Seamlessly Integrate Vectorworks 2024 with Artlantis: Download the New Export Plug-In Now

Design professionals using Vectorworks 2024 have something to celebrate. The integration between Vectorworks and Artlantis has reached a new milestone with the release of the latest export plug-in. This plug-in seamlessly bridges Vectorworks 2024 to Artlantis 2021 or earlier versions, making it easier for designers and architects to enhance their renderings and bring their visions to life. Whether you're on a Mac or Windows operating system, the process for downloading and installing this tool is straightforward and user-friendly. For those looking to harness the rendering capabilities of Artlantis, this plug-in is a game-changer. Artlantis is known for its speed, user-friendliness, and the ability to create high-resolution 3D renderings and animations. It's lauded for RT² technology, ensuring that the renders and animations are as realistic as possible, which is invaluable in client presentations and refining design details.

Here's a step-by-step guide to get you started:

Step 1: Install the Artlantis Plugin to Vectorworks
First things first, you'll need to install the Artlantis plugin to your Vectorworks software. This is accomplished by navigating to Vectorworks Menu and selecting “Help > Install Partner Product…”

Once there, the Artlantis icon will be visible. Clicking this icon will take you to the plug-in’s page, and from there, simply click the “install” button.

Step 2: Add the Artlantis Plugin to the Vectorworks Workspace
After the plug-in is installed, restart Vectorworks to finalize the installation. Return to the partner page via the Menu “Help > Install Partner Product…” and click on “Installed products”, followed by “Add to Workspace”.

The Artlantis plug-in should now be successfully installed and ready to use. You can locate the new Artlantis export feature under the “Tools > Partner Products > Artlantis Export…” menu. With this, you're all set to export your Vectorworks 2024 models directly into Artlantis and start rendering.

Remember, Artlantis RT² will import .atl file formats saved by any previous Artlantis versions, so there's no need to worry about compatibility issues with older files. The integration doesn't just stop at rendering static images. Users can also create immersive walkthroughs, panoramas, and even animations.

As a powerful standalone rendering application, Artlantis provides the flexibility to work with various light types, seasonal scenarios, and materials that react realistically to the environment, giving designers full control over their presentations.
