So what about Twilight Render Version 1? Can I continue to buy it? What if I need a new license? What about my existing SketchUp scenes?
Let's take the time to answer the common questions about migration from version 1 to version 2 of Twilight Render.
Will my Twilight Render V1 scenes work in Twilight Render V2? Yes, they will work. However, the way data is stored in your SketchUp scene by Twilight Render has changed. It will need to be converted.
How do I convert my Twilight Render V1 scenes to Twilight Render V2? The conversion process from V1 to V2 is done automatically for you when you open your SketchUp scene. A popup will ask you if you want to convert your scene to Twilight Render V2. If you want to convert the V1 settings to V2, click Yes. Once you open a SketchUp scene with V2 installed, if you save that scene, you will not be automatically prompted to convert that scene to V2 again. However, you can always, at any time, convert the V1 data in a scene to V2 by clicking on the Plugins Menu, selecting Twilight V2 -> ReConvert 1.x to 2.x. Your V1 data will be converted to V2. It's important to remember though, that any V2 settings you have made to your scene up to that point will get overwritten!
Will my Twilight Render V1 license work for Twilight Render V2? No, Twilight Render V2 is a completely new product line. Your V1 license does not give you access to V2. You can purchase a license for Version 2 from our online store.
