Alert Popup window

[DCHA34]

Hi,
Would it be possible to have an alert window when opening a Sketchup file in the following cases:
- missing texture files
- missing .vrmesh or .vrscene files

Thank you.

Hi DCHA34,

- missing texture files
- missing .vrmesh or .vrscene files

Both are more or less the same and we can certainly detect missing files and react to it.
However I have some concerns:

1. When a .skp is loaded, V-Ray is not automatically activated. We can only show an alert when you first interact with V-Ray...
2. Some files are replaced by the SU bitmap buffers in case they are missing. Should we alert in this case?
3. Checking file paths can be very slow if a network location is in play. This is not something we can optimize, it's on the OS (Windows / macOS) side. Are you willing to wait for the check to complete?
4. A way for this behavior to be disabled should be implemented.

Indeed, I think it would be great.
