Posts: 20 		One issue I have had with Muvizu is that I never seemed to be able to import models correctly. I have the same Sketchup and conversion tools, but I would often get errors when I tried to import them. Now, I seem to have a great deal more success and better results, even though periodically it tells me that a model is too large or too small. There is such incredible potential with this tool, with iClone going over the top to regulate even the physics of how objects interact. I use both tools interchangeably, and I have learned to work with all manner of digital models and visual/audio tools. I am still reliant on the great artists on Muvizu for assets, but I think this latest release has come a long way in fixing imports of fbx and ase files. Now, if only it would allow for obj and skp, I would consider that a major leap in compatibility. Well done!

The latest version of Muvizu (March 2017) does support .obj files, although they're less reliable than .fbx from what I've heard. I doubt that Muvizu will have the ability to import .skp files in the future.
