ArchiCAD plugin - Animation

Exporting animation from ArchiCAD is very simple, here we describe the process in a few steps:

 

  • First you have to make sure Maxwell Render Engine is the current ArchiCAD render engine. (You can set it inside the PhotoRendering Settings dialog.)

  • Start animation export (by clicking on Sun Study or Fly- Through)

  • In the upcoming dialog you have to change the Source from 3D Window to PhotoRendering Window. You can set other parameters as you wish.

 

  • Click on the Show button to start scene export.

 

  • After the plugin finishes exporting the animation frames it opens a dialog where you can set the render parameters for the animation render. Start animation render with the Render Animation button or click Cancel if you don't want to render the frames right now.
