Feature "including textures" for E-Transmit

Feature "including textures" for E-Transmit


I had a dream:
In the future it would be possible to collect all used texture maps into a single folder by using e-transmit.

please let this dream become true!

For sharing of the whole Revit Modell on different Workstation or for external use of the Modell this would be a great improvement!

hi

 

When to transfer a project from one Computer to another Computer , are missing Textures or CAD Link and ... .

 

Etransmit plugin solves some problems , But the transfer of texture is still having problems. Because must be collected Texture Manually paths.

 

If add a bootom save material with texture In the Material Editor dialog or Save As Archive tools such as the 3D MAX It is very efficient.

I was surprised to find out that material texture images are not gathered up by the E-transmit process. Instead, they must be "manually copied".

 

This is a bit ridiculous, since it would involve making a list of used materials and then going to hunt for them manually. Even if your firm has a proper material library, this is an inefficient and error-prone workflow/endeavor.

 

I would add an option to gather up the materials and CAD files when using E-transmit. To be more precise, everything that is on this list should have an option to be included.

We need ability to collect all project textures in order to transfer Revit project on multiple PCs and use custom made textures, stored in random (not Autodesk Shared material) folders. Ww also need this option in order to use the same textures in other Autodesk software (3ds max etc...)

Adobe video editing software have similar option - Collect files - all used files are collected and zipped in one file for easier transfer.

May dynamo be the workaround?

Like how families are stored in a project once you load them?Revit would greatly benefit from that.
