There?s a reason SketchUp is synonymous with friendly and forgiving 3D modeling software: we don?t sacrifice usability for the sake of functionality. Start by drawing lines and shapes. Push and pull surfaces to turn them into 3D forms. Stretch, copy, rotate and paint to make anything you like. If you want to be productive within a couple of hours, you?ve come to the right place.
Find a 3D model of anything
Why model everything from scratch? Whether it?s a chair for the room you?re designing or a rhino for your zoo, you?ll find almost anything you need in SketchUp?s 3D Warehouse, the world?s biggest repository of free 3D models. And anyone can use 3D Warehouse to store and share models. Upload your best work and become a SketchUp legend.
Turn models into documents
At some point in most 3D projects, you?ll need to turn your model into a set of drawings that gets the point across. LayOut in SketchUp Pro lets you add model views to pages, choose drawing scales, adjust line weights, and add dimensions, callouts, and graphics. Make a change to your SketchUp model, and find it reflected automatically in LayOut. And when it?s time, export PDFs, images and CAD files.
Make SketchUp yours
SketchUp is meant to be customized. Thanks to our Ruby API and an amazing community of developers, today you can explore an entire universe of extensions. These are add-on tools built to solve the kind of 3D modeling problems that might otherwise leave you scratching your head. Need to draw 3D moldings? There?s an extension for that. Wouldn?t it be cool to bend your models to fit a curve? That?s possible, too. Photorealistic rendering? Definitely. If you can imagine a SketchUp extension, chances are it already exists.
Warning: Be sure to scan all the downloaded files with your Antivirus and if there is an executable or installer file, make sure to have your antivirus active and open in the background while installing or running the app. Some of the materials posted here are downloaded from CGPeers, So they could potentially have something injected in them.
We always ask bloggers to scan all the files before publishing the posts, but sometimes it's hard to detect all these things, so if you found anything suspicious (Not false positive, Generic, Patcher, Riskware and Heuristic results, most patches could get false flags like that by some Antivirus companies.) be sure to post comments with the file name and a VirusTotal report result link or the file MD5 Hash (higher than 30% overall positive result). Thank you.
Soory This is sketchup make not Pro.
Well people dont need sketchup 2016 unless there’s a VRAY 2.0 plugin for 2016.
just google it ;-) you’ll be surprised!
Sorry I meant Vray 3…
