Wishing everyone from members to visitors a very Merry Christmas and prosperous new year

Little festive render to up the mood!

Some Rayscaper tests....

I love the Polyhaven integration to just drag drop HDRIs to switch up the lighting.

Would be nice if AI tackled real world problems rather than disrupting markets that create employment.

@pixelcruncher is hard at work crushing bugs and adding quality of life stuff for the next release....

Having some fun with Rayscaper

Stay safe @majid

SUbD fun with furniture

I've never seen or tasted Twinkies and for obvious reasons they couldn't have a brand name in the game.

Nor do I know what this even does in the game. But it was a fun challenge. The texture did all the work.

Are you on Mac or Windows?

You can't drag tools off Large Toolset on Windows and build a custom Toolbar.

HI there, I purchased a license for RoundCorner, but whenever I try to activate it, it doesn´t show in the licenses files box - as if I didn´t have it. How should I proceed?

You are probably running outdated extensions.

Please run the Window > Libfredo Settings > Fredo6 Plugins Information for Sketchucation Support menu command in SketchUp and copy/paste the output into your reply.

@Rich-O-Brien Thanks Rich, I am hoping that I can do some modelling for the Aviation museum. They even have a genuine spitfire. If memory serve me well you were an Aviation Engineer

Indeed I was. Specialised in Sheet Metal, Welding and Composites. Ended up as a Technical Trainer before redundancy happened.

I'd love to poke around those planes in the pic. Especially the Lancaster Bomber! Would love to squeeze into the front gunner spot.

You deserve every benefit you have. It's not luck it's recognition for years of duty.

Hope we have you around for many years to come. Enjoy the new pad!

@fredo6 Dome works great. Do you plan to add support to maintain UVs?

I'm now curious what your prompt was

• God rays from right to left. Chairs are red leather. Flooring is aged and stained pine floorboards. The dining table is rustic oak and slight worn with water stains on the top surface from mugs.
• The is a man sitting in the chair on the right reading a newspaper about Bitcoin.
• The light shades transparent glass and are embossed with a diamond pattern.
• The glass in the windows has water staining and mildly grimy.

I'd say you are better off putting this out on watercolor subreddits or something similar.

I'd love to learn to paint but I wouldn't have the time

Just tried. Easy to use. I like the Styles.

Clever tool. Definitely has a SketchUp vibe to it. Much better than the vanilla AI render in SketchUp.

Amazon had outages late Saturday night which resulted in some services going down on our end.

We rectified it Sunday and are monitoring uptime.
