I can think of a few ways to build this arch in CGA but I would say having a simple 3D asset you can bring in with an i() operation would be way easier to fit into place. ... View more

Emma - I'll echo what @JonasObertuefer said - there is no single "right" way to tackle this. I built out an AR app this summer with a similar approach to what he is describing - its available on Apple's App Store if you want to check it out (HL AR Maps). Its not geo enabled but it could be.  Do you need a 3D model of the building, or simply a popup triggered by their location, what the camera is seeing, or a combination of both? Feel free to reach out to me directly if you need some assistance.  Devin   ... View more

Yes. Very easy to import and incorporate FBX files. ... View more

You could solve this a few different ways. I would run an analysis of distance from each person to each park. Then sum the distance totals by park. The park with the lowest total distance is technically "closest" to everyone, but still may be furthest away for one of your friends.  I was thinking another method would be similar except instead of distance you rank the parks for each person based on distance and then average the ranks. I think the results would be the same, but in this approach you could remove the farthest and closest parks from everyone's ranking - so its not too convenient or too far for one of your friends. This approach does have the potential to eliminate all the parks. ... View more

Would like to echo the need for a displacement map. While I understand CityEngine cannot support it the OP's comment about having that available downstream in another program would be very helpful. ... View more

There's talk about improving the overall rendering capabilities within CityEngine so maybe that will help. Otherwise I don't see how you could live link. The Unreal Datasmith is pretty close though - two clicks of a button. ... View more

The best luck I've had working with Sketchup models is exporting as KMZ files. It ends up being a DAE also but you should see the textures. Give that a try and report back. ... View more
