Description

A small script that helps you copy objects in SketchUp, and paste them directly in 3dsMax, with the origin and texture preserved. It will make your SU>MAX workflow a lot faster, especially for people who like to model on SketchUp.

HOW TO INSTALL

You must have the script installed in both 3dsMax and SketchUp for it to work. It doesn’t matter which one you install first.
In SketchUp: use Extension Manager to install RBZ file. The “Copy to 3dsMax” command will appear in the Extensions menu.
In 3dsMax: drag and drop MZP file into the viewport and press Install. After installed, you can find it in D95 DESIGN category > Paste from SketchUp.
In SketchUp, use Copy to 3dsMax command to copy, and paste it in 3dsMax with Paste from SketchUp command.

SET SHORTCUT

In SketchUp: Windows > Preferences > Shorcut > Copy to 3dsMax (Ctrl + Shift + C recommend).
In 3dsMax: Customize User Interface > Keyboard > D95 DESIGN > Paste from SketchUp (Ctrl + Shift + V recommend).

I finally uncerstood what was the problem:
C:\Temp MUST be created manually in order to make the script work!

Sorry for late reply

Sorry for the late reply, unfortunately there is no notification feature on Scriptspot so I missed your comment. By the way, I have updated to version 1.12, with new "copy" method, much faster and less bugs (I also fixed the C:\Temp folder not being found).

Unfortunately it does not paste from *latest* version of SU. It looks like it's broken on Max end

Many thanks, will definetly buy

It is a free script, you can download it from the link I provide the above. :D

I haven't tried it on the latest version of SketchUp, but I'm pretty sure it should work.
