This is the anything goes forum correct? Ok. I posted this but it vanished not sure if someone deleted it or I goofed somehow. Here's me trying again.
Does anyone have any experience bringng models from the free version of SketchUp to 3DGS? I just downloaded it to try to get back into 3D. The workflow seems straight forward. I was thinking if I produce anything useful I might try to make it available here in mdl format. I haven't touched 3DGS in a couple years so there is a knowledge disconnect now but I still hang around the forum.
I imagine there might be issues of what format to export from/to, mapping, texture size or some other issues so if someone has experience Sketchup>3DGS and wouldn't mind sharing it that would be great.

Oops, sorry. I didn't get a notification of your response. I'll have to see. There is an amazingly active plugin community on the forums with loads of extensions. It may be I can find something and do a test. Can you tell me what the best / most reliable format to import into MED is (been away a while). Maybe they already have a plugin that goes to that format.
Also a possibly dumb question but is it possible to import some format in to be converted to WED blocks?

All mdl files can be imported as static meshes into WED, thus it becomes more or less the same as a block.
