Hi,

i am a C4D-user but i downloaded Google Sketchup and now i am asking myself if it is possible to use the MW-Sketchup plugin with it, because i found the option: Extensions in the preferences.

Anyone knows more?

P.S.: I hope non of the Pro users is offended that i ask such a Freebe-Question.
;)

Haven't tried it with the Free version, but I doubt if you can. You're not supposed to be able to do any type of exports with the Free version.

ok, got the plugin some kind of working ....

i can see it in a plugin menu and can set up Maxwell parameters.

but i am missing some kind of render-button or export function.
in the export options it shows not up....

hmmm perhaps it is not allowed to set up additional exporters in google sketchup... ? ;)

Sketchup Google will not work with maxwell, because it lack the export fuctions, it is limited for google earth and 2d.
