If you use SketchUp for the purpose of architectural design, you will need for sure some of these plugins: Renderingġ. So we find plugins that expand SketchUp functionality into this field. But its simplicity is also a limiting factor in architectural design. ![]() I am curious as to the status of that plugin/project.Because of its simplicity, SketchUp is used in many fields especially architecture. I also kind of took my focus off the wall plugin once I heard that John Brock was getting ready to release his new wall plugin that would replace the housebuilder plugin. I’ve looked into PlusSpec and I think it is a solid platform but my own personal use of it would not justify the licensing costs, but for serious designer or architect this is probably the most attractive option in my opinion. To be perfectly honest I would like to make my plugins available completely free of charge but I also need to somehow justify all of the time and effort I spend at developing them.įor wall framing I still use the Housebuilder plugin myself, but I agree that it has certain limitations and has a lot to be desired in the way of extra features and functionality. Currently there is only the Truss and Foundation Plugins available on my site, I apologize that I haven’t had much movement or progress on the wall plugin, I’ve been too busy with the Truss Plugin and haven’t been able to squeeze in enough programming time to bust it out. ![]()
