Architecture Model

[Archiman86]

Hey guys/gals,

I am currently working on an architecture project and I have a 3d model that I created in Revit Architecture 2008. I was just wondering if it was possible to render it is indigo. I was thinking either importing it into 3ds max and then out of there into indigo..but i have never used 3ds max in my life. I have used blender and blendigo so i was thinking about importing it into there...any suggestions?

I have done that final step you mention with success, maybe some tweaking, but nothing serious. Yes try to export to a simple 3DS model and import it to blender, there you can set up all your materials and the scene.

Good Luck!

I've had pretty good success going to sketchup via dwg from RA 2008 and then to Indigo. You have to do your materials in sketchup since it won't take the Revit ones, but the ones I've done haven't taken that long...
