Hi everybody :
I'm having a problem importing .skp files into TFP v15, using Google Sketchup 8. Apparently, GS 8 isn't compatible with TFP v15. The custom objects I made using GS 8 won't show up in the display box in the IMPORT dialog box. So I tried switching back to GS 7, and there's no problem importing .skp files into TFP. I wonder if TFP v16 would have the same problem.
The other software for creating custom objects to be used in TFP is way too expensive (around $800 +). Google Sketchup 7 works quite well. (Proving the point that "newer" isn't always better.

Hi there,
Sketchup V8 was released on Sept / 2010. I bought TFP V15 on May / 2010 therefore, it was impossible that TFP V15 was prepared for SU V8
TFP V16 supports SU V8

However, using SU8, you can Save As --> save your object as SUV7 and then import it to TFP V15
