What is the best import format to use if i am bringing in a large terrain model from Reality Scan to SU? It is a site plan and i want to add a SU model to it.
I can get a DAE in but there are no colors / textures.
they usually are in a folder next to the file.
according to this help page, you have a lot of choices :
I’d say check the GLB. and if you have an import plugin (universal importer or Skimp), you can also check the USD / USDZ
(you might need to use the desktop version to do that, I’m not sure, haven’t scanned anything in a couple of year)
Whichever one SketchUp doesn’t nerf the normals on import.
You do not want edges to be generated - cross your fingers and prepare for a SketchUp meltdown.
USDZ or GLB would be the 2 I would look at - they are both open source formats and can be imported without additional extensions.
