All language subtitles for 613241-49 - Textures libraries - The definitive SKETCHUP course. From beginner to expert.en-US

Hello guys, and we'll go
to this new class inward.

We're going to see the three
best texture libraries

on the Internet, in my opinion.

So we will continue

working on this model
with these cubes.

And the thing is that we

have to be aware
of the fact that

the SketchUp library of
materials is not very,

very, let's say sophisticated.

The textures are quite simple.

I mean, if I expand this arrow,

here, we have e.g.

metals and then look at

how many methods we
have, not so many.

And the textures, the quality
of the textures is not,

let's say, the best
possible ever.

So if we want to acquire a very,

very good ones, then we

should have them
from the Internet.

The first website I would like
you to go is ROA textures.

You can check here the address.

Anyways, you will find the
links in the description.

And the thing about
this website is

that this is a
construction website.

I mean, it is not about

3D models or rendering,
is about construction.

So the texture
that you will find

here is something
super, super real.

They give us that
texture in order to have

a real view about that
material before buying it.

So we should go over
texture browser,

one-click, we accept and
continue the cookies and so on.

And here we can
filter our searching.

We can say e.g. material
we want, let's say good.

Then different goods pop up.

Let's click this narrow boards.

It looks like the price is €4,

but we will be able to take
this texture for free.

Look that we have a
view of that texture

already applied on the
floor, on different walls.

Then here we have the size,

the real size, the resolution.

And if we go down,

we will find here
the possibility to

download this texture for free.

Just one click on Download

will get a compressed
file. Inside.

We will find always
three the apex files,

one with the letter B,

another one with the letter D,

and another one with the letter

S. This is because all
the materials here are,

the textures are what is
called PBR materials.

A PVR material means
physical based rendering.

They are materials based on

different maps in
order to describe

a photorealistic aspect
of that material

physically and in terms of
interaction with the light,

which is something very complex.

So we have here three
months bump map,

letter B, diffuse map,

letter D, and specular map,

letter S. Bump map is talking

about the relief of the texture,

the defuses about the color,

and the specular is
about the reflection.

This is something unrelated
more with renders

than with SketchUp in where
we are doing 3D models,

we have not rendering.

So here we are just interested

in using the diffuse
map letter D.

But you better know that
if you afterwards want

to work in render software
as we re or lumen,

thanks to this website,

you already have the bump,

map and spec requirement.

So once that we are
back again in SketchUp,

if we want to use that texture,

we should go over materials,

click on Default material,

then click on Create
material from zero.

Let's type in the name of
this new material, e.g.

new. Good.

We use a texture
image. One-click here.

We need to go over
the correct folder.

And once here, just pick up

the image with the letter
D, one click Open.

The texture is already loaded.

And pay attention
here because normally

we don't know the
dimension of the texture.

But if we check our material
in the website here,

we can find the real
size of this material,

400 cm per 180 cm.

Coming back to a SketchUp,

we can type in 4 m and then

the proportion comes
automatically 1.80 m.

And then let's just apply
these new material, e.g.

on this first queue.

Click here.

And here we have.

Our excellent texture,
three clicks, letter B.

Here we have our cube
with that wood texture.

Second website that
I would like to show

you is called texture.com.

The browser here
is very intuitive.

We can write here e.g.

a. Stone, enter.

And we'll find these
different textures.

We need just to click
on one of them.

Imagine that we like,

let's say this Stonewall,

one click, we have a preview.

And then again, this will give

us three maps of that texture.

Map, the high map
and the normal map.

Again, we're talking about

PBR materials, physical
based rendering.

The Albedo map is as
the diffuse map before.

It is the same but
with a different name.

This is the one
important in SketchUp.

In SketchUp, we can just
work with the colormap,

the diffuse map or
the Albedo map.

All of them are the same.

The high map and the
normal map will be

useful in case that
after a SketchUp,

we want to work in a
rendering software,

you better know that
I have a course

about lumen in where I

talk deeper about how to
use all of these maps.

Anyways, here we
have a free texture.

I think that we can download

three or five textures
free per day.

Anyways, if you want to
use this website a lot,

you can pay the subscription
is not expensive at all,

but in this case,

I will just click on here.

The lowest resolution is enough.

One click.

And you can see that
I have this texture,

this Albedo texture already in

my computer and ready to be
used once in SketchUp again,

we should repeat the
same process as before.

Default material,
create new material.

Let's type in a new name,

new stone wall texture image.

Then we select our image,
One-click and open.

And here we don't have the
correct size of that texture,

so the material is already
created, unselected.

So I would apply the
material here, three clicks.

Letter b. Again, we have

the problem that the texture
is very, very small.

We go over edit.

Let's change the
size more or less.

Here is, okay, it's up to you.

We are done with this material.

Finally, the third website

that I would like
to recommend you,

and in my opinion,

the best one of all of them is

called a SketchUp
texture club.com.

Here you will find not just
textures, but 3D models.

You will be able to read

about many news
related with SketchUp,

tips, advices, and so on.

Anyways, we have to focus
now about the textures.

So we should click
on here textures,

we will find different
categories, free PVR textures.

We know already what PVR

means, physically-based
rendering textures.

And then we have
architecture materials,

nature, elements,
backgrounds, and landscapes.

If I expand e.g.

architecture, you can see

how many different
categories we have here.

Let's click on concrete.

Then we have two different
more options where I'm plates,

plates, and then we find clean,

dirty that are handled.

Let's click on that arrow.

And as you may be already know,

is a Japanese architect,

very famous, and he lights a
lot to work with concrete.

Let's click e.g. on this one.

And then we find
here a preview and

two options for
downloading this texture.

An option for a free user and

another option for
a club member user.

In case that you are
a club member user,

you will find in your
folder more maps,

the displacements,
specular, normal,

ambient occlusion, and so on.

If you are going to use a
lot of SketchUp rendering,

where I really recommend

you to subscribe
to this website.

The price is super tip.

If I am not wrong,

it is around €12 per year.

And then you can download

endless amount of super
amazing textures.

I am a member, so I will
download this folder.

One-click again, we will
get a compressed file and

inside we will find

a demo and different
maps as the diffusion,

the displacement,
the normal specular,

and the ambient occlusion
month in SketchUp,

remember that we can only
use the diffusion map.

It is called as well
a map or colormap.

So then again, go
back to sketch out.

We reset our material,

we click on Create material,

we select a new texture.

We'll go over the
correct folder and

we choose the diffuse image.

Click on Open.

Here we have the
texture already loaded.

We don't know the
measures because

if we go back to this website,

this information is about the
resolution of the texture.

Of course, the
resolution will be

better if we are a member.

So we say, okay,

let's apply this texture
on this surface.

I select the entire
cue that are b.

And now let's change the
size of the texture.

1 m or even 2 m
could be correct.

One click outside,
and here we are.

Look the resolution and

the details that we find
here in this picture.

So time to say goodbye.

I hope that you liked the class.

Don't hesitate to leave

a comment in case that
you have ended up.

In the next episode,

we'll talk about
unspecific dusk,

how to create a landscape in

SketchUp through our
projected texture.
