SketchUp to 3D MAX

manojglobal · 8 Jan 2010, 13:11

I have got Google SketchUp 7 and 3d max, basically i can successfully import the model by saving as a .kmz file, renaming it .zip, opening it in winrar and saving as a .dae file. When i import my model into max again its there but it does not read some of the faces from SketchUp, but i am having difficulties importing my SketchUp model to work on in 3ds max.

Any solutions very welcome…

Thanks in advance

Is it possible the faces are actually there, but they are reversed? If a face is reversed in SU, it will often look like it does not exist in 3dsMax. So check that all faces are oriented correctly before exporting from SU.

there is a new extension for max2010 that could import skp now.
