      It would help if you could try to import the file while the Ruby Console window is open, and then post any errors here.

            Yes - the newest version. Feel free to ask more questions. I'd be glad to see the plugin working. For now I stick with TIG's obj importer.

              BTW it seems that a cmd window blinks for a fraction of a second and does nothing.

                smicha, will it make one if the original is on your desktop?

                    Two things to try:

                    1. Try double-clicking the a2s.exe from Windows file explorer.

                    2. Open a command prompt in the "win" folder and try to run a2s.exe, and maybe try to convert a file - something like:

                    
                    > .\a2s "C;\users\YOU\Downloads\test.stl"
                    
                    

                    Are there any errors or dialogs?

                    Hi

                      I'm running into the same issues as Smicha. I'm trying to import a DWG file because the SketchUp import is taking so freaking long. However I have the Ruby console pulled up and then when I select the DWG a window pops up and then disappears. The first time it created a notepad file that said "No Suitable Reader Found"

                      Any ideas?

                        the reason I removed the pointer on the thread was I remembered it was hard to set up on a PC...

                        If you have a mac in the office, this extension is still working in v17...

                          Hey Driven,

                          I pulled this up on my laptop and ran into the same issue. I'm running SketchUp 17 and the plugin didn't do anything. Am I missing anything?

                          T.

                              I just re-tested on some dxf's...

                              some work others don't...

                              do your files open in tiegra viewer or converter?

                              maybe converting them back to a lower version will work...
