Upgrade Datasmith for Archicad 27

Good afternoon. As of today, GraphiSOFT has updated their ArchiCAD software to version 27. In order for us to use it seamlessly with Twinmotion we will require you guys to update the Datasmith Plugin exporter for that version. I am not an expert, but given that the 3D pipeline of this software is exactly the same, I'd guess that it's basically just changing the version value from "26" to "27" and publish it for the new version.

Please can you do so? It would help us move our entire office to ArchiCAD 27 quicker (which we do need, the version has really useful updates).

quick reminder that ac27 has fbx export. so you could just use this until the plugin is out. most functionality should work fine.

We are perfectly aware of this, of course. The functionality is completely different, and given the detailed design with constant feedback that we do in our office, it's just not practical to use FBXs. I am not even aware if working with these files maintain things like grass, material changes and so on, but even if they do, it's added pain.

This architectural practice as well awaits Twinmotion<>Archicad Directlink to function seamlessly prior to the AC27 upgrade. 🙏

Are there any informations about the release for Archicad27? It would even be helpful for us if you can give us an approximate schedule for the relase ... Thanks!

Same here! I quote all the above said by others. Thanks!

We need this ASAP please

I have just purchased 3 licenses of Twinmotion. And we simply cannot use it in our office as we imagined... :( 1,5 month from AC27 release and still no plugin.

When?

Fausse publicité. Votre logiciel ne fonctionne pas avec Archicad!!!!! Je commence à regretter d'avoir acheter cette licence moi qui suit Twinmotion depuis le début.

ARCHICAD 27

ET

MAC SILICON

I have been a commercial user of the program since its first version.

I'v paid for the upgrade as soon as it appeared and I still can not fully use it due to the lack of a plugin for Archicada 27.

How much longer?

Why such silence from Epic Games? It is a more or less simple re-compile to create the plug-in for Archicad 27. It seems that they want all of us to move to Enscape or other visualization software rather than pay to stay with Twinmotion. This is ridiculous that it is now November and nobody at Epic has had an hour to compile the plug-in. I'm certainly not paying for 2023.2 (or later) until they do.

I agree. I sent an email to Epic Games and they directed me to this forum and yet no answers from Epic Games. I too have AC27 and clients awaiting updated Twinmotion. My computer crashed 2 weeks ago so I cannot even go to an earlier version of Archi-CAD as I updated all of my files to AC27 (and you apparently cannot move them backwards to 26 or earlier).

Seriously! What is going on? Can we please have the updated plugin? Or at least some sign that someone there is working on it?

Pathetic no update after 2 months....

Hi guys, very keen to hear about when the Datasmith exporter for AC 27 will be out, I've deployed AC 27 but really cant use it without Twinmotion, cheers

Finally it is released. Here

Woo hoo! In Epics defense, Graphisoft changes Archicad a lot every year. I'm sure it takes a bit of work to get the plugin working properly. It would be nice if Graphisoft gave them an advanced copy so they could try and coincide the release of both products. Happy the new version is finally here. It would help if Epic responded to give us some release target dates instead of remaining silent. This line of posts started out friendly enough but got grumpier as it progressed due to the lack of an Epic response.
