I keep getting the following error when saving my .skp file: Results of Validity Check. *** Problems were found that could not be fixed! *** The entity at address cc582000 has an invalid id (0) destroyed (0) === What can I do and is it something to worry about?

[image] NewThinking2: You’re a genius! Not really. This usually comes from errors in component definitions that are downloaded from the 3D Warehouse. Never download directly into your model. Insert into a new empty model, and inspect the component for problems.

I still get the message in Sketchup 2017, like it doesn’t help tp purge unsed nor fix problems, so my model are now ruined for ever…

I’ve had the same problem but what Dan Rathbun posted worked perfectly for me so thanks!

[image] hen_ojgaard: I still get the message in Sketchup 2017, like it doesn’t help tp purge unsed nor fix problems, so my model are now ruined for ever… Are you downloading 3DW models directly into your models ?

I’m getting this error and yes, I did download a 3DW model and that’s when the error started happening. Purging didn’t help. Tried both.

[image] ryanmack: I did download a 3DW model and that’s when the error started happening. Lesson learned ? Do not do this. Download into an empty model and examine the model for errors before ever inserting into your own models. Hopefully you can fix this by deleting the instance of the 3DW…

This [skecthup] Purging did not solve the problem. I have not downloaded any new components from warehouse recently or had any problem of this sort before. how do I track down that entity to identify which component is giving the problems?

One option might be to use Solid Inspector 2 to analyze the model. Generally solid groups and components won’t create validity errors. They are also easier to work with when you need to make changes.

Hi Dave, thanks for your reply most of my components and groups are not solid, so I’m not sure if that will help The question is, does it affect my model? if its just a warning sign that will keep coming up, I don’t mind.

You can tell SketchUp to skip checking models in Preferences and you won’t see the message.
