Archicad exports the model in the Artlantis file format through its dedicated plug-ins. You can transfer the geometry, textures, perspective cameras, the sun, lights, and layers. The Artlantis export is installed with Archicad versions 20 through 27 by default. Starting with Archicad 28, it is available for download and installation on-demand.
Add-on updates available for download
The Artlantis export add-ons are installed with Archicad versions 20 through 27 by default.
Starting with Archicad 20, new versions of the updated add-ons are installed with the relevant Archicad updates. For earlier versions (and from Archicad 28), the updated add-ons are available for download and must be installed on demand. The following add-ons support and automatically recognize English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Russian, Japanese, and Greek operating systems. If you install it on any other language system, it will run in English. The installer runs in English on every operating system, independently from the regional and language settings.
Supported language versions: INT, FRA, GER, ITA, SPA, RUS, JPN
How does the export add-on work?
To export the Archicad BIM model, follow these simple steps:
-
Activate a 3D View in Archicad.
-
Select the File / Save as … command in Archicad. The Save 3D dialog window appears.
-
Set the file name and path, select the “Artlantis” file format, and click “Save.”
-
Set the export parameters in the export dialog and click “Export.”
As a result, you will have an Artlantis file exported with the name and path previously defined.
Install instructions for versions before Archicad 20
From Artlantis 6.5 and onwards, an installer handles the installation of the relevant files.
For versions earlier than Artlantis 6.5, place the downloaded .apx and .dll files in the corresponding locations in the Archicad folder described below:
-
Place the ArtlantisRender-Studio_6(5)_Out.apx file in the GRAPHISOFT/Archicad/Add-Ons/Import-Export folder.
-
Only on Windows: place the CAtl6(5)_64.dll file in the GRAPHISOFT/Archicad root folder
