The only 2 available xml files are the default IFC 2x3 Schema and IFC 4 Schema, so COBie properties don't appear. <BR /> <BR /> In AC20 we could import the required COBie xml Scheme (US or UK version) with all the preset PSets and properties.<BR /> <BR /> Thanks in advance,</T></DIV><BR /><IMG src="http://community.graphisoft.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/73281iDE78CA6BB8E5ABCD/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;px=999" border="0" alt="cobie ac21 01.JPG" title="cobie ac21 01.JPG" /> Thu, 04 Jan 2018 17:16:08 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Collaboration-with-other/COBie-2-4-MVD-and-AC21-new-IFC-translator-dialogue/m-p/256628#M33565 davdelven 2018-01-04T17:16:08Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Collaboration-with-other/COBie-2-4-MVD-and-AC21-new-IFC-translator-dialogue/m-p/256629#M33566 If I look in my (localised) ARCHICAD 21 version, I have following translator setup:<BR /> <BR /> Scheme: Ifc2x3<BR /> MVD: Basic FM Handover (!)<BR /> Model Filter: most elements from architecture<BR /> Type Mapping: default AC21 Type Mapping<BR /> Geometry Conversion: Mostly extruded/Revolved and without junctions. No parts. Hierarchical elements are kept with hierarchy.<BR /> Property Mapping is default Ifc2x3 mapping (!)<BR /> Data Conversion: including classifications and only properties from mapping, but also quantities, space containment and boundaries.<BR /> <BR /> <BR /> I haven't produced any COBie files till now. I'm still learning myself. I have the book from Rob Jackson and also the Revit one, but so far there has been no COBie demand in our region.
