This is our current progress in the 2D Module. You are able to let SketchUp build up walls out of edges and export them into a text file in the SketchUp working directory. The script is “Copy & Pasted” into Second Life. Now you only need to touch the “Builder” and it will build the ground plan to walls. It is a prototype to test the technologies we like to use. Here are the pictures:

In the context of our studies we are developing a Google SketchUp to Second Life exporter called SUSL, which should be capable of exporting buildings and objects out of 2D CAD data and 3D SketchUp data into the Second Life environment. We are supported by Queo and the Dresden University of Technology where we pursue our studies. After having completed the thesis it is our intention to make this small project Open Source, so that others are able to enhance the work we have started. We like to present our current process on the SUSL-Project in this Blog.

So if you are interested please coment on it.
