SkIndigo 3.6.20 (beta)
Posted: Sat Aug 24, 2013 1:13 am
Hello,
This is a beta release - please test. You need Indigo 3.6.0 or greater to use this version.
To Install:
1) Download RBZ file from link below
2) In SketchUp, go to Window->Preferences->Extensions
3) Uncheck the SkIndigo checkbox, press OK, restart SketchUp
4) In SketchUp, go to Window->Preferences->Extensions->Install Extension
5) Select the RBZ file you downloaded
6) Check the SkIndigo checkbox again.
7) Restart Sketchup again.
NOTE: this elaborate process is to make sure the asset files get updated properly, which doesn't work if the extension is enabled.
Some features are WIP. You can now create custom preview scenes by selecting 'New.." from the preview scene dropdown list. You just need to have a material in your scene named 'previewmaterial'. There is no way yet to delete a custom preview scene. They are stored here:
C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Indigo Renderer\su_preview_scenes
The 1m scale preview scene is not working fully yet. You can try it out but it does not scale displacement properly yet (it works with absorption and media settings though).
Material loading of the new material types also does not work yet.
Changelog:
#Version 3.6.20
#Worked around error when exporting scene in some cases. (Error: #<NoMethodError: undefined method `definition' for nil:NilClass>)
#Fixed export error with displacement. (Error: #<NoMethodError: undefined method `out' for #<IndigoTexture:0xd409b710>>)
#Made all preview scenes have width and height 256, which fits the pop-up window well.
#Made all preview scenes have image save period 1, and made the thumbnail update timer to 1 second for faster mat previews.
#Fixed auto detection of Indigo path.
#Changed default image save period to 30 mins.
#Increased max value for image save period spinbox as well.
#Added detection of SketchUp 2013 to Windows installer.
