A great innovative idea of ABVENT and KA-RA, synchronization between archicad and twinmotion 2018 on diferent workstations , Which allows the architect to view the project of his office and maintain the constant productive flow

Hi Tianxiao,

Do you know where I can download the ArchiCAD plug-in for Twinmotion 2018?

Hi,

It's okay. I just found the link relevant to the plug-in: https://twinmotion.abvent.com/en/downloads/

Hi,

In my opinion, Twinmotion 2018 looks like a new software from Abvent instead of the development of the previous version. We can't load the previous version in the newest one. Why?

Furthermore, there are so many materials, and features that lack in the newest version. I am very disappointed by this release.

Hi everyone,

Twinmotion 2018 new website, as well as the trial version, is now available for download!
To download the trial version: https://twinmotion.abvent.com/en/trial-version/
And to download the real-time synchro ARCHICAD plugin: https://twinmotion.abvent.com/en/downloads/

The trial version of Twinmotion 2018 is fully functional during 20 days. After the 20 days, it will pass to "demo version", which means you can always try Twinmotion, import your project and do visualizations in Twinmotion, but you won't have options to output or save.

Don't hesitate to share your experience!
Enjoy!

I would appreciate if I could save as a (*.fbx) file format on both Twinmotion versions 2016 and 2018 as allowed by ArchiCAD.

As you may know, we have changed completely our Engine and use Unreal Engine now for this new version. But unfortunately, we haven't managed to maintain the compatibility of the previous version's project to the new version.
