It was bothering us for a long time as well. It turned out to be a typo in the Sketchup API documentation! the update (build 13) should work fine now.

1. Fix the access violation error.

2. GPU version fix the "getting too bright" when increasing the rendering path depth.

3. Other tweaks.

We have fixed the problem. Can you please download the update...

ok, can you PM me one of your model so i can try it?

ok so sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't. All on the same model?

Which version of Sketchup? Does it do it on all models or when did it start happening?

Are you using the latest version of Raylectron (v4.99 build 12)?

I get what you are saying and that's why there are software like Lumion and Twinmotion which will give nice results and fast. Raylectron wasn't designed for this, it was designed for another reason, otherwise, we would have use The Unreal engine and do like everyone else. The grass in Raylectron was...

With the model being triangulated to begin with, it will never look 100% like real life because no matter the render engine you use, triangles are flat and it's surface shape is approximated. Now, there is nothing perfectly sharp, not even a razor blade, you look at one under a microscope and it is ...

No there isn't as it doesn't change the geometry. Do you have a screen shot of how fake it looks? Perhaps round the edges in Sketchup first. I always tell the designers to model as it would be in real life and the render will reflect this work.

That's just it, the materials listed in the drop down comes from the default materials upon installing Raylectron, in the folder of the icon next to the drop down.

If you just download the full installation EXE, not the RBZ, it will reinstall the material folder. Uninstall the one you already have first so there isn't 2 copied in 2 different place. Have you done a search on your C: to find that folder so that you don't lose the materials you created?

Have you installed it using the EXE once before when you had all the materials and then installed the update using the RBZ from within Sketchup instead?

It doesn't really matter where as long as all the file are in it. Is it empty?

It looks like it's not looking in the proper folder or that it has moved. When you click on the yellow folder icon next to "Convert this material", does it open the right one? It should be in your "Documents\Raylectron\Favorite Materials".

I've never experience this before. Can you orbit etc and still all black?. Is it an outdoor scene? Can you PM me some screen shots or even PM me the SKP model? It's very hard to find the problem without visualizing it.

You do not need to de-activate the CPU to install the GPU, the activation is good for both and you can install both (in 2 different folder) and create shortcuts to use either. As for the resolution, must be a bug and we will address this. But, did you first stop the render and place it in performanc...

Hello Rick,

I have reset your activation code so you should not have any problems to activate now.

Can you please give me more details and screen shots? What do you mean render a flat image? This is suppose to be for 3D objects not 2D.

I have replied.

Let me reply to you via email again, make sure yo check your spam/junk box...

You are welcome.

I just opened the model and from the Sketchup "VIew" menu, I selected "Section Planes" and there they are, a bunch of them, like more than a dozen...

BW does save the date returned by the server. However, if the file is auto-generated via a script like PHP then the date will be the time of the download.

I totally understand and I'm glad you're back into modeling, hope this year is better than the last!
