ArchiCAD to MagiCAD problems

Anonymous · ‎2008-04-10

We are currently installing ventilation and stuff in our building.

First we saved our ArchiCAD file as a IFC 2X3, then imported it in "AutoCAD Architecture 2008" so we got the *.dwg files you use in MagiCAD.

Here is the problem that many of the walls are missing.

Was wondering if any could help me out?

If iit's a 3D DWG file you want, have you tried exporting (Save as dwg) from the 3D view (frontmost/active)?

Trying to save the ArchiCAD file as a dwg when in 3D view atm.
But when i tryed to load the IFC file in AutoCAD it just started to convert them into dwg right away.

I was wondering if it might help to change Floor plan cut plane? If that has any effect on the IFC file.

Tryed opening the file i converted directly from Archicad in MagiCAD. Its a mess, now it draw a line from every single corner of the building to all other corners.

When you are in 3D view in ArchiCAD you cant save as IFC file, so I'm kinda lost now.
