Can't get the Skp2MXS.plugin to show up inside the sketchup export menu.
I'm running SU 4 on a dual G4 machine with the latest OS. I followed the install directions and put it in: Library/Application Support/SketchUp/Plugins/ but it doesn't load inside the program, although the MaxwellExport.rb ruby script shows up just fine in the plugins menu.

MaxwellExport is not fully tested with SU4 on OSX - can you please send me the version of SU4 which you are running? You can get it from about dialog of SU.

Thanks.

New Version beta 05

Just tried to use it and it crashes sketchup.

When i choose export mxs and click on the options button the dialog and sketchup close and bugsplat opens.

My beta 05 also crashes the same way (...export mxs...options). It will do the 5min default rendering if you dont select options.

Same here with SU5... Bug Splat on options for export

I just tried the new update on my dual G4 vers 10.4.2., SketchUp 5.

Textures do not render. None of the textures applied to my model show up in the Maxwell Render.

Correction. So far any existing SketchUp model made before plugin installation does not show applied materials. Models made after pluging installation show materials in render. Strange.

[Jake256]

Well, it seems the bug that involved illegfal characters in materail names has benn solved in any model created after the plugin installation. Great. But any model created before plugin installation will not render materials. If I rematerialize then they will show up in Maxwell render.

One good thing–one really bad thing.

Bump maps do work now. Previously they crashed Maxwell.

Confirmed. I am working on fix already...

Can't find the file updated on the 10th... I'm really locked with the 5 min renders and the "options" crashing the software.. grrrr...Can't really make any production image with MR until it can get bigger images...
Any hint how to solve the problem??

pavol is working on it - there isn't a newer version other than the one that crashes when you click on options

[messire]

I was wondering since there was people talking about some non crashable version . Lets hope he can come with a solution quick !

Thnx

Could it be a reverse face problem...?
I notice that when it happens, after reversing the face and reassigning the maxwell material then the SU map, it works.

I can’t get the Sky Dome working even in beta 06 (PC). It seems there is something more wrong than just the lack of light from the dome. If I place an emitter in the scene the image is still totally messed up.

Environment None + the same emitter:
