Maybe they should think about investing in a microphone...

SketchUp would make a really good design engine for Minecraft. Adding support probably wouldn't be too difficult and I am sure Mojang would be happy to support a joint venture.

Sketch up rocks!

Sketchup is great but google you charge way to much for the pro version! Isnt there like a program where students can get it for free? There really should be a way of students to get this program without forking out a fourtune!

[drake1636]

why would anyone use sketchup instead of blender or a real cad program?

[CityKid206]

@Smilingiskool Well if you do ever find yourself interested in the program just look it up it's a good program. Good luck with your ed classes

@CityKid206 @CityKid206 I hadn't so I looked it up, and they're both owned by Autodesk! I would probably look more into Revit, but I don't think I'm going to major in design. (I'm in high school taking continuing ed classes.)
