Hi, very informative video btw. Just wondering if you know if you can export STL or OBJs from a 3D scanner and be able to scale inside revit to demonstrate what it would look like in a building that was made.
Hey@@TheRevitKid , thanks for the quick response! just found it became interesting, as current, I have point cloud model as built , I convert it as DXF(nest in generic family) into Revit, but soon, realize the DXF mesh can not modified in Revit, no idea how difficult convert the DXF into solid? thanks advanced!
Amazing stream learned a lot of stuff. I was wondering, can I assign material to the obj file and use it as a family? I wanted to create a classical ornament in blender and use it in Revit as a family(concrete mold).
Do you have any idea how the arquitree site convert to RFA yours models? So far, I think that they are better at this type of conversion, and they do it before Revit 2023. Thanks!
Can Revit hollow out the model? Or is it better to do in Blender? I just want to have the outer shell of the model, but haven't found a way to do it effectively, and what program is simple and best to use.
Hello friend, excellent video, a consultation there will be a course where the export of blender or 3dmax to revit objects in high quality, and editable, it would be excellent if you make a step-by-step video of that topic of exporting objects to revit from blender and of 3dmax. if there is a course how much is the cost, thank you very much in advance
@@TheRevitKid one more query in revit 2023 there is the possibility of importing objects from Zbrush, or 3DMAX, in object format, or you have to do other steps before importing to revit
@@TheRevitKid Thanks for the answer. No it isn't pinned. I can move it, but I cannot move it with precision (it didn't snap to imported geometry). I have enabled all selection setting.
@TheRevitKid for example I cannot make dimention with imported OBJ (either imported directly to Revit project or imported to separated Revit familiy and imported it to project).
This is episode 85!!! haha! I took a small break in the summer for the "live" episodes... here are ALL of the live shows - ua-cam.com/play/PLYwAldjdFhtzhB-J0lrAV37KQ8Z04Jbxu.html
thank you very much I've been searching for this for a long time!
Cheers! No problem!!

@@ethankang4068 yes…. 100%
@@TheRevitKidDo you know of any videos of how I could do this? Having a hard time scaling it
@@ethankang4068 scale it in a program like Blender before bringing it into Revit
that will be great if you also discussed how to modify or void cut the mesh in Revit too, as its important part of being a Revit-able model.
You can modify or void cut the mesh in Revit… you can do that in the authoring tool and just refresh it in Revit

YeS… exactly how I showed you just in the family environment
Thank you for the tips.. Btw i don't know i felt like I'm watching Mohamed Salah explaining the tutorial 😅❤️.. Looks like him man
As a Manchester United fan I am not too pleased about that comparison 😎
Amazing, thank you
Cheers! Thanks for watching!
Excelente, felicitaciones.
Cheers!

You cannot do any editing of the mesh object in Revit… Its just an import. So, yes, Blender would work.
Excellent, very useful! Thanks for share
Cheers!!
BlenderBim is also cool and its possible to make a pipeline where you can directly get a revit model into blender with materials.
I have been keeping my eye on Blender BIM 🤐😜

I do not have a course like that. Sorry!!

Seriously? Zero comments? Some great stuff in here.
Give us a Blender tutorial man.
Haha thanks man! I am by no means a blender expert but I can share what I know!!! “Blender for Revit users” might be more like it. 😂
What if there is no material asigned to the in place mass dxf file I am bringing in? Is there a way to apply a material to it?
Some import formats aren’t as conducive as others… that was kind of the point of the entire episode ;) … try other formats other than DXF.
When i go to Link Cad, i dont have the option to import an .obj file. Any help?
You have to change the file type … it defaults to “.dwg”… Flip it to .obj…
@@TheRevitKid even if i choose "all types" it doesnt apper
@@marcodaniel7803 then you don’t have an obj file or you’re looking in the wrong folder? Lol
@@TheRevitKidi only have this options:
dwg, dwf,sat ,dgn, skp.
I have search some videos and they only have those options too
@@marcodaniel7803 oh, you’re probably on an older version of Revit that doesn’t not have OBJ as an option out of the box.
Can You snap to imported model? I try import obj file and I cannot snap to this mesh.
Is the object pinned? Try un-pinning it or checking your selection settings at the bottom right.
@@TheRevitKid Thanks for the answer. No it isn't pinned. I can move it, but I cannot move it with precision (it didn't snap to imported geometry). I have enabled all selection setting.
@TheRevitKid for example I cannot make dimention with imported OBJ (either imported directly to Revit project or imported to separated Revit familiy and imported it to project).
Did you quit making these episodes regularly? I haven’t seen one in awhile.

Sir how to reduce the polygon count in Revit Sir...
You cannot… you can reduce poly count in blender of the mesh before loading it into Revit.
@@TheRevitKid Thanks a lot Sir...
