Question by dahc2332 · Mar 22, 2012 at 02:52 PM · fbximportingsketchup

SketchUp to Unity Problems

I have SketchUp Pro and I'm trying to import a complicated model into Unity as a .fbx. The import is fine but when I play the game I fall thru the floor. I also notice that when I am above the floor it is invisible until I fall thru it. Any ideas? Thanks in advanced for your help!

Sketchup is notoriously bad. I've spoken to Unity about fixing this, they are open, so is Google. Sketchup draws both sides of each polygon, but exports only one-sided, and it's random which sides are correct. I export as dae (or whatever), take into Blender to fix the normals, then just use the .blend file to go to Unity.

No one should be checking generate mesh collider on import, ever. $$anonymous$$ost of the time you want to use several box colliders, and in the cases where you absolutely must use a mesh collider, you should model it separately from the display mesh with much fewer polys.

Mesh colliders are notorious for letting things fall through. Make sure a mesh collider is attached to your model. You can add another cube as for a floor collider too.

Regarding you only see the floor until you are beneath it, perhaps try flipping normals in Sketchup. Although I have no idea how to do this in it.

Try putting that fbx through another 3d program and export it. I had the exact same problem.

I had the exact same problem, try putting the fbx through cinema 4d and re-export it (or any other 3d program, i used c4d though) worked for me.
