“What a great program. Fantastic rendering results. looking forward to getting on board with this for exterior reno work”

“So here it is. Renders were done in iRender NXT and are as yet basic. …IRender is able to handle this 81MB beast, which is more than can be said of Vray… exporting 2D images from SU itself is rather more of a problem too… I did these renders in the trial version of IRender, which runs out in 6 days, so I’m now considering buying it. It does have good RPC plant options that I’d love to experiment with! … Here’s another render. I love this feature of IRender, it actually does true orthogonal renders.”
“It (IRender nXt Cloud Rendering Service) has definitely added value to our business in terms of the amount of designs we can turnaround simultaneously. It is also great to use when travelling as everything is cloud based.”
“What is remarkable with this is how many high-quality images can be produced in such a short timeframe with IRender SU.”
“..why didn’t I see this before? Sigh… Just bought the new Vray, which is giving me endless trouble. Because I can t(yet?) render with that, I downloaded the iRender demo. It’s excellent! Beautiful results, absolutely on a par with Vray; far more intuitive interface; and some nice environment options too. It renders a big model that makes Vray crash without a glitch, and pretty fast at that. So much for impulse buying. I’m seriously considering getting this anyway.”
“The ability to use different light sources and types of lighting is perfect.”
“I find it easy to apply what I need to get the level of photorealism I want, and the results are spectacular.”
“It is good to work with a company which so quickly and positively responds to its customers’ requests.”
“The ability to adjust the light levels for the different channels in real time makes adjusting a rendering easy.”
“I love your software and our students create fantastic renderings”
“Our office has appreciated your company support and quite honestly have continued to enjoy the ease of use of your software especially within the AutoCAD Architecture environment / thanks for your continued tech support and providing a simple to use render package to help convey designs to our clients.”
“I was impressed with the ease of integrating ArielVision into SketchUp and being able to produce the first rendering quickly.”
“It (nXtRender for AuotCAD) is a great program, and a far sight quicker to setup than AutoCad render.”
“…and love, love, your program (nXtRender for AutoCAD) – am very happy that I have upgraded.”
“I am a biomedical engineering graduate student and new to 3D modeling and rendering. I made a model in SketchUp for a scientific paper but it felt like it was missing something. I wanted to give it a little more “wow” factor. That’s when I stumbled upon your software package. Using your tutorials I was able to get off the ground quickly and make an amazing rendered image for the paper. Thanks for a great product.”
“I was thrilled to find this program (IRender nXt) that I found affordable as well as easy to learn how to use.”
“Very impressed with the software (IRender nXt), thanks!“
“I fully expected to consign IRender to the deeper recesses of my ‘C’ drive. What I did not expect, was the level of enthusiasm I have come away with from this first project. I now want to learn all I can about SU and IR. I have produced a reasonable render for my client. Yes there are things I have done which I am not sure how they worked out as they have and will probably not work the same way with my next model.
It has been a long time since I downloaded a piece of software which not only worked out of the box, but filled me with an enthusiasm, which has been missing for a long time.”
“Magical – if images like this do not sell a scheme nothing will!”
“I bought a license of one year through my professional high school, it works very well.”
RpTools’ functions are easy to learn and use alongside SketchUp’s functions. You’ll be up and running in no time making the most of the additional controls you have at your fingertips. Extend SketchUp’s capabilities and be more productive with RpTools.
- Components – Move, Copy, Rotate, Mirror, Stretch, Aim

- Materials – Select, Edit, Place
- 2D Plotting– edge line colors and thickness, 2D Text
- Rooms– create a room for quick placement of components
- Shapes– create render friendly standard 3D shapes.
- Non-photorealistic – apply non-Photorealistic rendering effects.
Use our range of Component Wizards to quickly manipulate components in your model.
- Move Wizard – precisely move a component along an axis

- Copy Wizard – create a copy of a component and place
- Mirror Wizard – mirror a component around an axis
- Rotate Wizard – rotate a component using different anchor points
- Stretch Wizard – stretch a component
- Aim Component – aim or point a component
- Select / Place Component – select components from your libraries, view, spin, and orbit, and rotate during placement
Place Material uses an Explorer type tree to select materials and place them directly on faces without having to open components and groups for edit.
The tool “drills” into the model to determine which face, (or component or
group), to change to place the material.
Non-photorealistic tools enable you to quickly create non-photorealistic effects that help your designs standout with prospects and clients.
- Soft and Sketchy Shadows – create images from SketchUp with soft shadows from the sun. Create sketchy shadows by applying a texture pattern on a soft shadow.
- Sketchy Textures – create your own sketchy textures to be used with SketchUp or Sketchy Shadows.
- Soft Edges – saves an image of your model with colored, transparent or softer edges.
- Crayon Colors – select from 132 Crayola® colors to achieve a crayon look.
- Save Model as Image – saves special images such as edges only or shadows only for you to combine in a paint program like Photoshop for special effects.
- Tileable Texture – make any image or pattern tileable or repeatable for use as a SketchUp material.
Proxy Components & Other Functions – More tools to extend SketchUp’s capabilities and enhance your creativity and productivity
- Shapes Wizard – create simple render friendly shapes such as bottles and cylinders
- Alpha Channel – add an alpha channel to a raster image
- Alpha Images – save image as an alpha image
- 2D Text – create 2D renderable text components
- Polyline – draw lines without turning then into faces where they meet
- PDF Plot – plot and print plans and elevations using pen widths and color assigned to edge line
- Room Wizard – quickly create a room as a group and place components
