About this app

Graphisoft’s BIMx is an interactive app for exploring BIM projects and linked documentation sets created in Archicad and DDScad. Please download to visualize or collaborate on architectural design projects on your mobile device(s).

BIMx offers professional building visualization with game-like navigation to explore and visualize architectural projects. BIMx features the ‘BIMx hyper-model’ – allowing non-design professionals to explore and fully understand architectural design intent, view project deliverables, and access element level BIM data. BIMx links the 3D model with the relevant 2D documentation layouts, providing a seamless way to view the 3D cutaway model in the context of a 2D layout — and vice versa.

BIMx connects the construction site with the architect’s office for streamlined collaboration. Real-time model cut-throughs, in-context measuring and project markups in the model context make BIMx your best on-site BIM companion. Drive the design narrative on the building site for fast, specific client feedback.

Features:
• Hyperlinked 2D & 3D views with interactive markers
• Trace 2D drawings on 3D with animation
• Access project and building component-related BIM information
• Superfast 2D documentation viewer
• Game-like 3D navigation
• Gravity & Egress recognition
• Option to access a Hyper-model element from outside of the app
• Google Cardboard VR support on smartphones

Very nice app, although it lacks much guidance on how to use the app with a VR viewer. eg - how to move around? Do I have to use a joystick? Wouldn't it be better to have waypoints to click on? EDIT 1: Well, in the light of the answer and more exploration I've downgraded my review because it seems to me this could have been so much better than it is. No-one wants to wear Cardboard VR viewers, so a better way would have been to have integrated VR joystick functionality, or at least auto click on buttons (point, at the button, wait while the timer counts down, then autoclick). As things stand, you're on a constant walk without the ability to stop (unless you use the Cardboard viewer) which is poor and unhelpful for clients. Pity, because it's very close to being brilliant but by missing one function, it's not very practical. Could do better guys. EDIT 2: Looks like it will work with a joystick, but it took a couple of hours playing around with the joystick settings to get it connected to the app. In short, you can walk, stop, reverse all using a handheld Bluetooth joystick, which is pretty much most of what you'd like to do. So this time, I'm UPGRADING my rating. It is brilliant.

Hello to developer. You guys did an awesome job. I'm not in the architect field but the app was user friendly for me. Don't know why the complaints. I was able to navigate throughout the whole building. Motorola Stylus 5g 2023 with Android 13

I love this app it's really good , but you really need to work on the navigation its very bad , try to look at some games like "crusiders of light " or those fortnite games look-like in andriod . They did an amzing job using the wheel and the screen for moving . Also u need to add a way to flip the controls some people like to swipe left to look right and some other people like to swipe right to go right ...kind like first person shooter games . Otherwise, i can't wait what you gone do next with this app , it has so much potential. You just need to work on the navigation more Keep up the good work
