Subject: Texture problem Sketchup to Vue

Hey,

I'm just doing some basic things in Vue and have very little experience. I have worked with Vue before, but not to a very great extent.

I have this model in Sketchup, and now want to export the model to a format Vue can read; but I'm hitting a wall with the textures: they're just not showing or showing weirdly in Vue. Example:

Church in Sketchup kerk+naaldwijk.jpg

Church in Vue Untitled.jpg

I have tried different setting with faces, textures, file formats; and I've tried some things with the model in Sketchup. But honestly, I have no idea what I'm doing and what I'm doing wrong to find a specific solution.

Could someone help? If you need more information, please let me know.

Thanks

is the model UV mapped? and are you exporting to .obj? I don't have much experience with Sketchup but I've managed to get things from Blender and 3DS Max into Vue ok

Okay, I'm trying to figure out how I can see what's wrong with the UV mapping; but in the mean time I found out something else:

There are certain parts that DO show the texture correctly, and others don't. Now: here's an image from blender that shows the material/texture (is there a difference between them?) The one above has 2 materials/textures, and displays correctly; and the one bellow has one texture and doesn't display correctly.

Any idea on how to fix that?

it could be the materials are a bit wonky - have you tried asking over at Cornucopia3d? There is a forum there for Sketchup I think
