Import External Models to SketchUp with TRANSMUTR! (FBX, OBJ, 3DS, etc!)

[@Thesketchupessentials]

Hi everyone! Let me know what you think about Transmutr in the comments below! :)

[@Mark_5150]

If you don't apply, or point to the bitmaps that are used on the model, I've found that the UV's/mapping isn't always transferred correctly into SketchUp, or rather, you can't always apply the map or material in SketchUp correctly. If you try to replace the map with the paint bucket it can mes up the UV's as well. The best way I have found is using Vray's Select and replace material function, if you use Vray.

Thank you very very much sir 🌹🌹 good video

[@Thesketchupessentials]

Thanks!

[@krypt2k25]

There is one more addon that do this but this one is just the best for SketchUp it's really good at importing

[@Thesketchupessentials]

I personally like the proxy function - lets you load your maps into your models for rendering, which is a GREAT feature

[@cgonzt5636]

Thanks, can I modify that proxy to whatever object I like? So it doesn’t look like an exploded shapes.

[@cgonzt5636]

Thanks! When purchasing a texture-ready models for Sketchup Vray use, is .obj the best format to use?

[@vmafarah9473]

Why some maxtree imported objects have wired glossy feel in enscpae when transmuted into sketchup.

[@Thesketchupessentials]

Not 100% sure - you might try inverting the roughness/gloss map slot

[@RenataJensen]

Hello my problem is the Maxtree files in Lumion they become too heavy, usually I buy and apply the maps in Blender, I save to collada to import to Lumion, but they are too heavy, I will try transmutr,
