    -I know that I have posted this, but I don't believe that the title fits anymore for the problem has been solved. (First Post)

    -As we all know Fritzer released his components for Google Sketchup already (Found Here), but like many of you I could not stand the Foundry that was included with the awesome components. I set out to try and work out as accurate of a foundry as i could.

    -NEW! I made the top of foundry a component, so now you van remove it or add it when needed.

    Help Section

    -This model is 13mb and already comes with Fritzer's components so you won't need to import anything. (This model does not have any other components other than Fritzer's though.)

    -This model is best used on faster computers, or the large amounts of information will cause your computer to lag very badly. (I made on an XP, and it took 10 minutes to start up.)

    -If you need help with Google Sketchup go here. (I find the videos to be the most helpful as well as informative.)

    -Any suggestions or other types of questions can be sent to me. I will try to answer them the best that I can and as fast as I can.

    Thank you for releasing this man, i saw something like this in a Advent sketchup and wondering where you got it from. The accuracy looks great as well.

    This is a very important improvement to the forgehub community. It is perfect except for the fact that the roof area could block out sections for layout shots. It is not enough to care though. The textures and more detailed geometry can add to your drafting when planning a map. Think of the possibilities. You could check on your aesthetics in sketchup to make sure everything looks good. Does this component have the back halls. That would be epic.

    All in all thanks to phoenix 9 for the amazing model. Planning those perfect maps should be more than easy now. This thread deserves a cookie.

    Hey guys. I posted a new link to my newer foundry. It gets rid of the problem of not being able to see by replacing the ceiling with a component. This allows you to delete the roof and then easily add it back if you need to.
