Effective Importing of High Poly Objects to Sketchup
First topic message reminder :
hi cgpips, and sketchups users:
mejo maluwag time ko ngaun kya nakaisip magshare ng simpleng trick,
although meron pa sigurong mas madaling paraan dito sa workflow ko.
Export-Import Errors
I. this is the most common pop-up error we see during export from max to 3ds.

II. and this is the usual import result in sketchup.

The Workflow:
A. export the max model to .obj instead of 3ds.
u can specify here what to group in the model upon export, kung by material, etc.

B. Import the .obj file to Cinema4D:
* As much as possible, delete all materials in the scene. (ito ang kadalasang dahilan kung bakit nag-hahang o kaya matagal mag-link o maglagay ng material sa vray, dahil sinusubukan ng vfsu basahin lhat ng parameters ng materials, reflect, refract etc.)

C. Export the file in C4D to 3ds, then import to sketchup.
Here's the result:

*This is just my personal experiences, kung me mas madali po kaung paraan, u could share it too.
Hope this help.

Re: Effective Importing of High Poly Objects to Sketchup
meron bro..
kapag nag apply ka ng texture sa curved face dapat projected yung i choose mo. to do that, right click mu lang yung inaaply mung material, then click texture ( check projected) kapag projected na sya, click mo yung sample na yun using eyedropper and then i apply mo sya sa lahat (ctrl+click)
second option, gusto mo i download mo yung isang ruby na ang pangalan ay UV tools. punta ka sa Skechucation.com at i search mu nalan duon sa forum (ruby discussion). you can either apply spherical or cylindrical.
