Re: Can SketchUp building can become SimuTrans building? Reply #8 – September 07, 2009, 04:26:21 am Well, the camera is not adjusted properly. Quote Selected
Re: Can SketchUp building can become SimuTrans building? Reply #9 – September 07, 2009, 09:44:27 am Usually the conversion from 3D models to the view that Simutrans needs is tricky. The good thing is, once you figured the proper camera settings, you can do it all over with all the models.I sure have put a day or two of work into my camera settings, too, when I was experimenting with raytraced images for one of my projects. Just to give you an example, that it other people also need their time for such. Quote Selected

Re: Can SketchUp building can become SimuTrans building? Reply #11 – September 07, 2009, 09:54:40 am No, I have been using Blender and PovRay. But the process of setting the camera is similar in most 3D tools.Tricky is that usually 3D tools want to render perspective images, while Simutrans needs isometric images. If the tool does not support orthogonal/isometric rendering, it sometimes helps to have a very narrow angle and large distance for the camera view. But I have no idea how SketchUp handles the camera, so I might rather confuse but help you with these details ... Quote Selected
Re: Can SketchUp building can become SimuTrans building? Reply #12 – September 07, 2009, 01:09:21 pm Povray can also be used in SketchUp, look at this attraction: it was made on Google, with Povray! Quote Selected
Re: Can SketchUp building can become SimuTrans building? Reply #13 – September 07, 2009, 01:23:37 pm Ok, then it should be easy to get an orthographic camera setting with Povray ... and I should look into SetchUp, since PovRay is my favorite renderer and if SketchUp can use it, it will be something for me, too.

Re: Can SketchUp building can become SimuTrans building? Reply #14 – September 08, 2009, 02:33:32 am Well, SketchUp is a 3D modelling programme where you can make houses or anything and you can show off your models at the 3D Warehouse. Quote Selected

Re: Can SketchUp building can become SimuTrans building? Reply #18 – September 09, 2009, 09:35:14 am The gaps are due to a wrong camera/point of view alignment. Use the base pak64 tile as background tile...link. Quote Selected

Re: Can SketchUp building can become SimuTrans building? Reply #22 – September 09, 2009, 09:50:43 am Open both images. Make a selection that includes your building and then cut and paste that selection in the pak64 base tile image..you don't need any special editing program. All are basic actions (select, cut, paste, open, move selection) available even in Microsoft Paint, the painting program that is included in Windows. Quote Selected
Re: Can SketchUp building can become SimuTrans building? Reply #23 – September 09, 2009, 10:15:15 am Still can't. Those re-sizing makes the picture not nice.Just help please! Quote Selected
Re: Can SketchUp building can become SimuTrans building? Reply #24 – September 09, 2009, 10:18:13 am I'd first try to adjust the camera in SketchUp to get a closer match. The remaining problems I'd try to fix by painting. Quote Selected
