Hello! Really need help... 😛
I'm working in an office and in my computer I do not have administrator priviledges. I'm using Google Earth 5 and Google SketchUp 7 but when I try to import a terrain from Google Earth into SketchUp, Google Earth asks for a file called GoogleEarth.msi to complete the installation.
My administrator has already updated Google Earth and the import/export process works perfectly on his login, but on mine it keeps asking for the .msi file.
Even if I can find the .msi file (which the Google Earth installer apparently deletes), the dialog does not allow me to edit the folder path to retrieve the file and the preset path is some temp folder in the administrator folders, where I cannot access files.
Does anyone have any solution for this? Thank you for any tips! 😄

Henrique,

The problem you are experiencing is related to the Google Earth installer. I passed the information on to the developer who created the GE installer and he is looking into it. Since the problem is apparently very rare and complex, I can't promise it's easily fixable, but at least you know we are aware of it.

Excelent, thanks, your technique worked wonderfully!
I've already tried Terrain Reshaper, yes, but I had quite large terrains and it was unable to retriangulate it correctly.
Thanks again!! 😄

Hello again!

Indeed there were a couple of threads about this topic, I had a closer look now.
And yes, my model was very big, I was doing a very large sea plane that would be as near as possible to the horizon. I've already reduced it quite a bit and the problem got quite a lot more manageable. Thank you all for the tips! 😄
