    Ok. So that could be the problem?
    And where do you get the toolkit?

    Another way to check the material names out is convert the mesh back to XML with
    OGREXmlConverter and then Open the XML in Notepad++ to edit the material names..or to check the names..

    Then edit the material names in the .material file so they are the same..

    Where to get the stuff:
    Http://Ogre3d.org Go Here for Ogre3D Tools

    http://notepad-plus-plus.org/
    Get Notepad++ Here

    Ok. I will try! So the problem could be that the names are not the same in the XML?

    It looks like you have flipped faces(normals are facing the wrong way).

    Try looking in the sketchup manual on how to flip faces.

    I use this: Sketchup-Backface-Remover. It makes the face double sided. It isn't the most efficient way, but it works.

    To fix the problem since your not familiar with blender is a couple lines in the material file
    add the cull hardware lines only between the brackets shown into your material file.


    Code:
    material Sketchy
    {
    	receive_shadows on
    	technique
    	{
    		pass
    		{
    			cull_hardware none
    			cull_software none
    			texture_unit
    			{
    				texture sketchy.dds
    			}
    
    		}
    	}
    }
