- Save time processing an import using Model Preview
- Interactive editing of element properties
- Clean-up of 2D symbols and 3D graphics
- Faster preview when working with complex models
- Manage performance with tools to control high polygon counts
- Decreased file size using the ModelPort Save Mode
- Add light to manufacturer & third party content
- and much more!

IMPORT & REVIEW
Access more imports & review 90% faster
Expand import formats
ModelPort gives Archicad users greater access to manufacturer and third party models with 15 format options including SKP, OBJ, FBX, MODO, X3D, Blender and more!
You can also use ModelPort to edit and manage Revit, Rhino and IFC files using our "Import from Archicad" feature.
For formats not supported by ModelPort, such as RFA, IFC and Rhino, you can use “Import from Archicad”.
First import using Archicad’s built-in import options, place and select the Object then choose "Import from Archicad" in the ModelPort menu.
Batch import
If you regularly download objects from third party websites or manufacturers this feature allows you to quickly import multiple files at one time. It's simple, select the files and use Batch Import to reduce time importing multiple models.
IMPROVE GRAPHICS
Clean-up 2D symbols & 3D model
Reduce messy graphics
When a model with curved surfaces is imported to Archicad it will often create messy 2D symbols and 3D graphics.
Imports using ModelPort will automatically clean up both the symbols in plan as well as the graphics in 3D model elements.
INTERACTIVE EDITING
Quickly edit imported models
OPTIMIZE PERFORMANCE
Improve workability of 3D imports

CONTROL DETAIL

Levels of detail
ModelPort offers three levels of detail that can be linked to imported elements which are Full, Simplified and Schematic.

FLEXIBLE LICENSING
Work at home, office and with teams
Workflow Options
The move to hybrid work has influenced the technology industry's migration towards cloud licensing.
With this latest release of ModelPort we're introducing two cloud license options, the Switch License and Floating License.
Standard License
This option has been available the past several years and works well for an individual with one computer who does not need the flexibility of moving the license.
Switch License
If you work from home and have a second computer at your office or have both a desktop and a laptop this license provides the flexibility to easily switch between two computers.
Floating License
For offices with different locations or team members who want to share licenses this provides the flexibility to transfer licenses between different users and computers.
Viewer License
If you're a principal who wants to review a project or a consultant who is referencing a model this license allows content to be viewed without a subscription.
“With ModelPort, we have the power to fine-tune materials and components, ensuring that every imported element aligns perfectly with our vision”
