Baltra Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 Does anyone have an simple solution for importing models from AutoCAD 2010 to Cinema 4d ... Other than converting solids to mesh and then saving the drawing as R-12 -DXF.... Any solution would be greatly appreciated .. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cad64 Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 I don't think so. Autocad doesn't have the 3DSOUT command anymore, so the only way I know would be to Import your CAD file into 3DS Max or Rhino and then Export out an .obj or .3ds file. If you just need to do this as a one time thing, you could download the trial version of either program. But if you need to do this on a regular basis, you might want to think about getting a copy of Rhino. It's relatively inexpensive compared to Autocad and Max.

Krztoff Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 There was some software I once used to convert dwg files, I think it was called Okino Polytrans, at the time I tried it I was really unexperienced with such tasks and I didn't have any success, but maybe it is worth checking out. However that is not a "simple" solution Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cad64 Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 No, you don't have to learn Max. Did you read my reply in your thread where you asked this same question? Did you try the dxf method I suggested? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
