Building a House
« on: March 29, 2010, 06:25:04 pm »

Hi, everyone. I'm working on an Anim8or webshow, and need to know how to construct a nice, clean EDIT: Exterior of a home. I would've used SketchUp 7, but the free version doesn't support .3ds export, and I haven't found a loop hole. Any suggestions?

My only possible Save As options:
SketchUp Models
SketchUp 6
SketchUp 5
SketchUp 4
SketchUp 3

What do I do?

Houses are easy, once you get the hang of it. if I find time I might make my own tutorial for buildings.
