Parts of the Model just disappear after a sync

D5 Render Version: 3.0.1.0683
Graphics Card: NVIDIA GFORCE RTX 4090
Driver Version: 32.0.15.9174
Issue Description: On a project i finished one week ago, i was asked to add a little detail to my Sketchup model and when i started to live render to make the file autoupdate i went straight to the last renders to restart them and do the update.
When i saw the rendered images i noticed that some parts of my model are missing, i went back to the sketchup, everything is fine, i restarted the live sync, started it again, did the same with D5, with sketchup, everytime now D5 refuse to show some existing geometry.

It did it also on a previous project which was very detailed and heavy so i guessed it was because of how complex was the file and I managed to rework some render another way than with D5. But this time I don’t understand the issue.

Here is an example of some stuff missing like the roofs, some slabs, windows, walls.

Thanks for your help.
Screenshots/Videos Description:

Update while i was writting: back ups are showing all the same missing stuff, even worse they have textures missing. when i sync the latest file again, same thing happens, so i really don’t understand.
Here a gif from my post prod software with the differences between the previous batch and the current of render, you can see all the stuff missing in every renders.

Hi @mehdigrosjean

Thank you for the detailed explanation and the attachments — that was very helpful.

To better understand what may be causing the missing geometry in D5 Render, could you please clarify a few things for us?

  • How large/heavy is the project file (approximate file size)?
  • In D5, does the geometry appear correctly in Preview mode, or is it already missing there as well?
  • Was this file originally created in D5 version 3.0 or an older version before updating to 3.0.1?
  • What version of SketchUp Livesync are you currently using? If you manually import/sync the SKP file, does the same issue occur?

Additionally, could you share the SketchUp file and D5 file with me for testing? If the project is confidential, I completely understand — just let me know.

You may upload it via WeTransfer and send the download link to support@d5techs.com. Please tag me in the email thread and include the link to this forum post for reference.

Looking forward to your reply, and I apologize for the inconvenience caused.

Hello Ela,

  • The sketchup File is 187Mo,
  • In D5 even in preview mode I still have geometry not showing up
  • This file was made with 3.0.1, it is a very recent file but i had this issue at least once before on another project.
  • I also use the latest Sketchup Livesync, everytime there is an update I reinstall the plugin just in case.

on the previous case i had, the file was heavy with lots of textures, objects and people so i assumed i reached a peak and then i managed to stop the work as the file was not usable at all. But this one, the project is still ongoing. I will send you a link asap, thanks.

Hi @mehdigrosjean

Thank you for the detailed explanation. Please let me know once you have sent the email with the project link, and I will check it on my end as soon as possible.

I look forward to your update.
