Visualizer Credits

When you save files that can be visualized, you will be prompted to select the files you want to visualize. Each company starts with 10 credits. Revit and Naviworks visualizations cost 0.5 credits, and other visualized asset cost 0.1 credits.

Visualizer Errors

Some files are not support in the visualizer, and you may encounter errors when attempting to visualize these files.

Revit Unsupported Version

Revit files saved in an old version of Revit are not supported. Please upgrade your project to Revit 2015 or later to visualize this file.

Translation Worker-Recoverable Internal Failure

Corrupt DWGs and files created in Solidworks are not supported. Please open your file in Autodesk and save then try to upload and visualize again.
