The .blend files of 2.80 don't work dought to changes in the API, try with .blend files of Blender 2.79, for me these work fine.

Samuel , really the Model height (cm) option do something, I changed this parameter to different values but the imported model has the same dimensions always.

Hi Oxer! This feature works pretty well on Windows. I don't know why it doesn't work at all on macOS.

This Blender is not supported. Export to .fbx or, as suggested by @Oxer, retry with Blender 2.79.

1.1.4 version fixes rendering of some high-density models (typically trees).

Download latest Universal Importer plugin from SketchUcation PluginStore.

In the image the height issue on Mac.

Hello man, thanks in advance for the app.
But every time I try to import an FBX, messages like that appear.

"WrogramData"?

Does it actually say "WrogramData" instead of "ProgramData"?

Hello. Reinstall Microsoft Visual C++ library (it can fix your error) then let me know if problem persists.

Hello. Importer Error. What does that mean

Maybe this has been asked, I tried to search it just in case, so apologies if it has been answered already... Is there any plan to support PDF in the future? Lack of PDF import to Windows Sketchup boggles my mind.

[samuel_t]

Hello @kostiaarh. This sounds like a bug. Could you please upload your model to a file hoster? This way I could debug it.

There's no plan to support PDF in future.

Problem comes from model encoding. I've manually fixed "222.obj" and "222.obj.mtl" with a text editor.

I've attached fixed model:

222-fixed-model.zip

Hi. What version of macOS are you running?

Would it be possible to implement support for TGA format of textures? You can often download models textured with TGA files.

Yes. It's possible.
