Who can convert 2D Drawings into 3D Archicad ?

[Anonymous]

Just had a plan drawn using archicad and the I need someone to transfer the 3 x Townhouses that I have in 2D into 3D onto Archicad.

Does anyone know of anyone that does this and at what cost. I can supply a 2D dimension of the 2 story 3x townhouses and a 3D plan that was given to me on paper.

Total floor plan is approx 700m2

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Some very clever Russians developed a plug-in called Plan2model to do this. It was done for an earlier version of AC and not updated.

One more in a long line of plug-ins that surface here and then disappear. Japanese shadow study plug-in anyone?

If you could track down the software and an earlier copy of ArchiCAD, you might be able to bring the model forward into a newer version.

Clever, clever Russians. When I grow up I think I'd like to be an oligarch.

Plan2Model was ok; results were only as accurate as the dWG it was based on.
I recommend learning to use the program. With favorites set up properly constructing a model will be accurate, and can go quite quickly.
