Skindigo 2.6.1 & Sketchup 8 problem

[antonis]

Hello to everyone. I've installed Skindigo 2.6.1 in Sketchup 8 and when I hit the render button nothing happens. I had the same problem with Skindigo 2.4.13 in Sketchup 8. Materials and camera settings are working fine. Is there a solution? Thanks.

Just checking, have you installed Indigo?

Yes I have installed it. Indigo first and then Skindigo. Same version.

Please check for error messages in the Ruby Console window when you press the render button.

Thanks.

I checked for errors and in the ruby console writes this: [Error: #<Errno::ENOENT: No such file or directory - C:\Users\Anthony\AppData\Roaming/Indigo Renderer>
C:/Program Files/Google/Google SketchUp 8/Plugins/skindigo.rb:1043:in `mkdir'

Then I checked the specified folder above and I opened the "log" icon. It writes: [Tue Jan 18 23:10:07 2011

Any suggestions? Thank you.

It's possible that it has something to do with the characters in your username.

What if you login to Windows with a username with only English characters.

Can you test if this works?


Thanks.

[antonis]

Did this. Works just fine thank you!!!

Hi!

I have changed my name in the windows user settings, but it doesn't work Please help!

[Andevery]

My installation path is "D:\Soft\Indigo Renderer\" and username "Александр"
I added to skindigo.rb two lines:

ENV['APPDATA']="D:/Soft"
ENV["USERNAME"]="Alexander"

after

module SkIndigo
VERSION="2.6.1"
VERSION_="2_6_1"
RELEASE_DATE="10 January 2011"

It's worked for me

[anesthetized]

It is all about no-english charakters in username! Silly, but get used to. I just made another user and i change user in windows when i have to render and everything works fine.

take care

You can change your windows username so you won't need to switch accounts.

Now who wants to be a good little gineau pig and see if this messes up something?

[anesthetized]

I have changed my user name first, but it did't work. I'm using windows vista- maybe that's the reason

Hi, I have SKP 8 , Indigo and Skindigo ver 2.6.1 and a huge problem

A problem occurred with the scene:
ObjectExcep: Exception while building tree: Memory allocation failed while building kd-tree
Indigo version: Indigo Renderer v2.6.1, Windows 32-bit build.
Exporter: SkIndigo version:2.6.1
Platform: i386-mswin32

Any ideas? Is there a solution ?
thanks.

Probably some mesh is subdivided, you may want to reduce the subdivisions level.

When using subdivisions, one level increase results in 4 times more triangles.
