• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Sketchup

This should be of interest to those of you who make scenery objects for FS. Google Sketchup is a free 3D design program that has been available for a few years now, but objects made with Sketchup were not usable in FS. Arno Gerretson (GENIUS!!!!) is developing a program that will convert Sketchup objects to mdls that can be used in FS. It's still under development, but I've been able to use it successfully. :applause:

Read this thread for some comments on how Sketchup compares to Gmax...
