Twinmotion 2020 Crack With Product Key
Sheron Kernan
Im using Sketchup Pro 2019 on a Mac and get the error:
OpenGL not Supported
You must have a Metal compatible graphics card and be running Mac OS X 10.11.6 or later to launch this process.
Any ideas or does it not work with Mac?
Hi , We are loving Twinmotion with VW22 but we are finding that whenever we change something in our VW model , hit the direct link button and then go back to Twinmotion , that the materials have been reset to the way they were when we imported them. For example the glass of our building comes into Twinmotion with the material name given in VW. I then go to drop a Twinmotion standard two sided glass onto the VW material swatch. this works fine until I go back to VW to change some geometry (change anything in fact) and when I hit direct link again the materials are all back to the way they were when I imported. Thanks A
Hi, I'm running VW Landmark 2022 sp 2 and Twinmotion 2022.1 and I'm having an issue with plant substitutions in Twinmotion being overwritten when the VW direct link synchronization is executed. The plant substitution is removed and the plants revert back to the image props from VW. The Direct Link Settings in Twinmotion is set to Enable Substitution. Does anyone know how to prevent this from happening? Thanks.
@Dave Donley I'm still encountering this bug when using the Datasmith Direct link Synchronize tool with Vectorworks 2022 SP2.1 and Twinmotion 2022.1 (Windows 10 64-bit). Sometimes the material substitutions stick for a few updates, but most of the time they revert to their original state.
I'm not certain, but it seems to happen most frequently when adding new textures or objects to the VW file. Deleting or moving existing objects doesn't seem to cause the materials to lose their substitutions.
Sadly I am also getting the same issue with materials reverting back to the Vectorworks settings and overwriting the ones I had spent time and effort getting right in Twinmotion. I've tried using an export option (overwriting the previous linked file) and the direct link, and the same issue keeps happening. Very frustrating - Twinmotion is a great piece of software but this issue keeps setting me back and is making me question whether it's worth persevering with.
-Using the substitution check box seems to solve most material problems. I find that there is better luck with materials that have an image file in channels rather than shaders, so even for colors I have used color block .pngs.
And....back again. New project and TM resets the textures each time. Specifically the reflection settings, glow settings and sometimes even the texture replacement. I have substitution on, still not working.
With Vectorworks Service Pack 3 (shipping next month) the Datasmith Direct Link tool will be a true automatic sync, where you don't have to press the Sync button as much. There are many internal improvements as well in Service Pack 3 for this tool, and we think many of the issues you mention here should be improved.
I can share a link to Vectorworks 2022 Service Pack 3 so you can try out the new version and verify if it helps the issues you have been enumerating here. Let me know with a direct message and I will share the link with you. There are two more beta releases schedule for this before it ships next month. We are finishing up final safe changes.
There are cases where Twinmotion material overrides will be lost with certain operations done in the Vectorworks model, and these cases will remain. One case is if you change a plug-in object parameter, all objects are deleted first and then the plug-in script is run to create new geometry. The information to link the object with the material override is lost in that case. Another case is if you resize or do other operations to walls this is like recreating the wall sub-geometry which also breaks the link to material overrides. And there are other cases. Where we can, we are maintaining persistence so that material overrides don't change.

I think if you choose collapse by material it will limit you to only being able to override all objects that use the same material at once rather than separately per-object. Collapse by material should be faster for realtime performance, although I haven't noticed a difference in speed between the two.
I know there's some new feature for an app called Enscape (or something like that) but it requires yet ANOTHER SUBSCRIPTION purchase. I'm not interested in trying to learn another software that may or may not be supported in future versions of Archicad. I'm just starting to like Twinmotion.
If you "must" use Twinmotion with Archicad 26 right now, I would suggest exporting to Sketchup format from Archicad's 3D window. Then, you could import that into TM. If you were to update your Archicad model, resave it to SKP with the same name, and in Twinmotion, refresh the import. Your material assignments previously done in Twinmotion will stick.
Unfortunately the options are limited. Not only because we need to wait on a translator from Epic, but also because Graphisoft has chosen not to develop their own FBX export plugin, like "every. other. major. 3D program" does. All lobbying in the past year to Graphisoft in this regard has fallen on deaf ears as they ignore our requests, and in some cases, challenge us as to why we need this or that, when it is obvious.
Good luck!
The problem is, that file format isn't an option from Save As... in the 3D window. I can only assume it will be in a future release of AC26, and this will be our option for working with Twinmotion. I'm guessing, of course.
Grapisoft stoped hearing it's costumers about 4 versions ago.
And all points out that they are heading to "subscription only"/hostage situation with their clients.
Even LBP and Param-O requires SSA/Archiplus subscription... They want us to PAY EXTRA to fix the smallest and lamest object library in the category... for them.
I am already heading out. Stoped all subscriptions, canceled any upgrade plans, no training for any partner/trainee/etc and currently studing my choices in the field.
I'm also really tired of the "Structural" and "MEP" features that highlight the updates also. It's ARCHI-CAD, not STRUCTURE-CAD or MECHANICAL-CAD. We need better ARCHITECTURAL tools. The last three upgrades have been s**t!
You are welcome Gianluca. I had to go through that myself first couple of times I used TM. BTW I have had better luck using the Direct Link after starting out with the FBX export. Took a bit of head scratching there but it is worth the time to learn to use as well. Here is a Rhino model of mine that took maybe 5 \minutes to configure in TM after using the Direct Link function. I circled the Two Sided option in red and it is buried sort of deep in the UI.
Twinmotion: Open the library panel by opening the little triangle in the left upper corner. Select materials, then drag the material to the selected area. If you hover over the materials,you should get a preview. After adding the material,you can use scale to scale the material. You can also change the reflection, color, glow etc.
Landscape: if you want to edit the landscape, you can drag the the preffered landscape into the model. You can sculpt the terrain to your liking. 'Sculpt terrain' is visible in the box on the bottom of the screen.
Vegetation: Placing directly: You can drag trees to selected areas to create the wanted effect. Scattering trees (fast forest): Select context -> vegetation paint. Drop different kinds of vegetation to the surface.Then select the paint brush and start painting.
Animated objects: under objects you can add doors that open automatically when walking through them. You can also add water and running water. This is also by dragging them to the right spot. You can also add static humans under 'characters'.
Walking people: Go to 'context' -> 'paths' -> 'character path'. Select the pen tool, set several dots on your design. Make sure you make a closed circle. Then you'll see walking people in your design.
