Converting to 3d Processing Elements

[Anonymous]

I did a mesh of a site but when i go to 3d mode it takes hours and hours to process the elements.
I can`t visualise the mesh, neither export to 3ds or dwg until the 3d mode is complete..
I even tried too finish the hardware acceleration of my nvidia... but it still the same...
Does anyone knows a way too make it faster?? or to export the mesh without opening the 3d mode of archicad?

Thanks

This is usually an user or library error. Use the marquee to limit what you want to see in 3d to try and find the problem. Also without knowing more information it is difficult to diagnose the problem. It could be that you have too many polygons in your project, modeled site elevations at 3" increments or you have modeled half of France including the Pirenees. Also I am assuming that you have a good enough computer with Dual core processors, +4Gb ram, a 512Mb Graphic Card with the latest drivers, running AC12 with the latest patches.
