Hi guys,

I am looking for a plugin that can destroy/create a crumbling effect on walls and buildings.

I came across this post on google groups, but cannot find the plugin used.

Redirecting to Google Groups

(groups.google.com)

Any ideas?

Thanks

very impressive..your best to date redner wise...you really are pushing vray to the max, id love to see what you could with vray within 3dsMax or Maya

Another great model. What renderer do you use by the way?

Great job, look great

anybody else got any more renders to show using vue and sketchup? Im on the fence about getting the export plugin for sketchup and would like to see more renders etc to give me an idea whats achievable.

Anybody using their sketchup model in VUE? If so how easy is it to use? Im using VUE PLE edition and im quite tempted to buy the Plugin to import sketchup models into vue..only thing is VUE kills my system so would also have to consider upgrading aswell.

Also if you do use it, can you post some of your renders so can give me the idea of what i can acheive?

Cheers

hi guys, iv placed a grass material on a sandbox, all looks good until i render. it seems to push the sandbox down/or the rest of the objects up level with the length of the grass...any ideas why this is happening?

Hi guys this is my first serious attempt at rendering in Vray, this has taking me around 8hrs on and off from start to finish. Its not flash by any means and could do with a lot more work, but i thought id post what i have so far.

Its full HDRI background and lighting which im quite chuffed about, still not got the hang of it, but im sure that will come in time.

Anyway here is the scene in question. Comments and criticism most welcome.

Managed to get it working..for some reason selecting Draw/Sandbox/From Scratch from the drop down menu doesnt work, but selecting it from the Toolbar does..strange but works great now.

ahhh i see, i shall try now

Hi guys, im trying to use the Sandbox tool from scratch (Sketchup 8 free) however it does not work. It asks me to place my first point so i do, then second point and it wont create this..what am i doing wrong?

Thanks in advance

Stunning

Cheers for the advice Rich O'Brien..

As for rendering, iv been playing with kerkythea, and must so its pretty darn good.

Hi everybody..iv been using Sketchup for a few months now mainly to plan my house..i wasnt planning on using it for anything more than this, but after coming across this site aswell as others, iv been inspired to take my sketchuping to the next level. I really enjoy creating interiors aswell as gardens so im looking to expand my tool set to allow me to create more complex 3d drawings.

Can you guys recommend me some neat and free plugins that will help me achieve more out of sketchup? The only plugin im using at the moment is 1001Bit which is pretty sweet.

Also recently iv started using Indigo renderer within sketchup, i was blown away by what can be done with this, and started to experiment with it...now as much as love this renderer i find it extremely slow, with some renders taking days to look good..im not impatient by any means but i find the slow render process a pain when it comes to wanting a quick preview of my model...
...Can anybody recommend an alternative to this? or and advice at all?

Thanks guys
