Topic: New Revit Collada exporter ver. 1.10 released.

[Artur Brzegowy]

We have released a new version of our Revit Collada exporter for Lumion users.
It is available in the Customer Area: http://lumion3d.com/credits/UserBoard/Dashboard.aspx

Improvements:
- Better material support
- Better material name support
- Better texture support

Here's the difference between the old and the new version of the Revit Collada exporter:

Many thanks.

That's going to please a few Revit users.   

ArchiCAD next on the list?

Hope this helps, been trying all sorts of formats... I always end up with no materials and cross linked materials?? Will report back...

This looks great but whenever I try to export I get a 1kb file.  I am using version 1.10.  Am I doing something wrong or is my file just to big?

@Eric:
Does it occur always or only with particular Revit project?
Could you send me your example file to test ([email protected])?

Your file is not too big. Can you post the file?

[Eric Gratacap]

Thanks for the quick reply...

I got another large file (when I mean large I don't mean file size, I mean quantity of 3d information like a TON of mullions and curtain panels) to export, not as large as the one that didn't work but large none the less. 

Unfortunately the project is confidential so I am unable to post it.

I'm excited to have a revit exporter, but objects with a split face do not come in properly.  I loose this data.

If you are using Revit 2012, try using Parts and Dividing the Parts, instead of Split Face/Paint in Revit, and see if it comes thru via Collada plugin.

I'll try the parts feature, but it would make sense to pick up the split face feature of revit.

The parts feature is neat, but split face has it's purposes and I believe should be addressed.
