    • RE: American Diner

      Cool stuff, one question however, what food is served there?

      By the name I'd assume that is an Indian cuisine diner.

      Ashoka the Great, was an Indian emperor of the Maurya Dynasty, who ruled almost all of the Indian subcontinent from c. 268 to 232 BCE

      What software have you switched to?

      Cinema 4D and Vectorworks, depending on the project, SU is used for previz fast designs and storyboards and the more robust software's used for the fine details and finished designs ready for build. Less and less people use Sketchup in my field, I sometimes feel like an outlier using MS paint while everyone else is using Photoshop.
      The ONLY reason I still use SU is the plugin authors that have kept SU going and as we see, they no longer create new plugins like they did and Trimble just do not innovate, unless dashed lines are what you want.

      How will the switch to subscription affect you?

      The little I do use SU for these days will get less and less, the days of excitement and participation are over, just look at the developers, remember when every week we had new and exciting plugins? now? not much at all.

      The innovation has stopped, the product has reached the peak of what it can on it's limited core, now they are milking every cent from it.

    • RE: So whats up with Sketchup??

      The world is dying from a pandemic, people are unemployed or struggling as work is slow, not to mention the whole political shitstorm caused by racist cops, what a great time to announce they will be spending more for less and there is no other real option but to rent their beloved software, great timing.

    • RE: So whats up with Sketchup??

      When Trimble ended the free version called 'Make' traffic slowed IMO. I still use SU, not enthusiastically as I did in the past, nor do I care much for the company Trimble as I feel they are souless money grabbers but alas, it's their baby now and they can milk it as they want.

      I have many tools available to my workflow and thankfully no longer trapped to one modeling software.

      @l i am said:

      COVID19= China Originated Virus Irresponsibly Distributed (2019)

      No, it does NOT stand for that, less conspiracy please.

      On February 11, 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) officially named this novel coronavirus COVID-19. COVID is short for coronavirus disease. The number 19 refers to the fact that the disease was first detected in 2019, though the outbreak occurred in 2020.

    • RE: Twinmotion is now free

      Has it got integration with SU? I know it does with Rhino.

      Unless it is integrated like Enscape and to a lesser extent Lumion, it cannot replace my workflow

      Normally just move the poles one by one out off the tube! πŸ˜„

      You think I never tried that? πŸ˜‰

      It is not selectable as static, and if not static it just falls

    • MS Physics help

      I need help figuring something out, see image below, the poles are holding up the balls, I want to show what happens when certain poles are removed, how can I do that?

      Currently I have poles as static.

    • RE: SketchUp 2010 -> 2019

      For me SU has not progressed at the pace of the other modeling apps out there, so I use it much less, only for quick easy stuff, C4D has pretty much taken the heavy lifting.
