Twinmotion direct import with design options

What do you guys do when you have several options with the direct import?  Without having to save as the file for each option then add the import file in twinmotion.  That seems cumbersome. I should be able to import 3 options from one file.  Is there a way to do this that I might have overlooked? Or is there an easier method?

Curious about this too.... I found a Revit tutorial that essentially suggests the same - i.e., each option is a different FBX file while one can remain Direct Link. I am not sure Twinmotion has the support for options feature in Archicad or Revit.

That's the process we use - pull the consistent elements (such as the site) in as one main import, then import the various options separately. You can then use Twinmotion's View Sets to organise and visualise them. Takes time on initial export / import, but is then very quick to work with once they're in.
