I'm getting a "collecting faces -level 0-" message when clicking export button. than nothing happens. I have this on tutorial scene from 1.1.x tut.
What could this mean?

Hi Whaat,

I came across a SkIndigo error when trying to export a group for which I had Enabled Instancing. Please see the error from the console below:

Code: Select all

Error: #<NoMethodError: undefined method `definition' for #<Sketchup::Group:0x9a44408>>
C:/Program Files/Google/Google SketchUp 6/Plugins/SkIndigo_1_1_12.rb:7130:in `export_instances'

C:/Program Files/Google/Google SketchUp 6/Plugins/SkIndigo_1_1_12.rb:8163:in `call'
I noticed you had made an update for this reason, and Pibuz had also reported this error and then reported the error fixed ... so I'm wondering if I'm using the feature wrong or perhaps have found something else entirely. I have downloaded the most recent v1.1.12 file.

I merely made a box, grouped it, enabled instancing on this box, made a copy, hit export, got an error (see above.) Now once i disable instancing the export completes and the render starts.

Let me know what I'm doing wrong or if I can try something else. Thanks!



*edit*
ok. this same operation works just fine at home ... ? what gives? i will be re-downloading the ruby. sorry for this blabber. :/

Love the update - the new interface is intuitive and easy to use! Many thanks, Whaat!

And by the way, I love the way blackbody/rgb are converted to diffuse emitters!

Bug report:
I've had issues when i uncheck "low CPU priority".
After export, the first few passes go fine, but suddenly the render turns completely black. Indigo keeps on running, but the output is all black.

I'm not sure where the problem is located, since skindigo exports the scene just fine. But it's only happened to me with skindigo 1.1.12.
I experienced it on two different scenes on two different computers, with indigo 1.1.12 and 1.1.13

Am I doing something wrong?

That sounds more like an over-bright issue than a low-prior one.
I know that Skindigo still doesn't have linear support... does it have camera-support?
For now: Inside Indigo, when it turns black, try to switch tonemapping from (most likely) Reinhard to Linear or Camera. Then, it should work fine ;)

First,let me thank you Whaat for the great Skindigo.
I being a bit away from here and I came back and started to play around with Skindigo 1.1.12 and it works very well. The only thing that is not working is the diffuse transmitter mat. Will it be fixed any time soon?
If not I have to go back to stable version but I love layer blending and real time tone mapping.

Thanks, Whaat.

One small improvement idea.

Post by dsmatthews » Sat Jan 03, 2009 12:29 pm

Add the -n wm option to the .bat file generation code.

I made this change and it works well, now any stray slaves on my network lend a hand whenever I run a render from SketchUp 7

Mix operating systems and WiFi network, and it works really well.

Thanks for the xmass present. :D

Found a small bug, SU allows duplicate material names

Post by dsmatthews » Sat Jan 03, 2009 2:22 pm

SU 6 and 7 will let you have more than one material with the same name and the indigo exporter is using that list of names without checking for duplicates even though the renderer will not allow such duplication (in mesh declarations?).

Perhaps there is another unique identifier that SU uses that should be used rather than the text label for the material?
