Hello! I am currently trying to export a 3D model of a small room from Archicad to CATT-Acoustic, which only accepts DXF. or .OBJ file formats, but for some reason the 3D model is read as polylines rather than faces/singular surfaces and gives this wonky look. Here's what I'...

Hi everyone! I eventually figured out a solution--it's a bit more work than preferred, but if you're stubborn and in the same boat as me; here's what I did. I exported a DWG file from Archicad to AutoCAD and then I converted it all the elements to surfaces using the CONVTOSU...

Hi! I tried that in point 4) but because Blender is also a mesh-based program, it gave me a similiar triangulation result 

Yes, the problem is that when Archicad exports the 3D model, its exported as a mesh--and CATT is a program that reads/works with planar surfaces. I am trying to think of a program(s) to piggyback off of to easily convert the created model into simple planes.

When I tried opening the saved file in CATT, it was too warped and crashed the system.

I did that in 3), but the surfaces were still triangulated and warped to the extent where the CATT program crashed upon opening the file.
