The Latest Tips to Speed ​​Up and Lighten Sketchup - Part 1

Basically Sketchup is a 3D software that is relatively lightweight, in my opinion even one of the lightest 3D software for now. With spekPC dual core with 2GB of RAM you can already run this software. And this is one of the reasons I use Sketchup as one of my main 3D software.

However, problems will occur if we open or work on 3D with complex modeling with a large amount of poly. And when using this software, we will unknowingly know that our Sketchup file size is above 200MB.

If this is the case, it will greatly disrupt our modeling or rendering process, a number of things can happen if the file size is too large;

1. Sketchup experiences Crash Dump
2. Loading Sketchup becomes very long / Sketchup becomes slow
3. The PC will get hotter
4. Sketchup experiences not responding when we save

And maybe there is still a lot more that can happen, because only a few things above I've ever experienced (as I recall).

But take it easy, don't be confused. Because there are several ways to speed up and lighten the work of Skecthup. Starting from the basic sketchup settings that are useful for long-term use of Sketchup, to overcome this problem when it has already happened. Below are a few tips to make our Sketchup lighter.

Download Ambient Occlusion Style 1.0

Ambient Occlusion Style 1.0 is the newest paid sketchup plugin that is available in extension warehouse. This plugin is developed by Rafael Rivera.

This sketchup plugin is compatible with SketchUp 2016, SketchUp 2017, SketchUp 2018.

This sketchup plugin can be applied to create fake ambient occlusion in SketchUp with various colors for concave and convex edges which are adjusted in the material editor. By default, the concave material is dark to create the edge look like a shadow and the convex edges are painted white to provide a highlight effect.

Once the tool is operated all the convex edges are concealed but another tool button is arranged to simply switch concealed geometry on and off so as to unhide the convex edges as per your requirement.

Besides, three pages are built with various edge widths in order that your favorite can be selected easily.

This sketchup extension is available in extension warehouse with free trial version.

Go through the following video tutorial to learn the functionality of the plugin.
