Hi Paul,

Can you fresh up my memory and tell me how to get an ArchiCAD scene to the standalone?
I thought I had done this before, but I do not recall (my gray brain fails I guess).
(It is not needed often to go to the standalone, but I want to do a turntable animation and that is easier in the Standalone ;-)

greetz,

EDITED: I think I got it.. I forgot to open the Render window first... :oops:

Open the Viewport then click the "Export" button on the Rendering tab.

Hi Jan,

How do you mean 'unsatisfying'..? I get the same render image from polugin or standalone when having exported ocs.
