Now you can actually import heavy, high-poly FBX, OBJ, and 3DS models into SketchUp that you receive from other teams or that you purchased online from high-quality sites like TurboSquid. We suspect that Skimp can replace several existing tools and applications in your existing workflow, and do the same tasks much more efficiently. (* Intel Core i7-9700K CPU was used for both tests) Streamline your Workflow Of course, the SKP was basically useless after the import as we could barely orbit the model and the file size was 864 MB! Skimp is incredibly fast…see for yourself Using Skimp, we’ve imported a 4.5 million polygon STL file, reduced it to 2%, and brought it into SketchUp in just 26 seconds!(*)īut with SketchUp’s native STL importer, the same STL file took 7 minutes to import!(*). Whew! It’s just a toy T-rex! Just how fast are we talking?
IMPORT SKP INTO 3DS MAX 2011 TRIAL
Skimp’s import preview feature shows the size of the model’s bounding box so you don’t have to use trial and error when setting the model units. Have you ever imported a massive OBJ or FBX model into SketchUp but selected the wrong model units? The model was then imported WAY too small and nowhere near the origin! Skimp gives you the ability to actually preview the model and simplify the model BEFORE importing! For most models, the preview will be loaded in only a few seconds.įrom there, you can adjust orientation, model units, and number of faces so that you won’t waste precious time generating millions of faces inside SketchUp that will just slow down your model and increase the file size. But it’s not the speed that makes our import features so powerful. Thanks to everyone and is a pleasure to be part of such an amazing community.Skimp is an EXTREMELY FAST importer! It can import FBX, OBJ, STL, 3DS, DAE, PLY, and VRML into SketchUp in seconds. Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated. Does anyone have any advice or can steer me in a direction that could help me develop a rendering workflow using cad, su and ps only. I also have Photoshop CS6 which I’m learning different ways of rendering. Now it’s just a matter of speeding up my workflow. But I do have autocad in which I’m proficient, SU which I’m able to model almost anything. I can’t afford a rendering engine at this point. I’m just having a tough time creating awesome renderings without the modern architecture and materials. I just want to be able to add rendering services that can set me apart from competition. I’m an autocad guru that can offer design and drafting services to many of my friends in the industry. I haven’t been able to create even descent photorealistic rendering with the more historical and traditional architecture that is a huge part of the Charleston area. Browse to the folder where you stored the SketchUp file and select it, and click Open. Using the Import tool, notice that Google SketchUp (.SKP) is one of the file types listed as compatible. This is not necessary to import SketchUp files but it will make the renders nicer. Materials likemodern like glass,wood, metal and synthetics seem to work better when creating a rendering. In 3ds Max, ensure the Mental Ray Renderer is active. I feel that is easier to make this modern architecture pop more from a visualization point of view. It’s been tough because all of the tutorials and research that I’ve found are more tailored to urban scenes and modern architecture houses. I’ve been trying to find a way to create architectural visualization renderings for residential landscape designs. I want to contract 3d design services to many of the companies in the area. While studying LA at Clemson over 9 years ago, we touched on the very basics of SU because I don’t think anyone knew at that timethat it would become the staple in design that it is today. For the last 2 months I’ve been dedicating all my time in learning SU. There is a lack of LAs and designers here that have the skills and knowledge to produce 3d models and animations. But I’ve gotten to the point in which I want to start my own venture and fill a niche within my local industry. I’ve worked for and with some of the most renowned LAs in the Southeast. I have 18 years experience in the landscape design/build industry. (Continued from above) in Charleston, SC.
