Import fbx file in revit

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I'm pretty new in revit. I have fbx that created from infraworks, and need to open it in naviswork.

How I can open fbx file in revit? To which format file I should convert so Revit can open the fbx file? I need to assign reference coordinate to fbx file before I open in navisworks.

Thanks
Dana

Here is another workaround: use BenderBIM and BlenderGIS (Open Source) to create and manipulate FBX. Assign the .fbx files afterwards in Autodesk Navisworks (fbx still supported) Then can use the .nwd or .nwc in other Autodesk software like Revit and AutoCad. Maybe they forgot to remove it from Navisworks, so i don't hope to wake them up and this wayaround will stay a while..

What is naviswork?

@martinbrownomo Navisworks is a model review and coordination software that is used for clash detection in models.

Doesnt actually answer the question, what if the user needs to use an FBX model in Revit, and has no access to 3DS Max, or Navisworks for that reason....thats like going to the doctor with a foot ache, and the doctor says that chopping off the foot will solve the issue, rather than treating the ache

I really wish Autodesk would open up far more functionality in Revit products, especially the use of PBR materials associated with fbx files or if they want to stay with OBJ files we really need to bring in the photogrammetry similar to what 3ds Max does.
