Updated Archicad plug-in now available!

Updates and improvements:

- OSX Intel platform now supported
- Archicad texture rotation is taken into account when exporting to Maxwell
- Project settings stored on different platform are ignored when loading (prevents corruption of project data when moving projects between platforms)
- Support for setting number of rendering threads added
- Latitude/longitude ranges were wrong preventing user to set certain values: fixed!
- GMT range was wrong (-12/+14): fixed!
- Film width/ height controls were switched in panel
- Better handling of transparency (attenuation distance, ND)


Updated SketchUp plug-in now available!

Updates and improvements:

- SketchUp materials Maxwell library added to the installation
- Support for exporting internal SU textures added
- If texture file is missing it is exported from SketchUp project to a separate texture folder
- If texture file cannot be extracted it is ignored by Maxwell (error log written) - prevents problems running Maxwell rendering when texture files are missing
- Geometry is exported based on SketchUp material name instead of material values
- Allows to export geometry separately even if it uses the same material values (but with different material names) - simplifies material assignment in Maxwell Studio
- Error log cleaned-up (confusing messages removed)

You can find the updated plug-ins on the regular customer download page. Enjoy!!!!
