Alright. Can the new version also have a fix for my ground cover issue?

It took me while to find a machine that has a version of SketchUp 2015, to test with.

But one I finally found one. The PJ25 version loaded and rendered for me, and the Ground Plane material worked fine in the new extractor.

So I'll need your help in figuring out why it did not load for you.

Could you open the Ruby Console Window, and Enter:

load 'RPS_IRender_nXt/RPS_IRender_nXt2.rb'

and send me all the text that appears in the Ruby Console Window?

There is a lot of text that I cannot see. It is scrolled above the top of the window.

Can you copy all the text in that window and send it yo me?

You can right click in the window and select "Select All", and then right click again and select Copy to get all the text, and then paste it all into your forum reply.

Thanks.

That looks like it loaded.

Does the IRender nXt functions menu show up under extensions, as below?

I get it now...I was thinking of the way we not let you assign a material, like displacement grass, to the Ground Plane. That works in the new extractor.

But, normal ground cover plants assigned to a surface does not work in the new extractor..

I'll fix that and post a new version.

Thanks
