NextLimit Maxwell 5 version 5.0.2 for SketchUp | 713 MB
The Next Limit development team is pleased to announce the availability of Maxwell 5 version 5.0.2 for SketchUp. This product has been designed for rendering in SketchUp with a Maxwell toolbar. It brings you advanced Maxwell Render technology in a simple package.
COMPATIBILITY:
– Built for Maxwell Render version 5.0.2.21
– Added support for SketchUp 2020
IMPROVEMENTS:
– Added Check for Updates functionality.
– Added the check for updates option, Cloud Render and some missing light entities in the Maxwell menu.
– Now, when a new light object is created from the toolbar, the Scene Manager opens in the Materials tab so you can modify its properties.
– Now the instances of the Maxwell lights components (when dragging from the components list) also have the same emitter material applied and they actually work as instances (changes in their material affect all the instances).
FIXES:
– Fire now stops instead of restarting when the scene is exported to Maxwell, Studio, Cloud, Network or to a file.
– Importing assets from the 3D warehouse could crash SketchUp when the plugin was installed; in most of the cases this will work fine now but the fix is not 100% error-free (In any case, Trimble suggests the following: "Generally it is advisable to download components from the Warehouse into a separate blank file before you add them to your main project file. That gives you an opportunity to examine them to make sure they are OK. Also, you can get rid of unneeded geometry, materials, and layers before adding all that stuff to your main file." You can do this from Window > Model Info > Statistics > Purge Unused and Fix Problems. If it still crashes with Maxwell extension active, you can disable it, import and purge, save the file and import in the main scene; then it will work in Maxwell.
– The plugin on Mac added one extra black material to the material list when adding the first Maxwell light from the toolbar.
– The DOF tool didn’t update fstop or shutter camera values.

Next Limit was founded in 1998 by engineers Victor Gonzalez and Ignacio Vargas with a common vision of developing cutting edge simulation tecnologies. RealFlow was the first product released. In the following years new products came to life, such as: Maxwell Render, CaronteFX and XFlow CFD. In 2018 Victor Gonzalez became the sole owner of the group, expanding the company portfolio toward new markets and industries. Since then the portfolio has been updated with three new solutions: Anyverse, BeGraph and RoomBox.
