            I donΒ΄t know why the zip is damage or in a wrong format. i use windows8

            could you try RAR? normally WIN RAR can zip files open, too

            thank you Dean

            p.s. color and "farben" is the same, only the file is different πŸ˜‰

                thank you Dave its the German Version πŸ˜„

                all Beginner (not you Dave) in Sketchup must remember, that RAL is a subtractive color system

                Link Preview Image

                favicon

                (en.wikipedia.org)

                and what you see, is an aditive color in sketchup

                important is the RAL No.

                p.s. My idea: a thread for all Colorsystems wordwide and possible downloads concentraded in on thread.

                  Hello,
                  I've downloaded Tig's RAL file with English names (thanks Tig) and placed it in my materials folder, where all the colours are in a second folder and show as SKM files. It shows as a collection in the paint bucket but it's empty....I've tried a re-start a couple of times but still no joy.... help please πŸ˜„

                        thanks Driven,

                        I've managed to sort it with Dave's help, the problem was that I'd put all of Tig's folder in my plugins folder, where as I should have opened his folder and just copied/moved the folder within the folder, (i.e. the one containing all the skm files) into my plugins folder. Once I'd done that it worked fine.

                        best regards, Sally
