Hi blackdolphin,

 

 

You can use sketchup to help you for re-create some stuff for the game. But I don't think use them and export them directly as SC4model, it will be be an plagiarism... 
If you wanna create props for the lot Editor, several stuff on sketchup are in 2D  and not in 3D.
 
For me, I use Sketchup only when I need mesures or when the building wasn't easier  to understand with picture or google earth view ;)

    You can import sketchup models to 3dsmax and render them from there.
