AC14 - Google Earth Connections importing Warehouse models

Anonymous — Mon, 04 Jun 2012 22:35:20 GMT

I am using AC14 and installed the add-on for Google Earth Connections so that I can import Google Warehouse SketchUp Objects (Models).
The Connection does not import the object from the Google warehouse.
If I manually download the *.skp and try to open it with AC it does nothing but start a project file with the objects name. Trying to File Merge the skp file into a pln file also does nothing.

Help.

Started working today. Always strange. Anyone that wonders about the process of importing the objects here is a Wiki Article.

How's the quality? Every time I've tried it I end up going back to 3DS. it's too bad there's no more .obj import.
