Hi I try exporting Fusion 360 to 3 format: IGES, STEP and DWG files. After that I import to Rhino, but they do not keep Hierarchy (as layer) Reference file: https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/fusion-360/troubleshooting/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/Useable-file-formats-to-import-and-export-dat…

Hi Travis - When you import a STEP file into Rhino, it will come in as a block. Here you will find a script that turns that block into layers: [image] Explode block instances while keeping their original layers Rhino for Windows Hi Evan - if you un-block and then drag on…

It would be best here if you tell us what the goal is here in detail. What is the current state and type of model is coming from. And examples models help. The new information here about Fusuin, I would use FBX from Fusion to Rhino, then to Twinmotion. Or if the assembly is being exported as a ser…

Hi @wim 1/ I reupload 2 STEP file: 2 STEP files.rar (92.4 KB) There are v4 and v51. v51 is later version of design. 2/ I made 2 file 3DM because I think Rhino will be better understand 3DM file. They will recognize the same layer name between 2 file 3DM. But It’s not works. 3/ As I mention, th…

Hi @scottd 1/ I try modeling a small office in Fusion 360 then bring it into Twinmotion. I try bring model to Rhino because there are direct link plugin Twinmotion. 2/ In Fusion 360, I can export FBX file, then import direct to Twinmotion. However FBX is Mesh. I try finding better format and workf…

The type of models from Fusions. Are they furniture and cars? Or is is it a building? Twinmotion treats each quite differently. So understanding that will impact the workflow. Twinmotion only deals with meshes. That is why FBX is the closest format to its ultimate final form in Twinmotion. What…

Hi Travis - [image] travis.designer.vn: It will be consider as new project. I see that here, yes. When “Project 10 - 4STECH Office v4.STEP” is imported and exploded to layers, a top level Project 10 - 4STECH Office v4 layer is created and all other layers are created as sub-layers of this on…

Hi @scottd 2/ [quote=“scottd, post:21, topic:104068”] Twinmotion only deals with meshes. That is why FBX is the closest format to its ultimate final form in Twinmotion. [/quote] Does Rhino convert model to Mesh then link it to Twinmotion? 3/ I use Rhino 6 4/ I intent to update the whole Assemb…

Agreed, Fusion is a strange thing. Yes, Rhino converts to a mesh when exporting to Twinmotion. Twinmotion is based on Unreal. The meshes allow the Game engines to optimize for speed, by completely re-orginizing the model. Using Fusion for furniture > Rhino > Twinmotion Asset creation might work.…

@travis.designer.vn - Are these modular pre-constructed units that are to be stacked? Is the internal contents of each modular container custom?

[image] scottd: you can export the whole scene and use Rhino to clean up the model for export to Twinmotion. But then there are no automatic updates from Fusion > Rhino > Twinmotion. Totally agree with you. Import Furniture (FBX) direct into Twinmotion is better workflow because there are fea…
