    Default Problem importing Google Sketchup into Kerkythea

    Registered forum members do not see this ad.

    When i import my complex model, with models from google library the kerkythea does not recognise lights which i have placed in Sketchup and renders the whole screen blank... i am reversing all faces, making sure everything has a thickness...

    Are you using the light pack from the Kerky web site? Link

    I can't check it until tonight as I don't have kerky installed at work

    Try to use a default kerky light and see if that shows up. You might need to ask this at the kerky forums as it could be something in Kerky instead.

    I have tried, i'm pretty sure its something to do with sketchup. Like do the groups affect Kerkythea? The imported models etc.

    I don't think groups affect Kerky as I am pretty sure I have used groups before and they worked OK. How big is the SU file?
