SkIndigo 0.7 Tutorial (WIP)

Download the SkIndigo 0.7 WIP tutorial here. You need Sketchup to run the tutorial which is a free download:

You should also be using SkIndigo 0.7test7 which can be downloaded here:

I hope the tutorial makes sense. It's meant to be a very basic introduction to using the exporter. I will try to update it to keep it current with the latest releases of Indigo/SkIndigo.

Let me know if there are any bugs/problems with the tutorial. Thanks.

EDIT:
Tutorial temporarily removed. It is now included when you download SkIndigo 0.7.1 from the Downloads section of this website.

First time user here and I have a few questions. When I go to the download it bring the zip file up and then the skindigo_07.rb comes up but I cannot open it or do any thing with it. When I open the indigo.exe it says " Unable to locate component". Then it says " This app. has failed to start because ijl15.dll was not found. Reinstalling the app. may help fix the problem." and the file is in the zip file. So I open the ijl15.dll and it is a bunch of text. I then went back to the .exe file and it will open a little buthten says "Infile.excep. could not open file 'localinfile.txt'.
Any help on how to download or if I may have something to add before downloading will be a great help!!!

Thanks in advance.

Welcome to Indigo, Maverick! I think you are confused about how to install Indigo. First of all, you should be using Indigo 0.7 with SkIndigo 0.7.1. Indigo 0.7 should be unzipped to some easily accessible location on your computer (such as C:/Indigo). Do not copy 'indigo.exe' to another location! Make sure 'indigo.exe' is in the same directory as ijl15.dll. To install skindigo, just copy 'skindigo_07.rb' into your Sketchup/Plugins directory. Do not copy anything else into the Plugins directory.

Happy rendering!
