[Dave R]

Click on Upload attachment below the text window and select your SKP file for the SketchUp model you're trying to make the animation of.

How big is this SKP ?
Can you Purge it under Model Info > Statistics, then zip it, and then try to attach the zip file... assuming it is <=4Mb...

[Gorilla_mean_2]

Doesnt show me zip it shows me purge unused and Fix problem? wtf like my computer retarded?

[Dave R]

I don't think it's your computer.

You need a utility to create the ZIP file. It's not part of SketchUp. You can use 7zip. It's free.

Ughh i dont know any of this im only 13? ur like 18-20?

[Dave R]

Yeah. About that old.

Get 7zip here. Go to that page and download the file and install it. If you were able to install SketchUp you can install 7zip.

After it is installed, find the SKP file for your SketchUp model. Right click on its name and choose 7zip>Add to filename.zip where filename is the name of the SketchUp file.

I would suggest you make a simple little model and try animating that. Since your current file is too large to upload here, I would gather it's rather complex. It sounds to me as if you're trying to run a marathon before you've learned to walk. That's a sure way to frustration. Don't make it hard on yourself.

Done i zipped it and it is a bookshelf? and its name is sniper into?
I think that 7zip is winrar

[Gorilla_mean_2]

Mhh still cant export then animation? #profanity removed#

[Gaieus]

Dan, how big is your skp ("SketchUp") file when you save it?

[Dave R]

Good grief!

No! 7zip is not winrar.

Creating the zip file was only intended to make it small enough that it could be uploaded here.
