I need to Export ArchiCAD into Navisworks, in NWC format?

I know there is an Add-on for this but I can't seem to find it.
Any suggestions.

Thank you,

I'd like to be able to do this as well.

Navisworks' web site <http://www.navisworks.com/support/file_formats/ch01s08.html> says it's possible "ArchiCAD can export to NavisWorks .nwc file format. JetStream does NOT have a direct reader for ArchiCAD files", but I can't find anything on Graphisoft's web site.

However it does look like .ifc files may now work - so perhaps this is another option?

If you have Navis on same seat as ArchiCAD, you can perform an export

refers

The IFC reader is an alternative, but then so are the .dwg, .dxf, and .dgn outputs. None will be as good as the Exporter route
