I've actually followed these steps but the model does not appear in twin motion after syncronization? What could be the problem. I'm using Archicad 26 and twinmotion 21
I used to work at 24 Archicade. Now I'm at 26. Now I can't install the Datasmith export plugin for Archicad 26. It says that the new version is already installed. And I can't uninstall it either - it's not in the system or in Windows registry. Please, !!!!HELP!!!! :)
разработчик архикад: "А что если в новой версии программы убрать возможность сохранения FBX, которая была и хорошо работала в предыдущих версиях?" разработчик твинмоушен: "Супер! Тогда я еще коннектор спрячу так, что бы его никто не нашел, а что бы показать что мы "работаем" запишу туториал на ютуб"
So where do you now set the minimum size for objects to be exported with Datasmith? I have objects in the size of 0.02-0.05 m which are important to me, however, are not included upon export.
Finally ! someone has explained it the ACTUAL way it works. The Twinmotion / UE documentation is a mess and out of date... They don't tell you the actual steps.
As usual with this type of thing it doesn't open anything like on the video. The file doesn't download the same way and the computer says there is no program to open the application.
How do you open an older Twinmotion fIle (2021.1 & Archicad22) to Archicad25 & Twinmotion 2021.1.4 ? Instead of updating my older file when opening the new twinmotion.. it duplicates my work.. I have two buildings : the old one with all the modification and the new one with nothing on it.. see what I mean or not ? Thank you!
That's the exact same issue I'm having! Except I'm only upgrading from AC24 to AC25. Did you resolve the issue? I'm getting a duplicate model that is placed in a different location / rotation. The textures don't look right either. I'm starting to regret upgrading to AC25 on this particular project :( I should have known that there would be issues with Twinmotion!
@@chriskeentechnician I have been blocked ever since.. and it looks like TM just don't care to explain how the new infrastructure works.. or should work since they fucked up something. The only solution unfortunately is to start all over again, or try Lumion 12 instead.
Hi Leonard, sorry for the delay getting back to you. Are you still experiencing the same issue? If so, we'd recommend you open a support ticket via the Twinmotion support center, our support team will assist you. It is the official channel for Twinmotion technical support twinmotionhelp.epicgames.com/s
this is the most rubbish add on in history. It doesn't even work on archiCAD 26 and when you use the datasmith export file it drops the 3D model 10km away from the origin point. If i cant solve this i will move to Endscape as it has made ArchiCAD and twinmotion totally incompatible.
Whenever reopening the twinmotion file that has the Archicad project imported and then synchronizing it, all applied twinmotion materials and vegetation scatters are lost and have to be reapplied. How to avoid that?
Hi, the scattered or painted vegetation is attached to geometries. So when the geometries are changed due to resynchronization, the vegetation will be lost. One workaround is to import the terrain separately from the rest of the model and make sure to not change it anymore. However, it's not normal to lose materials.

The data smith exporter plugin for archicad on MAC is not working. I'm using Twinmotion's directions but its not working.
it doesn't work for me. I'm doing it step by step and I have nothing on twinmotion... (Archicad 25 EDU).
Was helpful thank you. I just wished we had a full data smith tab like we had with direct link before
I installed the data smith exporter bit at the end of the installation it never shows which of the ArchiCAD on my laptop
Why’d they have to complicate this process the previous way of direct linking Archicad projects to Twinmotion was way easier and faster.
Agree
I've actually followed these steps but the model does not appear in twin motion after syncronization? What could be the problem. I'm using Archicad 26 and twinmotion 21
mine was invisible after the direct link. why?
There is no datasmith option here in archicad 27
I used to work at 24 Archicade. Now I'm at 26.
Now I can't install the Datasmith export plugin for Archicad 26. It says that the new version is already installed. And I can't uninstall it either - it's not in the system or in Windows registry.
Please, !!!!HELP!!!! :)

У меня такая же проблема( мой 26 Архикад не показывает кнопку "Datasmith" в Палитрах, сохранить как Fbx тоже нельзя...

You know this is the actual TM youtube account right?

Thanks, this was very helpful.
how beneficial is this from the Direct Link, because it seems to me like this takes a much longer route in all honesty

super helpful, thanks
Please how don't resolve it
Thank You.
💯💯💯
and to Mac?
Goodbye Twinmotion. Terrible update
