One website I use that will save all of this time is RubySketch. All of what you have shown has already been done. Great Video thanks Eric, most AC users would realise the time involved in importing DWG of IFC products. You may like to know RubySketch is a library that uses actual Archicad models ( along with other formats). They are build in Archicad by qualified pros. They are parametric and all of the (BIM) information is all ready added.
Great video! Funny that I happen to be preparing a similar video! Now I can just focus on the one or two parts I wanted to write about and just link to this video for the rest! :)
Hello Eric, it's great pleasure to listen to you and follow your instruction but I have one problem which I can't solve. I use Archicad 17 and do the same what you presented taking the same files from the same website. when every steps is done there appears information that the polygone is degenerate in line ... in the 2d script in file ... and no more I can do in this file. I repeated it several times and don't know what wrong I do. Your help is much appreciated.
Great tutorial! really appreciate it. There is only one thing i am having trouble with. When i save the ifc object into a gsm file i can't open it in another project or to edit at all. Whenever i open the file i receive a (Cant find macro: IFC blabla, called at line 38 in the 2d script of file blabla.gsm. (system error-1) what does this mean? any help is appreciated!
In the video when you selected the tap there was something else also being selected, because that piece was unified to the tap, how do you separate them or tidy it up?
hello eric! I am trying to import a 3d dwg file on archicad and although i follow your steps i can't see it on 3d view. it is also very small in 2d view. what am i doing wrong? thank you
I got a message from Archicad 'no elements were created' and even though I still can proceed and save the object- once placed in archicad the object seems empty-there is nothing. Anyone knows why Archicad gave me the message?
Is it possible to remove gradients from the archicad created 3d objects? If you look at 11.09 where you can see all 3 sinks, the ifc object looks good, the morf one has gradients, and the gdl one has gradients and even some roughness at the front side.
Thanks for anwser. I met this lag in older versions of AC, with the profiler addon. And being converted to 3ds or atl, these gradients were still there. Im gonna try playing with polygons as you advise. Thanks.

I have a problem - I can select basic objects but I can not select imported object in floor plan... I can select it only in 3d window.
In the video when you selected the tap there was something else also being selected, because that piece was unified to the tap, how do you separate them or tidy it up?

ok, I found it, there is an option in conversion settings, wasn't ticked on, for archicad to convert solids to GDL objects ! :)
Thank you !
