Hi all,

im new to using octane render and just have a quick couple of questions, which file types are supported in octane?

is their any direct exporting tool into octane render from sketchup?

How do you export your sketchup model as the correct file type to then open in octane?

Thank you for reading

Octane reads OBJ files and a sketchup plugin is in development and will be available in a few weeks.
You need sketchup pro to export to OBJ format.

There are .obj importer and exporter for the "free" SketchUp, too:
