polyface mesh to revit native

[theoryshaw]

Does anyone know if there's a workflow yet to bring in a polyface mesh from Autocad to Revit, and have those objects be editable in Revit?

Or is this still illusive?

Thanks, Ryan

I have this question, too. We are unable to get a DWG model, when imported into Revit, to not show all the triangular mesh lines.

I don't seem to be able to upload the DWG to this website for you to see; I just get a red circle with an exclamation point.

Since I can't upload it, here is a link to the DWG file of East Boston building which are coming into Revit as a triangulated mesh (so that the tops of buildings look like triangles rather than rectangles).

Anyone know how to get the angled lines out in Revit?

Try creating the 3d cad file as ACIS Solids model; not polymesh.
