Is anyone else getting black (completly black) renders with the new version?

Not here. I did a few simple tests to check things out, everything seems fine so far.

Oh please note a broken exporter again!!!!

I'll wait till the bugs are out till I instalthe new one, thanks for the warning guys! Sort of!

It seems as though its both an enviroment export problem and maybe camera position also. I opened an exported mxi in studio and the model appeared to be miles off screen when viewed through the su camera.

I had problem ith textures also in 1.1.
What about you.
Is this only a 1.5 thing?

I just want to drop a line even though I do not have a full testing results (and thus no relevant information) so far. I am monitoring the situation and I can promise a quick plugin release once the problems are confirmed.

dear pavol,

greetings from berlin.

please advise if i can help at all, i would be happy to send you a test file, etc. note i am using a macbook pro, 2.16/2GB ram, 10.4.9 ... mx 1.5ub, etc.

does it have something to do with the changed locations of the texture (material) files?

also, it is difficult to understand the new install technique - where do the new SU textures come?

best,

jason

Hi,

I am on latest Mac OSX on a Powerbook. I just installed the latest Maxwell update for OSX and created a simple test scene of ground plane, cube, and sphere. MXCL reports the file exported from SketchUp to be invalid.

Thanks for any updates, Pavol!

config: win XP pro 32 // xeon 3.0 / 4GB ram
SU6
MR 1.5 + 1.8 plug in

---------------------------------------------
- black sky in render ( with physical sky ) > solved by unchecking alpha layer export
- unmatch between SU cam and MR view when rendering ( horizontal offset and lower field of view). (field of view reduced by at least 40%)

to be continued

thnx
Nils

messire

that's my conclusion too. I think why i get black renders is due to the view being shiftded during export to below the ground plane.
