Crashes SU 2026 with new graphic engine Mac

Hi, Sketchup

Lot of crashes with new graphic engine and M3 Max GPU.

So I have to use “old graphic engine”.. pity..

MacBook Pro M3 Max

OS 15.7.2 (24G325) Sequoia

Sketchup 26.0.428

Thea render 4.5

as usual,

when it crashes, do you send the bugsplat reports ? if so, can you share one (or more) bugsplat numbers ? it could be cause by many things and with luck, most of the causes could be solvable.

Bonjour, merci pour votre réponse

The crash numbers aren’t always the same. I just tested with the M3max GPU, a Thea render test which worked, then various scenes switching operations for 1 minute and: crash 5946.

I generally send the report

I copied several crashes reports into RTF files but I don’t know if it’s useful to post them on the forum

@colin , when he’s around, can tell you what step made it crash. You’ll get a different number on every crash, even if it’s the same reason :slight_smile:

Opening a file, cropping the model, creating a scene…boom! 5965
Second attempt, same result: 5966

I was investigating a LayOut crash yesterday, that seems to have the same issue as your SketchUp crash. For the LayOut one it looks like the problem is something to with section cut patterns, and would happen with LayOut 2024 and later. There are more pattern import features in SketchUp 2026 than before, maybe that’s important.

Do you have a small example model I can look at? Do you import DWG, including patterns?

I do see your 13 SketchUp bugsplats, and two LayOut bugsplats. Thanks for sending those in.

By the way, the crash only happens with the new graphics engine. You could go into Settings, Graphics, and choose the classic graphics engine, and then not get any crashing.
