SketchUp File Converter

The tool converts SketchUp SKP models into widely used 3D formats for downstream workflows such as rendering, fabrication, and game development. It supports OBJ/MTL, FBX, STL for 3D printing, and GLTF/GLB for real-time engines. Conceptually, the process reads the SKP scene graph, geometry, materials, and textures, then re-encodes geometry, UVs, and materials into the chosen target format while applying unit scaling as configured. This enables a designer to prepare a model for a specific pipeline without manual re-creation. Use cases include exporting architectural geometry for a GLTF viewer, generating an STL for printing with preserved scale, or converting to FBX for import into a game engine. Core value lies in fidelity controls (textures, materials, hierarchy) and robust error handling that prevents silent data loss. The tool differentiates itself by combining explicit unit-aware conversion, optional texture preservation, and batch processing capabilities, reducing rework and enabling seamless handoffs between design and production workflows. Typical workflows include a model ready for Unity with GLTF, a printable STL with scaled units, or an OBJ + MTL with materials for visualization in a renderer. The system is designed for architects, dissipates geometric inconsistencies, and accelerates collaboration across disciplines by providing consistent, interoperable outputs.
