The color of the layer won’t have any impact on the rendered view of the model in Revit. Therefore, I will create two separate layers and change their color so that I could clearly see whether all geometry is applied to my created layers later on. I’ve decided that in this my example I need to have two different materials to be applied on my model. The main goal is to have as many different layers as we would like to have different materials in the Revit model later. You can use any other software that can work with layers of the model and export it to *.dwg (or *.dxf) format. Anyway, materials from other software are incompatible with Revit rendering engines. Remember, when you export model to *.dwg all textures will be lost, thus only geometry and layers will stay. The easiest way to do so is to convert model to *.dwg format and open it in AutoCAD. The main thing is to access layers of the 3D model. Here is a random bench, I found on some free library on the internet. There are various libraries on the internet with free or paid 3D models that can be used for visualizations. Secondly, let’s find a model we want to add to our Revit project.
In that case, we won’t overload our main project with all detailed geometry that will be used only for rendering purposes. However we can get quite good results using one of the suggested Revit rendering engines.įirst, I would suggest you to begin with a separate Revit project for our rendering and then just link the main project into it. Unfortunately those are usually not suitable for Autodesk® Revit® as they are mostly used by visualization professionals who use visualization software like 3ds Max, Cinema 4D, etc. Those might contain trees, grass, site elements, furniture, and so on. However we don’t always need to have exact details or spend time on them, therefore there are big model libraries on the internet for rendering purposes.
To get more realistic and high quality render requires a lot of time working on details. So please read and benefit from advices on how to work smarter without using Revit plugins.
Hope it can be useful not only for RevitCommunity readers but for our blog followers too. This time we are sharing our Tips&Tricks article that was published in RevitCommunity some time ago. ApAndrius Bialyj Easily Render Models in Revit® from Other Software Libraries
