Definitive guide to upgrade with sketchup 8

Posted by Larry Goldberg on October 29, 2010 at 2:15pm in IRender nXt ArielVision 3D Design Studio (Sket

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

    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

    I have a little doubt. i have the full version of IRenderNXT on my SU7...if i download the 8th version of SU and reinstall IRenderNXT, will i be able to use the full version of it or i will have to purchase it again?

    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.

    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.

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

    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.

    well I'm back in business, it was that beta nxt and could only remove with the add/remove programs, but all is well, thanks

    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.

    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!!!!!!!!!

    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.

    Click refresh on the downloads page - mine shows JJ29.
