Definitive guide to upgrade with sketchup 8
Ready to take the plunge this weekend. Tried to go thru the different messages, wondering if Al or someone can post clear steps AND especially links to the correct nxt files when going to Sketchup 8. Basically, what what has to be uninstalled, reinstalled and in what steps,
thanks,
Larry

We have the data in this thread: Installation into SketchUp 8
Downloads
Click on Downloads and select the latest version of IRender nXt (currently JJ26)
Reinstalling
The cleanest way to do this is to:
1. Uninstall the application. This will remove it from the old version of SketchUp.
To uninstall, download the latest version, and if it offers Reinstall/Uninstall - choose Uninstall. If the only option is install - then skip this step 1.
2. Re-install it selecting the new SketchUp location.
If you uninstall and reinstall, then when you install later upgrades, they will install into the proper version of SketchUp. (You will be prompted for the SketchUp version - choose SketchUp 8)

Just to be clear:
JJ26 is the latest post for IRender nXt for SketchUp.
JJ29 is the latest post for the Revit product, AccuRender nXt for Revit.

Al,
hopefully I'm not the only one working on the weekend. Sorry about not finding the other threads, guess I looked too quickly. Some forums have "stickies" with FAQs and other critical threads always on top...any chance of that? Anyway, followed the instrucitons uninstalled, reinstalled nxt in SU8 etc. I have SU 8 running and the menubar has Plugins - and the drop down from that has only 1 listing "Irender Beta - Load". Keep clicking that, nothing happens, no nxt avaiable. HELP!!!!!!!!!

There is no current Beta version you need to unnstall and/or remove it
remove IRender_nXt_Beta_loader.rb from the Sketchup plugins older, and completely remove the folder IRender_nXt_Beta from the Render Plus folder in Program Files.
You also could problbly uninstall the Beta version using Control Panel / Add or remove programs.

We can't do Stickies. But I did add a new panel on the left side of the home page which may help.
Also - I "featured" this discussion - which seems to put it at the top.

suggest you "feature" your FAQ email from 10/21 as well

Thanks for the suggestion.
I "featured" both the FAQ and the Upgrade threads - which places them at the top of the help desk - and also added them to the top of the right hand column of the web site.

The latest version gives you a chance to select a SketchUp version for
installation even when updating an old installation, so you do not have
to uninstall and reinstall to change versions anymore.

If you purchased your license within the past 12 months, you can upgrade to the latest version at no charge - which will work with SU 8.
If your license is more than 12 monhs old, you will need to purchase an upgrade to use IRender nXt with SU 8.
An upgrade is $195.00
