Instal Irender nxt for sketchup 2013

how do I install the irender nxt plugin for sketchup 2013?

only works with one sketchup model on trial version

Great program and super easy to use, but I can only get it to work with one sketchup model. I tried with different models in different files to test it out there, and the render "starts", but the Arielvision window that pops up only stays open for a

Panorama Rendering

It appears that the button to activate panorama rendering in the rending tab has disappeared. Is there some other setting that I need to adjust to make it appear again?

Creation of *.epg files

In the past, as recent as 2012, Renderplus Nxt for Revit provided an option to save the output file as an *.epg whis used as an inout for Piranesi, a 3-D painting program. I was able to successfully render within Revit using the render plus engine wi

Shadows and HDRi

How do you control shadows when you use the HDRi sky + Background preset? When I use it, either the shadows are gone, or at some other angle than in the SketchUp file.

Pre rendering performance in iRender nXt

Is there a way to speed up the Analyzing Geometry and the Reading Batch File phase prior to rendering?  I notice that these 2 phases only utilize one processor thread out of 16 available. The rendering phase does use all 16 threads. For example a 127

Slow "Select Material" Tool

Hi

One of my student created a very nice bridge. She wanted to use material of the library. Unfortunately the process to change a material is very slow (15 Minutes and more):

The SketchUp-Model has ca. 2.5 Mio surfaces. 

Does that mean it is to lar

Animation not rendering Correctly

When I run an animation my scenes are not rendering correctly, they appear to only be partially done or just cut off or not there at all.  All of my scenes are rendering correctly when I batch render or when I render individually.

Speed up render process

I have a office building which i am modelling, however the render process is seriously slow.  When it loads it says i have approx. 470 lights but i only have about 100 in the model.  It takes 22hrs to do a single hi-res pass (4996 x 2736).  Any tips?

Skatter Sketchup Plug-in for Proxy Objects – IRender nXt Support: is it possible?

I do not know if you are aware of this new plug-in for Sketchup. It is very impressive and is the missing link in creating a realistic landscape using 3D components without being hindered by the memory overhead that eventually cripples Sketchup. Noth

Materials Libraries

I was watching an old video tutorial on materials for iRender. The tutorial is from 2010 and references a ‘Material Library’ button that will access the nXt libraries. My version of the software doesn’t have that particular button, but does have the

Is there a Sketchup file size limit for Irender

My office has been working on a model of a 400 seat restaurant, with 7 rooms that depending on the rendering can be see in most views. The file is now 400mg. Is this insane to think we can now render this file. Do I need another rendering software.
