        What does it zip down to ? OBJ files are very compressible...
        I'd try the range of metric from mm to cm and m.
        Some very complex meshes won't import but most do...

          Am I reading that this Plugin works with any version of Sketchup, free or Pro?

          I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.

            Should be no difference with either version...

                      I have the file and am looking at it now - It does have almost 1.1 million edges !!!
                      No texture-images just materials in the mtl...

                            Well... after along time processing it the importer produced no geometry and no console warnings.
                            I also tried importing it into Blender... and that failed with an 'out of range error message', so there's something adrift in the obj file's geometry...
                            Seems your obj file has at least one problem that's giving at least two separate importers hiccups...

                                  Sorry guys.. I don't want to spam this topic but I'd be very glad if someone could explain how to import correctly-mapped Xfrog trees into sketchy... 😳
                                  Sorry TIG if I go a little off-topic: I've stumbled on your topic because I am very interested in your plugin: you did a good work. A big thank you.

                                      You write a better plugin then... it's a free country/world...

                                        Are you implying it's not working for you?

                                          You're lack of details is astounding.....How about some useful information about what the plugin is or isn't doing? And maybe a test file that it fails on?
