Revit .nwc Exporter
JetStream Roamer cannot read native Revit files directly, however support for both Revit Building and Revit Structures can be achieved through exporting a JetStream .nwc cache file, which can then be read into Roamer.
Note
The Microsoft .NET Framework is not installed by JetStream and must be installed for JetStream and Revit to work correctly on the same machine. If these components are not installed an error message will be displayed when Revit is started. The version of .NET Framework to install is dependent upon the version of Revit being used.
AutoDesk Revit Building 9 / Structure 3 / Systems - Install Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0
AutoDesk Revit Building 8 / Structure 2 - Install Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1
Start Revit and load the project.
Set the editing view to normal, and make sure the Modify tool is selected.
Select the Tools, External Tools, JetStream v5 from NavisWorks menu option. If this option is not available, check firstly that the Modify tool is selected, and secondly that the Revit license is correct such that the product is not being used in Demo/Viewer mode.
A file selection box dialog is displayed.
Select the location and filename you want to export to.
Click on the JetStream settings button to change the export configuration.
The Revit Options dialog is displayed
Convert element parameters can be set to None where none of the parameters are read, Elements where all parameter fields are read from all found elements, or All where all parameters from all found elements are read, as well as property tabs added for any elements referenced.
Check the Convert element Ids check box to export the id numbers on each Revit element.
Check the Try and find missing materials check box to search for an appropriate material where one is expected but not found. This can help to improve the appearance of exported models.
Export can be set to Entire scene where all geometry in the project is exported, Current view where everything that is currently visible is exported, or Selection where only those items that are currently selected are exported.
Click OK to export the file or Cancel to return to Revit without exporting it.
