I have a question if You could enlighten me a bit, if i forgot something to add into the model or if I have to Change some partss of the model in Archicad, how can i import the changes into the excisitng 3Ds Max file where I have already started with the light and material adjustmens. My concern is if i just overwrit the file I wouldnt know to keep my Render progress with in 3dsMax and Vray.

Excellent tutorial, but when I export using the second method( surface) an error message comes up the "too many vertices or faces.."

[ismaelbadarou]

Which units do you use in archicad? cm or m?

[CristianWSoza]

[doaaelhassan]

When I make something with morph or shell the profile section of it in 3dsmax or lumion becomes curve or circle even if it is a cube .. why ?

[stefaniekaiser]

Hi! Since I'm using ArchiCAD 25, I don't have the ".fbx" format anymore. What other format, that is similar to this one, can I use for 3ds Max? Thanks in advance!
