How do I convert an FBX file to SKP?

Upload your FBX file on the converter, select SKP as the target format, adjust any unit or quality settings, then click Convert. Once the conversion finishes, download the resulting SKP file and open it in SketchUp. Any animation data in the FBX will be ignored since SketchUp does not support it.

Why should I convert FBX to SKP instead of working with the FBX directly?

While FBX is ideal for exchanging animated 3D assets across tools like Maya, 3ds Max, or Unity, SKP is the native format for SketchUp, enabling direct editing, drafting, and collaboration in architectural workflows. Converting to SKP also simplifies models for non-animated presentations and ensures compatibility with SketchUp's ecosystem.

What happens to the geometry and materials when converting from FBX to SKP?

The converter preserves mesh topology, UV coordinates, material names, and texture references. However, NURBS and subdivision surfaces are tessellated into polygon meshes. PBR materials are simplified to SketchUp's material system, and transparency is preserved only when the texture includes an alpha channel. Animation rigs and camera paths are not retained.
