• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Converting Sketchup Models With Textures

Messages

I have successfully managed to convert sketchup models that are downloadable as COLLADA ziped files which contain textures.

When I download the *.skp files (where no COLLADA files are provided) I can upload that file into Sketchup but when I export those files I do not get any texture files therefore I cannot compile an object using ModelConverter X.

Is it possible to convert *.skp files? Is so what is the proceedure? Where do the textures files end up after export?
 
Yes , don't should be a problem, I think they are exported, the model and one folder with the textures, with the name of the model. look closely where the exported model go, make a dedicated folder for that exported models, or something so.:cool:
 
Yes that's what I thought. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong in my procedure with importing skp files.

I'll keep plugging away.
