Mirza Link Manager

Link your BIM/CAD model into your 3dsMax scenes.
Import and update models from Archicad, Revit, Sketchup, Rhino or Autocad and keep all work done on materials, modifiers and properties.

Models coming from your CAD/BIM program will be imported, cleaned and reorganized to result in one mesh per material. All materials, modifiers and changes on properties applied in 3dsMax will be subsequently reapplied to the corresponding meshes next time you import the model. Forest Pack object's distribution surfaces are also updated to the new corresponding meshes.
This is a fully working version with a trial period of 7 days.


Installation

Drag'n drop the .mzp file onto the 3dsMax viewport.
Access it through the menu Tools/Mirza Tools, or make a button in a toolbar.


Usage

  • Export from your BIM/CAD modeller in .fbx or .obj format, alternatively in .skp
  • In 3dsMax launch Mirza Link Manager from the menu Tools/Mirza Tools
  • Create a link: Select the program which it comes from, choose "Create", press "Import", browse to the file to be linked.
The geometry is now imported, recombined by materials and cleaned.
Work on the model: Apply materials, move insertion point, apply modifiers, change properties.
For updating the link: select the link to be updated in the dropdown list, press "Update" and browse to the new file.
All the changes are reapplied on the newly imported model.
You can have as many links as you wish from different modelers. (instructions for exporting are shown in the window)
NB: Archicad 21 ".obj" export is buggy. For linking a Archicad 21 model use .fbx or .skp(format 2015) instead of ".obj". Archicad 22's export works just fine.
