I posted a couple of images of renders I was able to do in Corona (from ArchiCAD developed models and projects) in a thread discussing this very issue and which is what brought my attention to this possibility in the first place at this ArchiCAD user discussion thread: In any case, I strongly believe A Corona ArchiCAD bridge would find much faster adoption among ArchiCAD users than it would with say Revit (where they have a VRay integration already) And the current internal renderer while serviceable is not great or nearly in the same league as Corona (or VRay for that matter) nor is it even developed or maintained by Graphisoft themselves - which often leads to issues. I believe ArchiCAD users would readily, enthusiastically (and quickly) adopt it since the main roadblock now to more archiCAD users using or knowing about Corona is the fact that you can only access it only through 3DS Max.

Maxwell, Octane render, Twinmotion) so the API should be straight forward for most people seeking to create a bridge. To be frank, neither is this one since not a lot of ArchiCAD users would come this way.ĪrchiCAD has had a few third-party renderers created plugins and bridges for it (e.g. I saw the video with the short demonstration showing a bit of the demo/alpha version you guys were working on, although I must point out that that probably wasn't the best venue from which to get feedback from possible ArchiCAD users.

I basically registered and searched this topic just to give my opinion on this issue.Īs you might guess I'm an ArchiCAD user and wanted to chime in support of any effort to bring in ArchiCAD integration. I hope it's not too late to put in my two cents in this question.
