[Plugin] Universal Importer - v1.2.6 - 30 July 2024

Samuel
Seems like a great plug-in, thanks for sharing this!
We have an fbx we are trying to bring in but we are not sure how to get it to be placed exactly where we want it and at the right scale. I think we could find the right scale factor to get it right but unfortunately I can not type in an accurate enough number (only integers allowed) into the dialogue box.
Is there a better way or different way we could have our model drop in more accurately?
Kind Regards,

Greg HamiltonHello, There's no solution for the moment. Maybe I'll publish a more accurate plugin version in the future. Best regards.

Your software is very useful!! Thanks a million!! BTW, I don't know if you have thought of adding an function that it can import OSGB file format, it would be cool!!
Merry Christmas!!!!!!

I'm trying to import an OBJ. I want to keep the existing model scale but the plugin keeps asking for the height of the model. Is there a way to ignore that?
Hello. You can't ignore that.
I would like to add this feature"cancel /height of the model/ will keep the existing model scale"although I can do it the other way around:
SU toolbar--Windows--Administration panel--Component--Homepage--Select import component you want-Deploy this component which keep the existing model scale:)Add the feature will be more convenient for me, thanks!

Hello.
It seems you are trying to import an .obj file that references a non-existent .mtl file. Can you please share with us these .obj and .mtl files?

Compatibility with STEP models isn't very good. Unfortunately, I don't have a solution for the moment.

Hello Samuel,
I installed your latest release on sketchupmake2017 and can not use it as it is unsigned, please update your extension with a signed version.
Cheers Mate!

Unsigned does not make it unusable unless you set the loading policy to prevent it.
Please update your profile. It says you are using Sketchup 8.

Thank you for your reply, however, I do I know or turn off this loading policy? So I won't have any issues?? And I have updated my profile, thank you!
Cheers Mate!

I presume you mean, "I do not know how to turn off this loading policy." Is that correct. Go to Window>Extension Manager and click on the gear icon in the upper right corner. Choose Unrestricted for the loading policy. Restart SketchUp.

Hello Samuel/folks,
It appears that I am having the same issue with converting models, I looked at previous posts but still can't make sense of it all; as the file I downloaded from the warehouse was a 2017skp I tried to reduce the size but kept getting the same error messages as above.
I then exported the original skp file to 3ds and tried it again and got the same error message, as it looks like UI is still looking at this file as an obj and not a 3ds import. Is there a video/fix to this ongoing issue or am I just missing something!?
Cheers!

Hello Mike,
Don't mind about OBJ
It's used as intermediate format during process...Could you please provide us the link to the tank you're trying to simplify?
Did you try with other models?
-
Hello Samuel,
Here is the link to the Panther, and no I haven't tried your extension on any other model as of yet as I was immersed in this model at the time of my postings; but I will try it again soon.
Cheers Mate!
