Convert SketchUp .skp to Autodesk FBX (.fbx)
Open your SketchUp files in Unreal Engine and any FBX-compatible app. Start free — no plugin, no SketchUp Pro subscription.
Why you need to downgrade first
SketchUp files saved in newer versions (2024, 2025, 2026) can't be opened by SketchUp Make 2017 or SketchUp Free — which are the free tools you need to export FBX. DownConvert bridges that gap: downgrade to SketchUp 2017, then export to Autodesk FBX for free.
1. Upload .skp
Drop your SketchUp file — any version 2017 to 2026.
2. Downgrade to 2017
We convert your file to SketchUp 2017 in seconds.
3. Export to FBX
Open in SketchUp Free / Make 2017 and export as .fbx.
Who uses Autodesk FBX?
Unreal Engine, Unity, Maya, Blender — mostly for Game engines, animation rigs, cross-DCC transfer. If your workflow needs your SketchUp geometry in one of these tools, FBX is usually the safest exchange format.
What is preserved
- Geometry, groups and components
- Materials and textures (when the target format supports them)
- Layer structure and component hierarchy
- Scale and units
