Parts

[PhatZilla]

I was considering trying to make some parts but have very little 3d modeling experience. Recently I was messing around in Sketch Up and found it to be pretty friendly. Is it possible to make KSP parts in Sketch Up? I looked in the forum for a tutorial but didn't find what I was looking for. I was hoping for some kind of tutorial.

From what Im told you can import from sketchup into Unity, but its a real hassle, not worth it. Your better of picking up Blender if you want to get into KSP part making

Appearently Bac9 prefers Sketchup and uses it, and obviously he can get them into KSP

Didn't say it was impossible, but a hassle and not really worth it for someone just getting into modelling. You have to do ALOT of extra stuff to a sketchup model both there and in Unity for it to work.

Not an issue for someone like Bac9, who is a pro and been modelling awhile. More of an issue for someone just starting out.

Do yourself a favor PhatZilla, learn Blender for KSP part, decent tutorials around here, great ones at CGcookie
