Viewer for C3D drawings

It has been a while since I have looked into this, but is there any way to use DWG Trueview to view C3D drawings? I don't think the object enablers will install for C3D... any way to back door it....?

 

Long story short.....we have users w/o C3D that may receive a C3D drawing from a client or partner and need to open/view it. They do not need to edit or even print.

 

TIA

Thanks. These machines already have DTV 2011, so I got the C3D OE for 2011 and it worked.

The OE download page ( http://www.autodesk.com/oe ) does not list DTV as a program that will accept the OE, but it does. Thanks again.

So which C3D OE did you install? There are 11 different ones for each version.

 

Thanks,

It may be easier to set Proxygraphics to 1 instead. Setting it to 1 will save a copy of the linework in the drawing that make up the Civil 3D linework. This will increase the file size though.
