Does anyone know if it's possible to upload buildings from other software types such as sketch up or autocad? I have a load of designs already, and really don't want to have to do them all again using the SL software. Any suggestions?

As far as I personally know, you cannot upload files in such a manner.
From what I understand, you'd have to build in SL then texture it from there only. I could be wrong, or there may be a work around, but if there is, I've never seen any info on it. |

Currently to build stuff in SL you have to use the building tools provided ingame.

There is an offline builder that uses Blender, here's the thread about it:

I think I am right in saying some Lindens were able to import or design something in Second Life using software technology dependent or linked to the Google Earth project. I remember seeing something in the the orginal main welcome area.
Perhaps others can expand on that Regards John |
