You can use standard SketchUp materials as well higher resolution textures from a variety of libraries as well as Podium Browser content. When rendered these properties bring the model to life by reflecting light and the environment. Reflections, refractions, bump maps and other advanced properties can be applied to a specific SketchUp material. SU Podium can turn these plain textures into realistic materials quickly and intuitively via the Podium material user interface.


Realistic Materials: An essential part of creating SketchUp models is applying textures to faces. Earlier SketchUp version users will need to install SU Podium V2.5, which is backward compatible to SketchUp 2014.

SU Podium V2.6 employs advanced rendering technology but sticks to it's original intention: To make photo-realistic rendering for SketchUp an easy and rewarding task. SU Podium V2.6 is a photorealistic rendering plug-in for SketchUp developed to turn your SketchUp model into a photo-real image with realistic lighting, material properties, reflection, and refraction.
