Trouble importing to algor

[drunkmunky]

Hey guys/gals

I have an entire site model that i've created in Autodesk Autocad 2009. I've tried several times to import the file into algor but only one mass out of the many show up. How Can I get the entire model, with multiple masses, to show up so that I can utilize algor's cfd function?

Thanks

Edit: Sorry. I did not know that Algor does not accept Mass Element's as solids. I have since converted my work to 3d solid format and at the moment, 132 items are importing.

Thanks

Did you try to export it to a STEP file, and then opening the step file in Algor?

I've found that alot of my Inventor assemblies need to be exported to STEP files instead of using the add-in mesh function in Inventor.

The STEP file just works better.

Hi Billy,

Do you mind uploading the AutoCAD file such that I can help take a look? Or you may email me at jacob-liminDOTxuATautodeskDOTcom.
