• 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.

Is there a good APP to import an airport project drawn in Sketchup 20** to Blender 2.*

When I follow along with Austin Sass Youtube video I do not get the same results, it does not show up in Blender. I suspect there is something I am missing.I am trying to save a 3d model.

Thanks

Randy

If you find that exporting as DAE is sometimes quirky, and that the textures sometimes do not play nicely, try exporting as a WaveFront OBJ. This is my personal preferred method.

Export with Texture Maps from Sketchup. Then Import in Blender with the following settings:

Also, consider the Batch Wavefront OBJ Import plugin for blender (last answer on page).

I agree with mousy. When bringing over Sketchup files in to Blender the best file type ive found is OBJ. Dae is ok on some small models as the textures can be corrected but on larger / complex one dae files dont play nicely at all when you look at some of the transferred textures
