Thanks a lot for this tip.

It's not a big problem but dispite tkis trick the tail of the manta is lost.

Hello,

I got problems when I try to import a 3ds textured model. Some faces are not textured and are transparent and some faces are lost (the tail of the manta for example)

The model I try to import is Manta0.3ds and the texture is MantaT.bmp.

Both can be loaded at the URL below.

I have tried to convert this 3ds file to a dae file. The result is OK under Sketchup 2013 but I have lost the texture.

Any idea or workaround?
