I posted this on the graphisoft forums and I know some Epic devs are on here so I am posting here as well. I have some questions regarding the twinmotion plugin process around each year’s ArchiCAD release.
Who is responsible for creating the plugin? Is this wholly on Epic’s plate or on Graphisoft’s?
Does Epic have a developer connection to Graphisoft? Do they receive pre-release versions of AC? Or are the having to wait for the public release?
What is the cause of the hold-up every. single. year. with the ArchiCAD plugin?
This product was pitched by both companies as a trusted solution for realtime visualization in ArchiCAD and yet it seems the two teams do not speak to one another at all? We’re seeing all other supported software with twinmotion connection receiving updated plugins with their releases within weeks of launch and yet for ArchiCAD we see an updated plugin 6+ months on average after release.
The currently situation is untenable and confusing, when I’ve posed this question to either company I have been met with shrugs and finger pointing.
I understand that the partnership is over but the current situation appears to be antagonistic and is actively harming the customer base of both products.
