Valve's SketchUp Plugins

http://www.nacimota.com

This video covers the use of valve's new VMF export plugin for SketchUp, available as part of the Left 4 Dead Authoring Tools suite.

It has been pointed out to me that these plugins are now available as part of the regular SDK, but a lot of people cant seem to find them, so here they are:

How do u get the moving water wallpaper?

[Nacimota]

It's a feature of Windows Vista Ultimate

What exactly are the benefits/cons of using sketch-up over hammer? I'm very comfortable with hammer but sketch-up looks kind of interesting..

Also where did you get that wallpaper? :p

[Nacimota]

It's really more for the benefit of SketchUp users who are not yet fully accustomed to Hammer.

The wallpaper was bundled with my copy of Vista Ultimate; I'm on windows 7 now
