An interesting idea. If you had 2 photos of one thing (from different angles), then it would be cool if you could have 2 scenes up at the top and be able to model using both as a reference. Maybe you could tell sketchup the different angles by having the picture lock onto facing the camera, then you orbit round until it is at the right angle, and unlock the picture. I don't know if I'm making sense, oh well, still an interesting idea...

Yo,

Just wondering if anyone else here is into gaming. Does anyone have any tips on how to make game skins with sketchup? Preferably source engine skinning.

Dont worry I worked it out myself, thank you so much for your help, this will make my model/render so much better!

Oh wow, how did you make all those variations, did you just subdivied more than once?

Hi all,

I'm making a scene of my living room, and want to know if anyone has any tips on making high detail fabric-looking chairs. I have tried the subdivide and smoove plugin, but it makes it too small and too rounded, and ideas?

Thankyou so much. If I could hug you I could. I have always wanted Pro, and now I have it!

Hi,

I have been wanting Sketchup Pro for a long time now, and when I realised I could get it cheaper for being a student, I had to take the opportunity. I sent off my details, student proof, and money to 'CreationEngine', and I recieved the e-mail conatining the authorisation code and that. I was so excited! I opened Sketchup Pro, clicked 'Help>Licence>Authorize...' then copied and pasted the info from the e-mail into notepad, exactly correctly, how it was. Then I copied it from notepad into the box. The lines turn blue one by one, and it gets to the bottom, then tells me 'Invalid serial number and/or authorization code' I click Ok, a bit annoyed. I copied and pasted my name, from notepad, into the thing, and the same for the other 3 fields, Company/Organisation, Serial Number, and Authorization number. Then press Ok. It comes up with a message saying this:

 Licence File:***Sketchup7.if
 Evaluation
 You have 448 minutes of application use left in the evaluation.

 User:***
 Company:***
 Serial:***

After this it goes to another box saying this:

 Sketchup Pro Evaluation
 A sketchup pro license unlocks LayOut, 3d Model exporters and entities you to free e-mail support.

It has three options 'Buy License...' 'Enter License...' 'Continue'

In the top right hand corner, sketchup still says 'EVAL', if that helps.

Is my licence activated? Do I have my year of use? If not, what do I do?

Please help me,
Thankyou,
Mike

Sorry I just wanted to say, thanks for sharing this plugin! It's great! I've got a small job making props for a mod called 'Aperture-M', a multiplayer portal.

I wonder if this gives you any more info. I hope someone understands this.

You don't need a new graphics card at all, go on to Window>Preferences>OpenGL>Correct reversed picking driver bug. Easy fix!
