      I thought about the resize idea.. the only problem there is exporting back the completed assemblies to tS.. but I can work round that if I have to..

      I've tried all the templates I have and it's the same with all of them.
      the scripts I'm using are

      both are giving me the same results.. a 78x78x78inch cube is appearing as a 2x2x2inch cube in Sketchup (same with non cubes - all objects are being affected). position's being scaled as well.

      ironically, exporting is working fine.

      edit - I tried the imports on a 2nd machine with a fresh install of SU. same results 😞

        Which scripts are you using?

        Its worth having a look through them to see if theirs anything obvious that you could change to get them to import properly.

              Give this a go, no guarantees it will work.

                do you accept beer, whiskey or general worship?

                worked like a charm!

                          Link Preview Image

                          my on going TARDIS project..
                          modeled and rendered in trueSpace 4.3.. until I got stuck doing the pipes. but with Jim's Importer and your Fix Remus, I can use SU's lovely abilities to just snap pipe sections together to carry on...
