Datasmith plug-in not showing in Archicad 25

[rjc248]

I have installed the newest version of the unreal datasmith exporter in order to link Archicad project to twinmotion. Datasmith is not showing in Archicad window palettes as it should. What can I do?

Which version have you installed (5.0.3 or 5.1)? If you installed from this page, it is the wrong one: https://www.unrealengine.com/en-US/datasmith/plugins

You should be installing 5.0.3 from this page:

https://www.twinmotion.com/plugins/Archicad

This will probably change soon (a new TM preview version will be relased soon, so probably there'll be a new plugin as well), but for now please use the link from the twinmotion page and not the unreal one.

I have tried both, and neither one is working

do you see the plugin in your addon manager? could you provide some screenshots?
