I exported this once without issue, but now every time I try I get this overcast shadow over everything with the occasional flash of light. Why is it doing this? Any help appreciated.

Post the model (drag it to the reply window) or use Dropbox / similar so someone could see how it is setup.
Does it work properly when you click from scene to scene?
yeah it works fine in the model. trying to upload, it’s too large for the 16mb limit
Upload it to DropBox or WeTransfer and share the link.
Switch to the Classic Graphics Engine in Settings>Graphics under the SketchUp menu left of File. Quit and restart SketchUp and try your export again.
FWIW, it wouldn’t hurt to clean up the model. I fixed incorrect tag usage,
Purged unused stuff.
And reduced the size of the excessively huge textures. There’s no point in having such large texture images. They bloat the file but since SketchUp won’t display them at such high resolution the bloat is all liability without being an asset.
That simple bit of cleanup reduced file size by about 76%.
Success! Thanks so much.
You’re quite welcome.
I’m having the same issue. However I’m trying to export with ambient occlusion turned on. is it even possible? (btw the advise above also worked for me but then I can’t use the AO).
Also I noticed that if I export with 480p quality everything is working fine, including the AO.
There have been no updates to SketchUp 2024 to rectify the issues with animation exports.
Thank you Dave, I had the same problem and this resolved it to.
