Multiple Users in One File

Hi guys!

 

Is it possible for multiple users to work on the same project, at the same time?

If so, can you help me out? Do you have any idea how to do so?

Create a Teamwork project? Requires a full version of AC and a machine running BimCloud / BimServer.

like what @Lingwisyer say it will be under a Teamwork Project. 2 ways to do this the easiest way is to subscribe under BIM Cloud can work anywhere in the world as long as got internet connection.

Other way is you need to create a BIM Server where you will host your Project files and other users will access via teamwork in Archicad using ipaddress works locally (within the office or said location where your BIM Server is) but if you want to access remotely you should have a working VPN.

In the end what is your Objective?

If you have a highly segmented project, few other users, and decent communication with said other users, you may be able to manage just utilising Hotlinks for everything. Can quickly get out of hand though and you cannot really track who is doing what.

Hi @i_amelrosehuyaburton!

Just to complement the answers from Lingwisyer and Ryejuan, if you'd like to know more about Teamwork, please check this link. In this user guide you can learn the basics, functions, how to set it up, workflow etc. And in this video you can check how to install BIMcloud and start using Teamwork 😄

I hope this helps.

Cheers,
