If Faces are reversed they will render blank in Kerkythea as well as any other rendering program. The grouping of items makes it easier to manipulate the model especially if multiple people will work on the file.Ģ. Faces need to be properly oriented towards the viewer. (Side Note)Ungrouped items are unusable in 3DsMax. Ungrouped items can potentially cause issues in Kerkythea. This is important when exporting to other programs for the simple fact that if you need to move or delete an object and it is connected to another object in the model, the later object will also be moved or deleted as well. For instance, windows and doors should be separate components from walls walls should be grouped separately from the site etc.
This brief tutorial will go over the major factors you must consider when modeling in SketchUp as well as a detailed instructions for rendering your model in Kerkythea.ġ. Component, Components, Components… When modeling in SKP, it is important that items be grouped logically.
