i have the same problem
i think you have to download something as an update??:?

[Mocholate]

it seems you need to have 'sketckup pro' to be able to export files

get the sketchup to kerkythea exporter on this page:

http://www.kerkythea.net/joomla/index.php?option=com_remository&Itemid=42&func=select&id=7

it should install as a plugin in sketchup. easy from there.

Hi wtncffts, i downloaded that but still doesn't work ,

no plug in shows up in sketchup
and i cant figure anyway to files it in to Kerkythea

[wtncffts]

did you install the plugin?

if so, it should show up in sketchup under 'plugins' as Kerkythea Exporter, then you just click on 'export model'. in kerkythea, you open up the .3ds file that was created.

yeah ,did that ,but it doesnt show up , i was guessing thats the prob , maybe i installed it in the wrong location or something ?

thanks for your help , i spent all day trying to work it out .lol :p

[wtncffts]

it's been a long time since i downloaded it, but i think you have to install it in the sketchup/plugins folder, if it doesn't do that automatically.

thats what i did ,it just doen't want to work ,thanks anyway

i also have 'IRender" 'Vray" and 'Podium succesfullyin the plugin list although i cant get them to apply any render,
all i want to do is make reflective glass

[wtncffts]

ok sorry i couldn't help, perhaps you can try the kerkythea boards, they might be able to help you. i mean, things don't just not work for no reason, right?;)

:haha: usually no . seems thats the case though , as you said its pretty simple , what could be wrong ??

this could drive me nuts :haha:

thanks again for your time , i guess i can just make the models and render them later when i figure it out hey ?

[Mocholate]

nevermind

seems i unzipped it into the tempory internet file aswell , i had to delete temporary internet files before unzipping the exporter into the SU plugins folder

Tanster let me know if that helps :cheers:
