3Dstudio plugin

Good morning, I have a problem with the 3Dstudio plugin, I have installed it over and over again, in Italian, internationally etc etc but it has never appeared to be interoperable. I have archicad 26 and every time I open a new standard project. How can I solve the problem? Thank you

It looks like the add-ons are installed OK.

But are you saying you do not have the commands to run them in your menus?

 

If so, you will have to add them manually in your Work Environment.

There is (or was - not sure if it was fixed in an update) with 26, where if you install the goodies after you have rune Archicad, the commands will not be added to the menus.

 

So you either need to add them yourself, or re-install Archicad.

Don't start it.

Install the goodies.

Run the latest update and now start Archicad and the goodies commands will be in the menus.

You need to find the commands and then add them to your menus.

The problem is you need to know what commands to look for and where you want to put them.

There will be more than one command and possibly in different menus.

 

This image is from 22 (all I have open at the moment) and it is my menu structure - not the default.

I know it is a hassle, but I would just reinstall, add the goodies, update and then start Archicad and the menus should all be there.
