Back Are there any architectural CAD file formats which can import directly into Carrara 4?
I though DXF and DWG could be generated in 2D CAD packages and imported into Carrara and this was converted using some form of metadata, but it looks like DXF can either be 2D or 3D. I imported a 2D DXF into Carrara 3 and all the line segments were separated, so I couldn't just extrude the walls! I ended up joining all the points in Illustrator and re- importing each floor.
Any tips on better ways to do this would be very much appreciated (I checked out some specific architectural plug-ins, but guidance on DXF import would help me understand where I've been going wrong).
Cheers,
Nigel
