It was already in "deprecated" folder for the 2014 and 2015 releases and used to work very well! Can you have a try
Regards.

Hi everybody,
Not that new in the community but this is is my first post.
I'm a "SketchupTo3dsMax" user and I've got a problem with the new Sketchup 2016, as Trimble decided not to release the SDK (need to be a developer). I used to use a simple method consisting of replacing the "SketchUpReader.dll" (provided in the SDK) into 3dsMax root folder to be able to import the Sketchup model directly without having to save as a previous version - making it more convenient and easy to work with a project with many updates ...
It's a small issue but if you guys could help me (i guess is forbidden to share the .dll …)
Thank you.
