Help Needed - Imported Revit Models Appear Black


Jack2022

Question

Hi All,

 

has anyone found a reason for, or a solution to why Revit models import many grouped mesh objects with a black fill? Screen shot attached.

I can't afford to spend another few hours trying to convert the meshes to have a white fill. It already took 3 hours to import the model to VW. 

 

Thanks,

 

Jack

You really need to get a copy of Revit, there’s a free trial,  so you can investigate these things on the creation side.  Why did it happen and how to fix it? Pretty hard to say for sure based on the information provided.

I'm on Mac and I don't think translation software will handle the model. Plus I can't bare to learn another BIM software! 

 

If there's no handy tips from other's with past experience of this I'll have to suffer it. 

 

I resigned my self to just ungroup the meshes of the areas that directly interact with our areas of the design and change those to white. Not ideal but much better than trying to make their whole model neat to look at. 

 

Thanks,
