Create BIMx Hyper-Model from Publisher
In the Publishing Properties dialog box, choose how you would like to publish the Hyper-model: either Upload BIMx Hyper-model or Save.
Choose this publishing method to upload the file to the BIMx Model Transfer Site at bimx.graphisoft.com. (You must register before using this site.)
Note: The Private Folder option is available only to users who have a Software Service Agreement (SSA) for ARCHICAD.
Note: The Hyper-model will include the ARCHICAD Project Info and Project Preview data.

Check Save local copy and enter a destination file path if you wish to save a local copy of the Hyper-model in addition to uploading it to the BIMx Model Transfer site.
|
Choose the Save files publishing method to save the Hyper-model to the selected destination path.

|
Choose Create single file to be access the BIMx Hyper-model format.

Use the Info Set pop-up to control which model element information should be available to viewers of the BIMx model on a mobile device:
|
|
•
|
The Default for BIMx output option uses data defined in an Interactive Element Schedule of this name. This schedule is provided in the factory-default ARCHICAD template (for the International market), but you are free to modify the schedule scheme as needed, or to choose a different schedule.
|
|
•
|
The Categories and Properties option uses the data defined for each element in the Categories and Properties panel of its Element Settings dialog box.
|
|
•
|
The Legacy option provides the same basic element data as in previous BIMx versions.
|
|
•
|
Choose None if you don’t want the recipient to view any element information (e.g., if the recipient will just be viewing the model geometry as a whole, and doesn’t need any details on the various component elements).
|
Note: BIMx Export Options is also available from the BIMx Hyper-model Wizard.
|
•
|
Export Options for a 3D View: Select the 3D view from the list of Publisher Set items in the Publisher, then click Options.
|
Optionally, check the box to generate Global Illumination: this provides a highly realistic view, but increases rendering time. Note that Global Illumination consumes additional memory.

Note: If you are using the BIMx Hyper-model wizard, you must select a camera in the Floor Plan in order to include it in the Publisher Set.
|
•
|
Add cameras as separate gallery items: A separate gallery item (an image viewpoint) will be created out of each camera in the current ARCHICAD camera path
|
|
•
|
Create a single movie for the gallery: A single movie-type gallery item will be created out of the current ARCHICAD camera path
|
|
•
|
Limit navigation to gallery items: Navigation of the resulting BIMx project will be limited to just the views and clips you save to the Gallery (instead of the full project)
|
Note: You can cancel Global Illumination calculation, without interrupting the overall Publishing process. To cancel, select the 3D view in the Publisher dialog box. The small red X will cancel the Global Illumination calculation, but the 3D view will still be saved to the Hyper-model - without Global Illumination.
