Question: in the demo videos all the elements in each system are in the same layer (MEP-Electrical, MEP-HVAC, MEP-Plumbing). Is there a way of making say only the electrical ceiling boxes and HVAC diffusers show on the reflected ceiling plan, or you need additional 'architectural' elements for the architectural drawing?
Absolutely. Each individual element can be in any layer.
What is interesting is that there is some intelligence beyond layers that gives even more control over the MEP run.
Suppose you have a diffuser and some connected ductwork. Each piece could be in a different layer (not sure why) - but certainly the diffuser in one layer and the ductwork in another. The 'Select Connected Elements' command selects all of the coupled elements regardless of whether they are in the same layer or not or whether they are grouped in any way. The connected elements 'know' about each other.
Further, there is a command like 'edit selection set' for editing the connected elements. If you have selected 'connected elements' and some of them are on invisible layers, even those invisible elements are edited by this dialog - thus assuring that the intelligent assembly is changed in a logical way. See the attached screenshot of the dialog for selected ducts. (Editing an individual object is the same as editing any normal object.)
Cheers,
Karl

Unfortunately, I only saw these videos, I did not have chance to try the MEP Modeler in action so I do not know the answer to this question.

That is very impressive.

when could it be ready for AC 12?
thanks a lot

Watch the ten or so videos on the following web page and you will have a pretty good idea of what it is capable of and how it does it:

It's been nearly 2 months since this was posted.
Barry.
Gergely,
Any news on the curtain wall training guide?
Yet another 2 weeks have slipped by and I would really like to see it in action.
Barry.

The MEP modeler is a combination of add-on, library, work environment and template for ArchiCAD 12. It is not a separate application.
It is protected by an additional license that is typically added electronically to your existing USB WIBU keyplug.
MEP Modeler is available for purchase from your local reseller. All languages (e.g. Italian) may not be available yet.
Cheers,
karl

Z-Corp is using your boathouse in their ad.
How big is it?
What did it cost? How long to print?

Hi Guys, I will post some pictures of our models a little later today.
But, quickly, to get the model from ArchiAD to the ZPrinter you need only to export it as a VRML (.wrl).
This export type takes all of the textures and materials into the printer software with the 3D information.
It's quick.
View what you want printed in 3D with the layers showing what you want to see, File>Save As>VRML.
Tada.
