Extensive Connectivity with Google SketchUp
Start your project in Google SketchUp, and finesse it in 3ds Max. The Connection Extension for 3ds Max 2010 features a powerful new SKP file translator that enables you to bring your Google SketchUp scenes into 3ds Max. In addition, 3ds Max can now read thousands of free SketchUp models from the 3D Warehouse section of the Google website. The SKP translator includes:
Support for the double-faced materials workflow available in SketchUp, so arbitrary surface orientations don’t cause models to appear to be missing faces when displayed in 3ds Max.
Preservation of original pivot and scaling values of objects and instances.
Consolidation of material references. Multiple uses of the same SketchUp material are collected and referenced back to a single material, saving revision time.
