Use the Rhino Import Object Settings panel of Object Settings to set its appearance. Use the Object tool to place it into the project.Ī Rhino file placed as a single object in ARCHICAD is stored in the ARCHICAD Embedded Library. You are alerted that the import was successful:Ħ. To import them, check the Import hidden elements box.ĥ. By default, such hidden elements are NOT imported to ARCHICAD. In Rhino (unlike in ARCHICAD), it is possible to hide an individual element, whether its Layer is visible or not.
#Export archicad to obj how to
Use these controls to define how to interpret Rhino’s “hidden” elements. In general, navigation is faster in models if this option is checked On the other hand, element snapping will be available You will not be able to further adjust segmentation once the model is imported to ARCHICAD – Optionally, check the Bake Curved Geometry box to finalize segmentation before import. – If you increase segmentation (resulting in a higher number of polygons for smoother surfaces), remember that a high polygon count affects both file size and performance
– The segmentation slider affects curved geometry only, not planar elements Use the slider to adjust the segmentation of curved surfaces imported from Rhino. Set your preferences for Segmentation and Hidden elements:
Use this command to import a Rhino file as a single object in ARCHICAD:įile > Libraries and Objects > Import Rhino 3DM file as Objectģ. Like I said before, all this is already included ( and in English) in the latest version of ArchiCAD (v9).1. įalls erforderlich, SchwerkraftPunkt auf 0 setzen = when needed, put the gravity center on 0 (Don't know what the difference is with the previous option).įixpunkt erzeugen = create anchor point (hotspot) Untere Teil aud z=0 setzen = put lower part (of the whole file?) on z=0 Massstab = unit size (that is, how is one unit in the 3ds-file interpreted)ĭezimalstellen = the number of decimals after the "," or "." Koordinatentransformation = coordinate transformation In ArchiCAD v9 this function is integrated into the program, however for ArchiCAD v8.1 you have to do this through a 3ds import plugin for v8.1 that is only available at the Graphisoft German website at:Īs you might guess, the plugin itself is in German, but if you do a search through the talk forum at the English Graphisoft Forum, there was someone who did a basic/rough translation of all the functions and the gist of it was:ģds zum gsm konvertieren = to convert a 3ds file into a GSM-library part Still, your model will probably have to be mostly complete ( as in no more tweaking or poly-editing to be done carried over from MAX) for this option to be of use. But like I mentioned it has limited editability in this format( i.e just resizing, and material assignment), although it maintains the various material/texture allocation from MAX for the original model elements. This is the most commonly used format, I believe. On the other hand, you can save or export your model from MAX as a 3ds format file to import it into ArchiCAD.
But you have to be familiar or well versed in GDL scripting to work with it in this format. DWG file as a 3d gdl script editable model ( in the open dwg dialog options when starting a new model). If the former, then you have to save it as a 3D DWG and open the. It all depends on whether you want the model to be editable (parametric) or not once in ArchiCAD.
