      Hi,
      I don't think my last attempt to post was registered.. anyway..

      I have a corrupt skp file (google sketchup pro 😎 of a large file i've been working on for months.
      It used to be 60-70MB, now it is 169.

      It said "this does not appear to be a sketchup model".

      After some thought, I realized the only thing to corrupt it might be the Artlantis DEMO program I have been trying out.
      When I changed its extension from .skp to .atl, I could open it in artlantis and it showed my model in 3D.

      Now I am looking to convert it somehow back to SKP. I hope some info is possible to salvage..

      I tried exporting from Artlantis to DWF or OBG etc. but I cannot seem to get from these
      formats back to SKP...

      Can someone help me out in how to get my model (or some of it) back into sketchup??

      Thank you very very much.

        Can you upload it to send-it or dropbox and share, so maybe someone can figure it out for you.

        If you see a toilet in your dreams do not use it.

            Do you still have the back-up file (.skb extension)? If so, copy it to another folder and change the extension to .skp and see if you can open it in SU.

              Hi,
              Tnx, yeah, I know, I don't have it.
              But - problem solved. I found a working version on an external drive.

              I think in general there is no way to solve this fully if it happens..

              Tnx anyway.
