With this method, use ArchiCAD’s Publisher to set up a Publisher Set and fine-tune options for the resulting Hyper-model.

Use the Publisher to Create a BIMx Hyper-Model There are two ways to do this: either use the Publisher (this gives you more options) or launch a wizard from ArchiCAD’s File menu (this is simpler, but gives you fewer options). To create a Hyper-model, you must set up a Publisher Set in ArchiCAD, which will be published in Hyper-model format. (You can filter the 3D content as well as narrow the set of published layouts.) Unlike the BIMx 3D Model, the Hyper-model can contain the full documentation of your ArchiCAD project: 2D and 3D views, plus layouts and even camera paths.

Note: Its 3D content only can also be viewed in the free BIMx mobile app or the BIMx Desktop Viewer application.īoth the BIMx 3D Model (saved from the ArchiCAD file) and the Hyper-model (created from a Publisher Set) use the. The resulting BIMx file can then be downloaded by anyone who wishes to view the model documentation using the BIMx Docs app on a mobile device. A Publisher Set can be saved as a BIMx Hyper-model file, then optionally uploaded to the Cloud, straight from ArchiCAD’s Publisher.
