Whaat · Post by **Whaat** » Fri Jul 24, 2009 2:29 am

Not much changed in this release. I am now using some scripts to automate the building and releasing of SkIndigo so hopefully there will be no problems (eg. missing files).

EDIT: Fixed Windows installer and updated files with Version 2.0.11b

#Version 2.0.11b

#Changed: Exporting frame upload period of 120 seconds for network rendering
#Fixed: Monochrome render mode (clay)
#Fixed: animation export bug with default material applied

#Version 2.0.11

#Changed: now getting indigo path on windows from registry
#Changed: changed allowable range of exposure compensation to +-20

SkIndigo 2.0.11b Windows Installer
SkIndigo 2.0.11b ZIP
Getting Started Tutorial (WIP)
Advanced Features Tutorial (WIP)
Texturing Tutorial (WIP)

Let me know of any bugs.

Enjoy!
Dale

Ok Whaat: I report a disfunction.
I Installed SkIndigo specifying the correct folder (SU7PRO) but when I started SketchUp a window popped up saying that a WinAPI file could not be found. So, I just copied-pasted it from an old folder I had on the pc.

Maybe you simply forgot to add the file to the installer. Or maybe I was doing something wrong.

BTW, now it works perfectly.

You're right pibuz! Somehow the winAPI file was not included in the installer. It is however included in the ZIP version. Thanks for the report! I will fix this ASAP

mine worked out of the box. ZIP method as noted.

See first post:

Fixed windows installer and updated files with version 2.0.11b. This version brings back monochrome render mode which can be used for clay renders. If you have your face style set to monochrome, this mode will be activated automatically and all materials will use an Oren-nayar material which is the same color as your default SketchUp material. So, if you want a clay colored material, you have to first change your default SketchUp material color to a clay color.

Hi Whaat!
I'm using this release of SkIndigo, and I encountered a strange error.
I attach a screen of the log.

I launch the preview of this mat, and while running, Indigo cannot save the thumbnail image. That's odd, because all the others material preview correctly, and are located in the same folder...

What can it be?

SOLVED! many thanks.
The SU material had a slash in the name...

Ok, solved THAT problem but back with a new issue here!
Perhaps you already know that, but I'd like to point it out either, just to give you something MORE to work on

So, I noticed that there are some problems when I mirror a geometry which I applied to a specular shader, like a glass or something. The problem always shows up when I flip the group/component along an axis, doesn't do anything when I copy or rotate the geometry.
It partially turns black, unevenly and strangely. It often renders black curves over the mirrored surfaces.

I don't know if you already know the problem. If not, I'll render a simple scene to show you the problem. Tell me if you need that.

Thank you a lot!

Hi Pibuz,

I think this problem was mentioned awhile ago, but I thought it occurred only when using the 'mirror' plugin. I will look into it.

Whatt,

Thanks for all the great work on Skindigo - have you got any idea when / if animation will be working on the Mac version?

Thanks in advance!

Simon

Hi there,

Just downloaded Indigo as well as Skindigo 2.0.11d (running Mac OS X 10.5.7), put all the plugins into the sketchup 7 plugins folder, and I get this error when I select Indigo from the applications list when I first open Sketchup.

Error Loading File skindigo.rb
Permission denied - /Library/Application Support/
Google SketchUp 7/SketchUp/Plugins/
indigo_2_0_11cpath.txt

Any thoughts?

Many thanks for your time.
