How to you create cladding of any sort using Archicad 19?

[Anonymous]

Hello,
I'm trying to install a cladding system on my model using some particular BIM objects, however It seems that I'm missing something important.

I made an account in BIM Objects and I tried following these tutorials

I can't get the building to get cladded in any way with one (or 1000) clicks.
Either I get to make a single panel, a panel grid or this: http://imgur.com/lYxUN6u
Also I am lacking the Design -> Design Extras -> Accessories -> Wall accessories option.

Do you guys have any experience using cladding? Am I missing something?

EDIT: It seems that these design extras are a plugin which I can't find anywhere.

Hey!

I've been trying all day to create a cladding in ArchiCAD 19. I watched some tutorials but it seems that I need a plugin called "accessories" which enables Design -> Design Extras -> Accessories -> Wall Accessories. The problem is that the plugin is no where to be found anymore.

I'm looking to make a ventilated facade with mineral wool.

Have a look in the HELP menu of Archicad and follow the 'Downloads' link.

If fact this link will take you straight there.

I have merged your posts so all the answers end up in one place as they are the same topic.

Thanks!

I managed to install the goodie, but I can't really find a proper cladding.

So the question stands. What do you guys use when creating cladding in ArchiCAD? 😃

Cadimage coverings.
I know its an add on, but it works & works well.

Yea, if you have $30 per month... xD

I usually use the common tools of archicad like walls, slabs, beams etc. and I got nice results.
I never tried cadimage coverings but I think is a good help.

Sadly, there's no such thing.

Could you please give me an example? How do you use them to create a cladding with the common tools? Profiled walls?
