Help with door

I've created the attached door, but when I render it it looks very weird.

Please see attached files.

Thanks

I would just download Revit arched door families to Render until you can learn how model them properly yourself. In fact, you ought download and study them to learn how to model them. A number of manufacturers, such as Marvin, Pella and Jeld Wen, have arched door Revit families you can download directly from their web sites. Check them out.

Thank you for your message.

I went on their website and I didn't find any 3d models.

The only ones I found were just windows and in sketchup format.

I don't really want to model them, I just need one for my project.

Thanks

Hi @Szigeti.Eduard ,

there is a "Surface smoothing" control for the exporter and LiveSync settings.

Unfortunately, curves are always translated into plane surfaces.

This setting should solve your problem

Then what is the solution?

That your door has a round arch at the top and no jagged edges.

Or wasn't that your problem?

Yes, this was my problem, but I still need it rendered round.

There is no way around it, I couldn't find a BIM model.

In Revit looks good, but in Lumion not

How do you get your Revit model into Lumion? With the Lumion LiveSync Plugin or with an export?
