Note:
If you install Viz after NavisWorks, then install NavisWorks again, choosing the Custom Install
option and choose the relevant version of Viz. The NavisWorks installer will find the right place for
the plugin and set up all relevant registry entries for you.
See “ 3DS Files ” for information on the supported and unsupported entities for the Viz exporter.
Exporting .nwc files from Viz and Max:
1. Go to File > Export.
The Export dialog box is displayed.
2. Set the File Type to "NavisWorks File (*.nwc)" and choose the location and name of the .nwc file to
be exported.
3. Click OK to export the file or Cancel to return to Viz without exporting it.
Note:
Any textures applied to the Viz model will be saved in a directory with the same name as the
exported file, but with a "_presenter_maps" suffix. All textures will be converted into .bmp files
and saved into this directory for use with NavisWorks.
