I have imported a few models from 16 as .3ds files without too many problems, apart from smoothing some of the polys.<BR /> <BR /> But now i am experiencing a problem that i've never seen before, in the 3ds Max viewport when i import a .3ds file the geometry blurs when I stop moving the viewport, i don't think its a graphics card issue as i have tried it on another PC with exactly the same results, when saved as a .obj file the blur issue goes away but there is still a problem with the geometry, triangulating/faceting a flat surface, the facets are not in the Archicad model and there doesn't seem to be a problem in C4D but when it is exported it creates the additional geometry.<BR /> <BR /> It seems like the problem occurs in the export, the only solution i can see is to recreate the geometry in Max but that could take hours/days, does anyone have a fix for this? <IMG src="https://community.graphisoft.com/legacyfs/online/emojis/icon_cry.gif" style="display : inline;" /></R></DIV> Fri, 19 Sep 2014 11:04:47 GMT Anonymous 2014-09-19T11:04:47Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Collaboration-with-other/Exporting-from-Archicad-17-produces-errors/m-p/210100#M26446 <DIV class="actalk-migrated-content"><R>Trying to import a model from Archicad 17 into 3DS Max but having major issues.
