BIMx rendering

Roopa A — Tue, 09 May 2023 13:05:14 GMT

I have imported objects from archieve.3d.net, to the project.

When I do the normal rendering the images are correct. But when I exported to BIMx it is coming pink color, I ticked the check box from Publisher set to render with Generate Global illumination for realistic shading (This will increase rendering time). Still I is coming pink.

I have shared the screenshot, Object looking in AC, Rendered image, BIMx object after GI.

Thank you

Hello Roopa A,

Archieve.3d.net is not a BIM platform.
You are able to find some gsm but not lcf files.
LCF are contener files which could include texture but not into a gsm file.
So you must rebuild you surface into archicad with internal engine and maxon engine.
IG is not able to delete texture into your BimX.

Have a nice day,

How to do that?

I got lcf file also when downloading. But lcf file cannot be imported to archicad?

But lcf file cannot be imported to archicad?

Of course it is possible !
LCF is a Library Contener File.
You should add a library not an object by importing a LCF file.

Use the Library Manager in Archicad to load extra libraries.

I tried from Library manager, but it is not showing to import the .lcf file.
