As the Datasmith 2021 plugin is not working in the new SketchUp 2022, any info and when this plugin will get updated?

I'm sure you're aware of this, but just in case, the new SketchUp 2022 can't load the old 2021 Datasmith plugin. I've tried uninstalling, restarting and reinstalling, but I keep getting the same error above.

Error:

A quick update, MikeWayzovski from the SketchUp forum found a solution, force SKP 2022 to run with Rosetta. The performance goes out the window, but at least the Datasmith plugin loads and exports correctly. (I actually do my work in Native mode, then quit SKP, force Rosetta, export Datasmith, then reopen in Native to keep working, a pain, but workable).

Hello ,

We have just releases a plugin version that would work for SKP 2022. Hope it works well and if you encounter any issues please contact us.

Go to the link and scroll down to the "Versions for Unreal Engine Preview releases" links: https://www.twinmotion.com/plugins/sketchup-pro

kind regards,

Hi Vincent,

Thanks for the update, unfortunately when I go to the plugin page, it’s exactly the same file and information as before. Are you sure it’s been updated??

I went ahead and downloaded the package anyway, definitely doesn’t contain a 2022 version!

Apologies Vincent, I didn’t read all of your email properly, so didn’t realize I had to scroll down to get to the newest plugin.

Unrelated, but I can’t help wondering if you’re based in France? You have a very french looking name.
