BHunter Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 (edited) I am running 12.5.3 on a PC. What versions of SKP are supported? I have been trying to import some items from skp.6 and nothing shows up. Do I need to rerun the 12.5.3 updater? Thanks, Bob Hunter VW 12.5.3 Intel Pentium Dual 1.46 2.00GHz Ram Edited April 25, 2009 by BHunter Quote Link to comment
Ray Libby Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 I think Sketchup v5 is the latest version supported. Quote Link to comment
Pat Stanford Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 I believe the VW12.5 only recognized up to SKP 5. VW2008 or later is required for SKP 6. Quote Link to comment
BHunter Posted April 26, 2009 Author Share Posted April 26, 2009 Thanks Ray and Pat. I was searching the board for answers, and found out exactly that. So, I DLed skp and resaved the symbols as skp 5. While we're here, on a different tack: It seems that circumstances are moving me away from entertainment design into architectural- (i.e. roadways and parking lots) I found VW spotlight to be a little lacking in this area, so in my searches, I found a program called DIALux. It's for exactly this, but it's a little dated; I'm finding IES files to plug into it, so I should be able to make it work. Is Arch. or Designer able to do this? Is there a "modern" CAD that deals with this area? Thanks, Bob Hunter Quote Link to comment
Ray Libby Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 You should start a new thread in the Landmark forum and ask your question. Quote Link to comment
BHunter Posted April 26, 2009 Author Share Posted April 26, 2009 Will do, Thanks Bob Hunter Quote Link to comment
JeffPPI Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Hi Perhaps this is a stupid question, but how do I import a sketchup file? I go to File>Import>, but I don't see .skp files available. I use Sketchup Pro to convert to DWG and import that way. Thanks Quote Link to comment
Ray Libby Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Add "Import SketchUp" to your workspace with the workspace editor. Quote Link to comment
go2greece Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 download the plugin at http://www.nemetschek.net i think you have to go to architect. peter Quote Link to comment
Joe Golden ENT Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 I have "Import SketchUp" in my workspace and nothing is imported. Will this only work on V5 or V6? I know there was a limitation on VW12.5. Thanks Quote Link to comment
Administrator JuanP Posted May 5, 2009 Administrator Share Posted May 5, 2009 Export the file to SU 6; currently VW 2009 does not support SU7. Quote Link to comment
