    • SU WAREHOUSE, better work flow?

      Hi Guys

      Every time I download something from SU warehouse , it closes down. Before the update i would drag component into my su model and in this way I would still be able to continue on the same stage of warehouse browsing. Now this is impossible. I got my collection on SU warehouse of about 300 models, and need to download about 20 of them, every time I need to browse through my collection ( and loading takes time) over and over again, and after downloading something to my model, browser closes down, which makes really time consuming to download more then few models...

      so there is my question

      IS THERE ANY WAY TO MAKE SU WAREHOUSE BROWSER NOT CLOSING DOWN AUTOMATICALLY AFTER DOWNLOADING 1 COMPONENT? i USE SU2013

    • 'Sketchup out memory' bug? after using cleanup tool ?!

      Hi guys,

      I am user of sketchup 2013. I was using cleanup tool (plugin) to clean my model (130mb) I did used cleanup plugin for this model few times earlier, to fasten up my work flow ( and this plugin really helped me). But I am now having a problem ( is not major as i got copy before cleanup but still something that may by worrying as I don't really know what is happening).

      So THE PROBLEM IS, after using cleanup tool for model 130mb (as i said used it few times earlier, worked fine), it took about 4 hours, I got message that Sketchup is 'out of memory' and then ' BUG SPLAT RC resource DLL not found' . And can't even close sketchup, did anyone have similar problem? Before cleanup model worked fine. Also after finishing cleaning, plugin as usual showed how many edges were reduced and then gived me a communicate that there was a problem that couldn't be repaired , but i clicked ok and then i got this problem with out of memory.

      Sorry, probably my grammar and spelling is terrible, I am so tired , barely see.

      shell i just leave it and continue with old copy of my model or this is something that can crash sketchup as a whole? my computer ? and so my life? Please help or advice? Thanks

    • Push tool trick?

      Hi guys ,
      I have a lot of the same elements to push, would love to do it by selecting all elements i need to push and then simply push it but PUSHtOOL wouldn't let me do this. I could only select one face at one time. Is there any way you can do it 'all at once ? πŸ˜„

    • RE: Problem with follow me, probably easy to deal with I can't

      jUst to clarify, i usded Eneroth Upright Extruder, tried the profile builder but didn't know how can i use it for my balustrade, but its great for profiles (which i would need anyway , so thanks! I always did everything by 'hand') and didn't fry FMAK, as it didn't want to install : ' Error during installation. Could not write destination' ( i even opened it in notepad and put on very first line : require 'sketchup.rb' but it dodn't work..). So just you know what i have used xx

    • RE: Problem with follow me, probably easy to deal with I can't

      Hi again, thanks for replies. I did what you said to do (iNStalled plugins apart from follow me and keep plugin, which didn't wanted to install -some error?..hmm) and it works , which is great!!! but I am having now different problem, I want to 'hide' steps with this balustrade, and the first balustrade(railing) is almost perfect , the other is not so great as it doesn't want to hide steps on its side. I don't know why is that, I did two railings the same way. I would really appreciate any suggestions. Attached jps and skp file.

      Thanks Lila

    • RE: VRAY renders WITHOUT shadows , Please help!

      oh Yes, you are absolutely right - didn't know about that. However still didn't solved my problem, as in my model which I a currently working on, it doesn't show any shadows..

      I will attached exports I did yesterday from vray render and sketchup view export

      I will be now checking it the vray would render with shadows different copy of my model, and will come back to you with more info. If that would work that clearly would be a mircle! and I really hope for one!


      adding rectangle worked to get render with shadows - but only here


      that is exported view of skp scene with shadows on


      render with no shadows , and still i am using shadows on


      that just the photoshoped copy, so you can see more clearly there are no shadows
