Give sketchup surfaces different texture in ArchiCAD

Hi,

I got a complex sketchup model of the build environment around my ArchiCAD project. I now would like to make some renders in ArchiCAD using the CineRender engine. However, the textures of the sketchup file are really unrealistic. I'd like a more realistic texture, for example for the grass and bricks. Is there a way to paint them with a ArchiCAD texture? I tried the paint bucket but it doesn't work on skp files merged into the project...

Best regards,
Vincent

I don't know if there is another way, but the way I know to do this is converting the SKP model to morph and paint. Later you can save it as an library object.

That's exactly what I needed! Thanks!
