Description : Finally! Painlessly import and simplify high-poly models FAST into SketchUp! Supports FBX, OBJ, STL, DAE and more. Skimp is a new professional import extension designed to quickly and easily import high-quality models into SketchUp! Skimp can reduce face count, dramatically reduce SketchUp file size, and simplify a SketchUp model while maintaining the look. Unfortunately, SketchUp isn’t designed to handle millions of polygons. With Skimp, you don’t need a supercomputer just to use a high-quality model of a sofa or bed from 3D models. Stop struggling with bloated high-poly models! It’s time to start using SketchUp again with Skimp!
Benefits:
• Import, preview and simplify FBX, OBJ, STL, DAE, 3DS, VRML, PLY
• Simplify groups and components in your SketchUp model
• Very fast import and simplification
• Preview, scale and orientation before import
• Accurate simplification based on metrics
• Maintain model hierarchy
• Preserve materials, UVs and normals when importing and simplifying
• Compatible with PC and Mac
