Sorry, I'm not able to share many of the models and textures

Rendered out another scene.
Took around 4 hours and 770 passes on an i7-5820K CPU @ 3.3Ghz. Just to test if there is any point of going with more then 200 passes.

Also added a gif, so you can see the evolution from SketchUp > Raw render > Corona Tone mapping + Bloom and glare

Edit: added a third shot of a living room. For this one I did some basic CC in Photoshop and added a little depth with blur. Could probably do better by creating a z-depth image in SketchUp first.

For the final test I made an exterior render with Skatter and a bit of PP in Photoshop, including a lens blur form a SketchUp Z-depht map.
Looking forward to the next release to be able to create more complex materials.

Looking really good :) Nice test! It seems that Corona for Sketchup is not far from release :)

I am always amazed how beautiful renders you can do with our SketchUp plugin, considering how many features it lacks compared to 3ds Max plugin.

we will probably resume regular updates in february-march after some staff reinforcement

Just a minor update, we should have two guys working on SketchUp from the beginning of April, so realistically we can expect another release sometime mid to late April.

Looking really good :) Nice test! It seems that Corona for Sketchup is not far from release :)

I'd say we're still pretty far from release (my personal opinion), but we'll see how far would the new guys be able to push the development in few months.

Why do renders save with a lot of noise, I produced several with no noise after 80 passes and when I open the saved file from explorer it displays TONS of noise...¿?

Are you using denoising? There's probably a bug that the image is saved without denoising blended in.

Yeah, sorry for that. We haven't had the manpower to throw at SketchUp for a few months now. Fortunately that will change in the very near future and we'll be continuing the SketchUp development from April.

Ryuu, no worries, noise is solved with some extra render time ;)

I suppose the latest version for Sketchup is 2017 and i don't think Corona works with 2017 yet, does it? Or did you mean something else?
