Archicad 16 64 bit full version manual#

The texture mapping need not be lost, even with a morph. There is a limitation in the morph conversion procedure such that the texture mapping of the Google Earth imagery is lost. Less fuss and quicker to my old school mind.

I just used them as a general guidleine for the judicious manual input of contours (ridges) on a new mesh. In this instance, it was a benefit that you can't snap to the contours that are displayed with the floor plan cut plane. Actually my target here was to produce a site mesh with contours using the 3d data from the GE import. To get lines from the Morph that can be pasted into the 2D Plan for contour plans (rather than tracing over the Floor Plan Cut Plane, which does not have snap points). Instead, the geolocate dialogin SU communicates directly with Googles servers. The new thing in SU 8 is that you do not open the GE window and navigate there for the cooperative capture between SU and GE as in earlier versions of SU.

PS Again: all of these things are automatic on 32 bit Windows systems, but for Macs and 64 bit Windows systems, the extra step of using the free version of SketchUp 8 (or whatever Pro version you might have) is required. Let me know if a step by step with screenshots - maybe on the Wiki - would be helpful. Strangely, the default parameters for that object are to NOT show the terrain, so you need to check the box to show terrain - and then set Terrain Type to 'Elevated' (default for some odd reason is flat).ДЄttached screenshot of AC 3D window after Sketchup capture, save, merge, and editing params to show terrain.

The merge of an SKP model file creates an embedded object. I saved that as a SKP file, then Merged that skp file into the AC project. Terrain import on Mac / 64 bit Windows: Using the free Sketchup 8, I was able to capture a desired rectangular area that was brought into the SU model. I was able to export the model back to GE - other than the rotation bug noted below with project north being ignored. (Using the instructions to save the placemark elevation as 'absolute' has an issue on the GE side that it exports 0 as the elevation - so I manually entered the elevation shown in the GE window for the location.) On Mac / 64 bit Windows, this required saving as KMZ from GE, and Merging the saved KMZ file into the model file.

I was able to bring in single placemarks and polygon placemarks saved as KMZ from Google Earth just fine into AC. All seems fine for me - given that 64 bit Windows (and Mac) has limitations. Let me know what parts didn't seem to work as expected. Well, following the instructions on the newly released mac kmz import add-on, all i get in Archicad is a white rectangle, so thanks for the advice on using SketchUp, but 'no!'.Д¬an you review the instructions for the new Add-on and let me know how you do?
