    • Sketchup 2 vue export: triangles issue

      Hi! When I'm importing SU model into VUE10 I get incorrect triangulating. This causes incorrect ecosystem applying on the face...
      (Tried to export in diff formats, like obj, dae, etc., chose or not "trianguate faces" in SU export options. Smoothing option in VUE works incorrectly, it change geometry of the face)

      On the picture you can see holes in applied ecosytem, where triangulation lines are too often (too close to each other)

      Are there any chances to fix it? E.g., make triangulation in another way, or something else...

    • RE: [NEW]Sketchup 2 Vue

      @notareal said:

      I do believe that if Starlex where modelling with quads in the beginning, he would not had those displacement issues.

      this is it, but I can't imagine how it will be with arcs...

    • RE: [NEW]Sketchup 2 Vue

      Does this bug solved in SU2Vue Exporter? Using via .3ds or .obj export method it is impossible to use texture displacement on sketchup surfaces

    • Manual input duplicating

      Hi!

      Once upon a time I used duplicating feature with manual input: e.g. - copying 20 objects along line with spacing 1500 mm. In this case input looks like that: 1500 x20
      But now it doesn't work((( What Im doing wrong?

      Thanks!

      Hi!

      I'm trying to get curved 3D text

      as you see on pic I have to place it along arc. It spends to much time when I do it manually, and i can't preserve even distances between letters

      How can I do this more easy?

      That's almost good)

      And it will be the best, if it will be able to add more "glitter" - to make more little unevenness (smile). Give me more! (smile)

    • RE: Sketchup and Hi-Poly Objects

      Thanx a lot!

      And how about integration between SU and Vue? For example, I find 3Ds extension, with it 3DsMax can import .skp without any loss. But I wasn't worked with 3Ds Max before, and (I was hear about autodesk "fascism"(smile)) it was too hard to start to work in 3Ds. So, what about difficulty? Is it harder then Max?

      I was noticed, than SU7 is more faster with Hi Poly objects than SU6. Maybe, if I will bought quad-core top processor, I will be able to work with trees and plants in SU?

    • Sketchup and Hi-Poly Objects

      Hello

      I'm working with lanscape 3D modelling. There are many hi detailed objects, such as trees. But after adding this object, Sketchup slows down (X2 5200 MHz, GF8800)

      Are there any limitations to draw simple forms (e.g. terrain and buildings)in Sketchup and adding trees in Vue or 3Ds? After that I'm need to render scenes in Artlantis.

      Will it all work together? Will I be able to export projects from Sketchup to 3Ds or Vue with applied textures? What will you recomend for 3D hi poly objects modelling - Vue or 3Ds?
