Re: [GeoJourney] converting VRML to Sketch Up

rybo,

It looks like 3Ds is needed to get a model into SketchUp.  As I recall 3Ds is quite spendy.

I found a file converter that can get me from VRML
to Sketch Up. This is the test into Google.

This is the file converter. It costs 20 dollars US. Don't
have to pay for 30 days. I think it will be worth it.

It converts many 3D formats and it does XYZ. Adrian's work
can go into Sketch Up, too.

I noticed I had to strip out all the springs to make it work
better. I don't think Sketch-up liked lots of polygons.

Sketch-up has a viewer which is still way bigger then the plug in
for VRML. But, the possibiltiy of getting geometry into the 3D modeling world might be interesting. 

I had to go from VRML to 3Ds which Sketch-up opens.
