Google Warehouse to 3Dxchange to DAZ Studio

It's been some time since I used 3Dxchange, but I originally purchased it to import .obj files into Studio - which, if memory serves, USED to work. Now the files import with the mesh/textures all wonky and I can't figure out how to fix it.

Has anyone done this successfully lately?

Thanks!

    depends on how the sketchup model is made
    many have ngons and backwards normals etc
    they usually need cleaning up in a modeling program, iClone is a lot more forgiving than DAZ of such things
    the sketchucation obj exporter gives a better result in my opinion but still can be pretty crappy
    also in 3DXchange or preferably sketchup try deleting backface meshes if any as are duplicates and the white bits you see, it may still export complete though sadly
    saving as an iProp first with hidden not imported might work

    Thanks, Wendy!

    Never heard of sketchucation obj exporter. Will check it out. Will also try deleting backface meshes if I can figure out how. ;-)

    I'm with Wendy on this...never converted a SU model that didn't need some amount of fixing before it was usable.
