Can't render on Artlantis Render v1.1.0.12 from AC13

[Anonymous]

Hi, I have Artlantis Render v1.1.0.12, and I'm trying to find an export add-on for ArchiCAD 13 but I can't. Any ideas?

There is none. Other than upgrading, your options are to save in some other 3D format - eg, 3DS - and assign all materials manually in Artlantis 1, or to back-save to ArchiCAD 10, the last version capable of saving in Artlantis 1 format.

The plug-ins are developed by Abvent, with updates on their web site, but also bundled for our convenience by Graphisoft. Any questions about the add-ons, why they no longer support version 1, etc belong on the Abent Artlantis import plug-in forum:

Sorry there is nothing easy. No problem with versions 2 and 3 of course, but the upgrade specials that Abvent offered to 1 and earlier users have expired as far as I know.

Cheers,
Karl

PS Do note that there is a 1.2.6 version download on the Abvent web site. I cannot remember if that was a free upgrade for 1.0 / 1.1 users.

Thank you!

We are in the same boat where we now have a redundant Artlantis Studio 1 We only had it for 2 year before it became redundant.

I'm reluctant to have to update software just to be able to read a newer format.
Perhaps GS should have included a translator for it or even better forced Abvent to make it available. Imaging if GS decided not to include a dwg translator.
