Download "3D Studio In" and install this plug-in in the Add Ons folder.<BR /> Restart Archicad. Find the 3Ds importer under "File Special"<BR /> <BR /> Use it to bring the exported SketchUp file in as an Archicad Object. Naturally you'll save it to a folder in the existing Archicad library to simplify loading.<BR /> <BR /> I'm working a lot in SketchUp since becoming Western Canada's Certified Trainer. What fun. It turns architecture into a Video Game.
