This sketchup plugin can be used to transform and open models created in newer versions of sketchup by initially transferring them down to a support format. It is very effective for opening model from sketchup free (2018 format) in Make 2017.
The extension is specifically designed for hobby users who use Make 2017 to open models created in SketchUp Free (that applies the 2018 format).
It is only compatible with 64 bit Windows.
Source code is accessible at GitHub github.com.
For online demonstration, go through the following video tutorial.
