Are you serious right now?! Forgive my frustration, but this just has to happen now?! Unbelieveable! “FAILED TO UPLOAD?!”

How big is the model file? I just uploaded a model to the 3D Warehouse to test it and had no problem.

Maybe it has something to do with the graphics. As an experiment, try removinig those materials from the model and try the upload again.

I only looked at the first one. Why is it floating more than 28 meters above the ground plane?

The file you uploaded is a SketchUp 2017 file but your profile says you are using SketchUp 2026. Which one is it really?

I see. As for why my model floating more than 28 meters above the ground plane, I didn’t think of doing so.

Anyways, I’ll try that.

That would be annoying to others who might want to use your model because it would come into their model floating above everything.

Okay. Point taken. The uploads already worked by the way.

It’s happening again?! What the HECK!

Forgive me for my frustration. But I really had it with and tired of this “Failed To Upload” nonsense.

And YES, I already updated my profile, so it shouldn’t have anything to do with that!

I even tried to re-upload, but nothing! Sometimes, it’s talking too long, stuck with “Preview is Not Currently Available”. I DID "Purged Unused’', but it’s not helping much!

Again, forgive me for my frustration. It’s not my first time experiencing this technical issue for no reason and it’s getting annoying.

Let’s see if @TheGuz knows if something is going on.

Finally, a reply. Thanks.

I hope there is a better explanation why this keeps on happening even though it’s nothing to do with what I did.
