They must have a problem with their servers ?

Does anyone have a copy they could send to 'function' by PM ?

Hey guys,
Quickly edited this plugin to also convert the layer colors, instead of assigning a random color per material.

Very useful ! Thanks

Update to also convert the layer color.

just wanted to thank Didier Bur for creating a great plugin, Al Hart for keeping it updated & gparadis for the finishing touch of recreating the layer colour on the material.
The only thing missing is that a texture assigned to a layer colour is not carried over, but that's a minor quibble.

Didier's site http://rhin.crai.archi.fr/rld seems to be down at the moment, by the way.

Didier announced that he will no longer teach SketchUp nor will he develop new extensions or maintain any of his existing extensions. That's probably why his site is down then.

I'm not surprised, Trimble seem to be out of touch with SketchUP's core customers.
Didiers site & plugins were a revelation when I started out with SketchUP as a way to increase my productivity with the tool. It was a great service to the community.
