Hello
I’ve imported the file in Archicad to datasmith file and I can’t open it in twinmotion, as it says “missing files” but the window does not specify which files are missing. it already imported the file as I can see the layers in the right panel, but I can’t see any model.. I leave 2 pictures.

Hi! Thanks for sharing the details.

Please make sure that you have full read/write permissions for the folder where your original files and the exported Datasmith file are stored. Missing file errors often happen when Twinmotion can’t access linked textures or geometry due to permission or path issues.

Also, double-check the following:

  • That the exported Datasmith file and its associated *_Assets folder haven’t been moved or renamed after export.
  • That the file paths aren’t too long or stored on a network drive with limited access.
  • If you’re using cloud storage (like OneDrive or Dropbox), make sure the files are fully synced locally.

Kind regards

MC
