| Re: Unable to export terrain as 3D Model in Sketchup pro 8 | alexade | 2/14/11 2:06 PM | Hey Tommy, I was trying to export an .obj.. It works when I deselect textures in the export options... Only I need the textures. All other 3D file formats with textures failed for me also. |
| Re: Unable to export terrain as 3D Model in Sketchup pro 8 | Tommy | 2/15/11 2:19 PM | Thanks for the update, Alex. Sometimes, if there are any unusual characters in a texture name or if the file extension is missing, this can cause SketchUp to have some troubles on exporting. Check the texture name in the Materials browser. |
