OK,

I draw in cm and thats 10 cos 10 mm is 1 cm
so i will get right scale in 3ds

But when i export like this and import in sketchup i have to upscale 100 time to get right scale

So try with 10, and see will 3d model will be exact size like in archicad, and change this nubmer if needed.

Hello people!
I have one question about this exporting files as a .3ds file:
I can't export my project as a .3ds. Which ArchiCad can export it as .3ds? Am I using un-registered version of this software?

Thank you very much in advance.
