Import sketch up model into archicad 13 project

Anonymous

Hi,
have just downloaded and installed the add-on google earth connection for archicad (13, 32bit).

I have a sketchup model that I want to import into my archicad project, but cannot find out how I do it. Do I have to upload the sketchup model to the 3D warehouse in order to then download it again into my archicad project? Can I not just link the file I have on my computer and import it directly into my archicad project?

Svensdottter,

Now that you have the add-on installed you can simply go to File>Open and you will notice that the ".skp" extension has been added to the list of file types you can open.

Then you can save it as a .pln or module and link it into your project.
