AC10 3D Explore Model Problem

Anonymous
Not applicable
I am really enjoying using the new 3D explore model tool. The 3D gaming type interface is very intuitive for me and has made it much easier to do walk throughs.

However, I have tried and failed to located a keyboard shortcut that enables me to switch from my assault rifle to either my grenade launcher or my shotgun in 3D explore mode. This is obviously most frustrating, and of course I am working on a deadline at the moment. Working with with my clients has been a bit embarrassing to say the least.

Is anyone else afflicted with this issue or is it just me? Am I missing something? I have looked through all of ArchiCAD 10's new settings and have found nothing...

Please see my attached image.

Your input would be most helpful.
Thanks.

I was hoping he will show up telling us that revit offers better shotting since version 5, plus some really interactive grenades that can blow up your entire office...

Nahhhh....Revit is more "peaceful" software. We aren't really into shooting things or blowing them up!

It only took 5 years for the original question to be finally answered.

As I recall there was an alpha version of the feature that included the gun barrel. Or maybe it was just a mockup by one of the developers. Good for a chuckle at the time.
