x1", how would i determine the right view so that the square turns out 1"x1" on printing paper? Is there a CAD program capable of this?

RE: SP veterans: cutting stuff
Or you could just freeze the two pieces without any joints, and then the saw will just push them apart.

RE: Model Aircraft Plans
Thank you!
Right now I'm going to try to add reinforcements the fuselage and wings, and also try to fit in some alignment spars so I don't end up with 'a blob'. I've also derived some modeling tips from Model Aviation, a magazine popular among members of the aero-modeling community.
I will also be working on a flying wing design before I get to work on the original design, so I can test my modeling skills. I'll post some plans for that soon.
As for the original, the plans are itching to be printed, but I want to see if I can get enlarged versions of the plans scene in the model, because when they are not of the same scale as the model components, things will be VERY misaligned.

RE: Model Aircraft Plans
Thank you for the advice. I thought that the CG had to be at the epicenter of the peak point in the wing camber, though

RE: SP veterans: cutting stuff
Cutting? just intersect, make separate groups, use a fixed joint with a breaking force,and hide the lines in the log so you cant see any seams.
You don't have to place everything in one topic. You can also ask here:http://sketchyphysicscommunity.webs.com/ -
RE: Model Aircraft Plans
I will probably get to work on the model itself within 7 days(I know I said yesterday). The remote control portion might be troublesome, so don't expect it to be working soon.

RE: Groups flipping
I'm not sure if you approached this accurately. there are no uncommon characteristics of the two in terms of the simulation - it's probably because you flipped the group or components. If it's a problem with the gyro, delete the code in the controller field.

RE: Model Aircraft Plans
All I am getting is that you want something that explains the workflow, right?

Here is a VERY basic tutorial: tutorial.skp
