Archicad 18 - BIM Server Setup - How to?

[rob2218]

There's a fellow in another part of California whom he'd like to setup the BIMserver on his Mac.
We are both on the latest Build of Archicad 18.
He will be hosting the projects and I will be tapping in remotely to work on them.

Is there any good "video" which shows how best to setup the BIMServer for Archicad 18?

This may be a good clip to start with:

It talks about BIMcloud but the BIM Server installation part is the same.

There are other clips in this playlist that talk about other parts of the BIM Server interface:

thanks so much Lasz.....will listen to vid and see if I can follow.
I understand that the BIMServer/BIMCloud functionality is completely "new" to AC18? where AC17 didn't have it like this?

[Laszlo Nagy]

The BIM Server existed since AC13.
BIMcloud is the new functionality:
