I might have moved the original Archicad mesh in z direction some time or another, i don't remember, which the AT manual warns against. Project Zero = sea level.īut when Architerra creates its "land" it places the AT mesh relative to a "user origin" at DOUBLE the current Story 0 level of 59.5 meters to the absolute mesh z-coordinates! This is nowhere stated.
The original Archicad mesh (here the backup copy on a different layer is shown) was placed about 60 m above zero (sea level). Please note that I'm working in true real-world coordinates here. The original AC mesh below, at correct +60 meters height, the AT-created land/mesh above, all mesh heights +119 meters off, at around +179 meters above zero. This time AT managed to create a "land" with the terrain tool. Well, i installed 2.05 and I also managed to find the 2.0 printed manual here in my chaotic office. On the page where I found the current 2.05 version, the only working link to a manual is to the AT1.0 version, used with Archicad 7.
Extremely slow server (is it a Filemaker database in Classic?), cumbersome to navigate, with scattered and differently updated info, some of it very old. There are at least three main sites, and then lesser "about" ones for each plugin they produce. Cigraph's web site(s) is/are one of the worst I know. I've tried to use Architerra before, and I'm prepared for trouble. Luckily, I'm working on a copy of the orginal. And since the original mesh was deleted (without warning) in the process, my terrain was lost. Architerra refused to create "land" from the exploded mesh points. First, to oreopoulos - I did just that (explode).
