When converting some DAE models (source is SketchUp) we see vector artifacts after they have been converted with the glTF Model Converter (see attached screenshot)
These artifacts are not hidden elements from SketchUp
Here’s an example of a SKP file that has this issue: https://3dwarehouse.sketchup.com/model/35f9b4b7b194cbe4a09b78b598dcbd4d/Tour-KPMG
This occurs with all output modes of the Model converter.
What can we do to a SKP file to scrub it of such artifacts so we can bring it into Cesium cleanly?
You can try using COLLADA2GLTF directly. The version on the Cesium convert model page is a bit out of date.
I was able to convert the model without any issues using that. Here is the gltf: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BwZiE_1SDr-XOWZzelNFa0VjZlE

Awesome! Thanks Sean, that did the trick. I’ll try that other converter for other affected models.
Will the web base converter for Collada to glTF be updated soon? Git isn’t accessible from China so I need another solution.
The web version will eventually be updated for glTF 2.0 but not in the short term. Do you at least have access to the COLLADA2GLTF binaries?
Hi Sean, just running into this again... I'm trying to give instructions to SketchUp users to be able to this and pointing them to binaries is too complex. Any thoughts on when the web version will be updated?
Cheers,
Greg
Sorry I don’t have an exact estimate. The upgrade to 2.0 will probably happen in a month or so.
Ok thanks for the update, that timing would be great.
Thx
Greg
Hi Greg, the online model converter is now upgraded to glTF 2.0.
