Fabulous! Many thanks Lloyd, Petru and all. Much more of this, please.

[@BIMvoice]

Great stuff John, happy you found this useful!

[@Jo-re2ye]

I have to start from scratch. Have to go measure everything on-site. I wonder if there are easy ways to add electric symbols and wiring to this workflow.

[@BIMvoice]

I think it is. I’ll ask Lloyd.

[@marcuswagner8987]

When i put the .dxf it it is on a scale, how to scale all to a factor of 0.1?

[@BIMvoice]

Yes, that should be straightforward: press S and then type 0.1 and then press Enter. It should do the trick.

[@NicholasCoffee]

Coming from stateside this is a process I'm really interested in! Would love to see the same from PDF even a vector pdf

[@sprichaelpaudel2955]

Great . Love to see more.

[@BIMvoice]

More to come. Join BiMvoice email list to find out about what’s happening

[@fernandofert9960]

The tumbnails don't let us see the menus.

[@BIMvoice]

Yeah, that's true. I'm really sorry for this. It won't happen in the future again, because I disabled that from the recording settings. So future livestreams will be recorded properly.

[@HrPedrosak]

Can I convert a building I made in Blender to ifc. Can I convert every blender object to an ifc object without making the building from scratch in BlenderBiM? Just starting out with ifc work. Answer would be much appreciated. Don't want to make two buildings, one Blender and one ifc version (double work)

[@BIMvoice]

You can, but I’m not sure is the best option. You can try and see for yourself how it works when you assign an IfC class to each object…

[@HrPedrosak]

@@BIMvoice Takk for svar👍 Jg trenger fotorealisme. IFC-bygg er ikke så fotorealistiske, eller tar jeg feil...?

[@BIMvoice]

@@HrPedrosak For fotorealistiske modeller da trenger du ikke IFC. For det kan du bruke vanilla Blender, eller andre programvarer som finnes for visualisering.

[@marcuswagner8987]

38:40 Yes, here in Brazil we get a lot of CAD files, when is Ifc is like 300MB 2x3IFC format. And the models is completely a mess. Always have to make the model again, the right way.

[@BIMvoice]

I feel your pain. That’s why I do all these efforts to educate more people understanding better IfC.
