Rounded corners in almost entire 3D model.

Hello everybody,

 

I have follwoing question to Revit Pros, namely I have been using this softawre for a long time. Now I have an issue which can't be solved for a quick. Another words I'm trying to find a way to make that as easy as possible. I'm makeing at the moment a 3D model of industrial building. Everything from scratch, there are only paper form blueprints and layouts. So far so good. My customer uses that model in Unreal Engine for VR visualisations. He is complaining now about sharp edges in entire 3D structure. He would like to have each one corner filled and rounded (1 - 3 [mm]), to achieve desired effect in VR mode. Each one element and object should have rounded corners --> concrete pillars, wall corners, etc. 

 

I would like to avoid modifications of allmost all used Revit famillies. It cost to much time. 

 

I was wandering if there is some kind of PlugIn or maybe an App which alouds such a small corner roundings.

 

There would be such an App or PlugIn perfect, which alouds to pick up this same objects and make their corners rounded.

 

Is there any chance to manage that problem somehow ???

 

With regards,

 

Thomas

Instead of modifying families of building elements to satisfy the needs of a rendering program, use graphics settings, either in Revit or in other programs to get the desired effect. Many programs have settings for showing or hiding edges, for smoothing sharp edges, for adding visual filters, etc.
