Problem is the names (AC12 IDs) get completely lost and get replaced by something like 2:3:8 or 1:1:2.<BR /> <BR /> As far as we have discovered, the second number is a subpart counter (e.g. windows have 16 or 20 subparts), and the last number is the type of object (e.g. slabs are 8 ). The first number though changes depending upon what you´ve done with the model in AC. It seems to somehow correlate with what objects have been modified and the order in which they have been touched.<BR /> <BR /> In summary, all we need is something that either names the 3ds object with the IDs or at least that we can create from AC that correlates those two.<BR /> <BR /> We´d appreciate any input on this. Thanks everyone!<BR /> <BR /> Dan.</T></DIV> Thu, 05 Feb 2009 10:50:33 GMT Anonymous 2009-02-05T10:50:33Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Collaboration-with-other/3DS-object-names-and-AC12-Object-IDs/m-p/167727#M19291 <DIV class="actalk-migrated-content"><T>Hello,<BR /> <BR /> We are exporting our models to 3ds from AC12.
