v1.1.0 - SketchUp 21+ with V-Ray Rendering

Tested on: SketchUp: 2021, 2022, 2023 | OS: Windows, Mac OSX
  • During model importing via the Poliigon button, subsequent clicks will add more instances of the model. Press escape to end the multi placement mode.
  • The extension now remembers the last library path used for importing, which can also be quickly set or opened from the Extensions > Poliigon > Library path menu option
  • Fixed: Importing models with V-Ray rendering active no longer results in the proxy and full mesh overlapping, so you no longer need to restart the rendered view. Generally speaking, loading and stability is improved as well.
  • Fixed: SketchUp could crash on Mac OSX with outliner selection
  • Fixed: Resolve used to delete all meshes until render restart
  • Fixed: Sometimes materials would get loaded as white with Mac OSX
  • Fixed: Mac OSX auto resolves models when imported via the Poliigon button. In SketchUp 2023, auto resolving is still disabled for drag and drop. Drag and drop works in 2022 and 2021 on OSX, and on all 2021+ windows versions.
