Running BIMXplorer directly from Revit 2021-2024 may lead to periodic frame rate drops (due to Revit background processes). Saving the file (.bmx) and open in standalone version of BIMXplorer will solve such issues.
In this update release, we are pleased to unveil several notable improvements, including the ability to set section planes from IFC storeys/levels, a convenient "quick jump" feature for specific storeys/levels, enhanced support for Revit 2021, and significant enhancements to the IFC importer, resulting in faster loading of .grx-files.
This update brings exciting enhancements, such as an updated IFC importer and the introduction of a new dimensioning tool featuring center (c/c) snapping for pipes and rebars. Explore the capabilities of the new dimensioning tool in action.
We've addressed the issue of missing fonts and icons in the VR GUI when launching BIMXplorer from Revit, ensuring a visually polished and error-free virtual experience.
