Hi all,

I made a basic 3D mast with Sketchup 2015 then exported it as .OBJ. There is only 1 material, very simple.
But I can not open it with Object Editor : Access Violation message ...
Any idea please ?

Do you have both OBJ and MTL files together?

Yes, both .MTL and .OBJ files

In Sketchup / export :
After all selected, I choose 'export', then in the window : Export result :

Always error issue in Object Editor.

All Sketchup export .OBJ options tested ... always Error message in Object Editor

Also tested with other OBJ files ... issues

upload the files in a support ticket please.

I know it's a shot in the dark, but if you look inside the OBJ file, what character is used as a decimal separator? "." or ","?

.OBJ file content :

# Alias OBJ Model File
# Exported from SketchUp, (c) 2000-2012 Trimble Navigation Limited
# File units = meters

mtllib cubetest.mtl

If this is the output of SketchUp, then it is seriously messed up. I cannot import it to 3D Max either, it gives me error.

Got the files, thanks.

They open fine in Wings3d. If I then use wings3d to save them back to obj, then that works in Object Editor.

i will report this for Uros, but can I suggest you use wings for modelling?

Or at least, use it to import/export obj files for the time being?

Ok, after searching and Many tries ... I succeeded
1 - Sketchup for modeling runway, mast and proxy, group each, then export .obj
2 - .obj import with Wings3d, then export again .obj for AirfieldG.obj and AirfieldO.obj
3 - ObjectEditor to save as .c3d

Thanks all, hope it can help others

There is something seriously weird about Sketch Up. I would avoid using it for modelling altogether - crap software IMO

The issue with sketchup is on our bug list, but I can't promise a speedy resolution because we are busy on other things.

2,5 years passed. Seems this issue is still present.
