Indigo Renderer Free For Sketchup Make
I'm pretty new to Sketchup, but I'm popping out simple models anyway. I'm becoming frustrated with the lighting for interior models. Is there any way to create artificial lighting sources?

Daylight/sunlight is just not cutting it in a model that has floor, walls and ceiling. Also, pertaining to lighting, when I do export 2D images from a model that has been lit using 'sunlight', I get odd lighting flares and color reflections. Is there a whole lighting menu that I'm just missing repeatedly? It seems that there must be a better way to control lighting on interior models. Thanks in advance for any and all help! Ama, What Jim says is that there are no artificial light sources in SU - you have to do everything with the sun. It means that when there are interiors, the best is to turn shadows off and this way the interior will be much and evenly lighter.
There are the external renderer plugins (see Jim's post) with the help of which you can get interior lights and much more photorealistic images (or even animation) with reflections and such things. But those are other programs and the best is too get info from their forums. LaserSafetySystems 10:19. I have been using the Skindigo ruby script for the (amazingly free) Indigo renderer the past two days.
When you download the Skindigo, you get a sample sketchup scene that has some artificial lights in it. I don't know how they were created, but they definitely work.
I find that I can copy/paste the lights and aim them at various angles at objects that I import into the scene. My resulting indigo renderings are quite impressive, at least from my point of view.
I have a couple posted at The door and laser table photos are sketchup renderings that have been processed with Indigo. John Al Hart 11:07.
