Hello, I just purchased the REVIT Plugin and am using 2018. When do you expect the plugin to support the newest REVIT version? Thx, Jason

Thank You! Awesome Plugin and the ORBX Export is worth the price of admission alone.

Hi Paul

Is there a way to update the revit materials transfer in Revit 2017? Similar to 2018 fix

No - this relies on the Revit 2018 SDK, so it is not possible to implement in the Revit 2017 version of the plugin.

Hi Paul

I have just installed revit 18.3 and the octane plugin doesnt bring in the revit materials into the plug in. I thought this was fixed in 18?

Is there a setting I am missing to switch?

FYI

Installed revit 18.3

Installed your plugin for 18

Opened file, no realistic material from 18 to octane plugin.

What am I missing?

many thanks in advance

Hi. I installed Service Release 2018.3 and was unable to reproduce this problem. Can you send me a simple scene which demonstrates this issue pls.

Thanks

paul

my apologies.........

They do come thru if I perform "reconvert all materials from revit"

The only thing is they loose the scaling. it reverts to 1 scale factor so we have re scale all images etc.

Is there a setting that needs to be switched?

cheers
