I get no source found message in Twinmotion, and no connection in ArchiCAD. So i thought i'd try to export the Twinmotion file. When i import into Twinmotion only the lights show up. In ArchiCAD i opened the Datasmith Messages and there is a large list of errors. Not sure what's happening. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Hi ,
I recommend doing a complete re-install of the Datasmith plugin, uninstalling your currently installed version and downloading the latest version (5.0.3v2) from the Twinmotion Datasmith Exporter plugin for Archicad page (How to Install & Uninstall Datasmith Plugin for Archicad). If the issue persists after a re-install, please let me know and share screenshots of any error messages you see inside Archicad.
Best,

Great! That worked! I know I did that before, but when I uninstalled the Datasmith Exporter, the installed version was 5.1. Everything works now.
Glad to hear that worked.
The 5.1 version of the plugin actually isn't compatible with Twinmotion yet, since it uses Unreal Engine 5.1 features and Twinmotion is only on UE 5.0.3, and that explains why those issues were occurring.
We'll be updating to UE 5.1 soon, so that plugin should be usable then. We'll update our plugin pages once that update becomes available.
Best,
Raghib
Thank you.
Have a great week.
