"Please help me find a specific library part"

Anonymous — Sat, 22 Oct 2005 13:23:09 GMT

I am currently doing a project on a type 1 Volkswagen Beetle. I would really appreciate it if anyone could suggest where to find it as an add-on library part for the Archi-CAD programme. All i can seem to find is the New type VW Beetle.

Thank you

Are you working in ArchiCad ? If so, this is the part...

Cheers,

What you want is a Library Part, not an Add-On. (Add-ons add new program functionality to ArchiCAD.)

Always use the "Search" function here first ...

I couldn't find the Studio Arkada object just now ... someone?

Perhaps what you want can be purchased here (alfaville):

Almost any 3D object can be brought into ArchiCAD as a library part, too - dwg, 3ds, etc.

Google for: "volkswagen beetle" 3ds free model

Move the 3dsin add-on from your Goodies folder into your Add Ons folder, and then you can open the 3DS from the Extras menu, converting it to a GDL object. (Search the forums to find out more about doing this.)
