Presuming you did something in ArchiCAD:

Open the 3D window in a perspective view. Save As.

4.5 is ATL, not OPT

7 does not have export for 4.5, only 4. OPT/DB

get a hold of a previous art•lantis plug-in for archiCAD so that you can save as an 'OPT' file. then in the art•lantis 'Open' menu, enable the 'OPT' files? see attached . . .
