@BGUERRE Hello,

You're welcome!

Seems there's an issue in .MTL file paired with .OBJ file.
Can you please upload them and send me both (in private if you prefer)?

Hi, Just found your Universal plugin today, I've been wanting something like that for a long time!! It seem to work fine for me exporting dxf files from lightburn except that anything that is a curve is chopped up into dashed lines. Squares come in fine but circles or curves get the dash effect. Any thoughts? Thanks

hello! and thank you for the great plug in! I am trying to import an obj file of this bed in sketchup.
link text

I select the option to claim missing textures and select the obj file. In which order do I select the textures?

The model has a diffuse map, two normal maps and a displacement map. If I select the diffuse map and the two normal maps, I get an error..

Any ideas?

[panixia]

@artemisglt You just select the diffuse map and call it a day.
(you can add the other maps after the import if you really need them)

[artemisglt]

@panixia if i press claim missing textures, then import the obj object, I select the diffuse map and then it asks me to select again another missing texture. if i click the normal map, it asks me for a third texture and if select all three I receive an error. if i select the diffuse map every time again I receive an error.. any ideas?

[panixia]

@artemisglt does it happen with a specific model or with all models?

[artemisglt]

@panixia it happens with all the models, that is why I asked to see what I am doing wrong. I send the link to the initial model, I referred to, if you can have a look.

Hello, thank you for the community plugin, but I'm getting this error message when I try to import. It looks like you had someone else with a similar error about a year ago. Any solution?

[samuel_t]

@mblally Hello. You're welcome! This issue will be fixed in the next plugin version.

[sashapepperspray]

when will that update be? any estimates?

[samuel_t]

@sashapepperspray Most probably today or tomorrow.

What's new?

• CAD hierarchy can be preserved. This option is enabled by default; you can turn it off in the plugin menu.
  Below is a STEP file imported with this option enabled.

• The CAD files import on Mac. Here's another STEP file imported on macOS Golden Gate (27).

• IGES colors are imported, thanks to OpenCascade and Mayo.

• Thanks to Assimp contributors, you shouldn't see anymore these errors:

  Failed to load [3MF] file: At least one mesh must be there
  Failed to load file: GLTF: Draco mesh compression not supported
  

• 3MF models with textures are supported. Note however texture mapping issues may occur.

• A "Soften Coplanar Faces" option is available. Enabled by default; it can be turned off in the plugin menu.

• You can import a model from the root of a drive where your documents are stored, thanks to the contribution of Eegee.

Hello Samuel
It's only an Importer for SketchUp or it can be used as a Standalone for any Progs as a converter ?
(Il vaut mieux s'adresser au bon dieu, qu'à ses saints!

[samuel_t]

@pilou Hello

This SketchUp plugin is of course tailored for SketchUp.
However you can use its underlying converters outside.
