Hi,
When exporting the 3D models from OpenRoads or OpenRail Designer, teh files can't be read in other software like Navisworks, Solibri?
I don't see options I can change while exporting to IFC
So any idea on how to handle this?

Do you edit every single IFC and replace all"/" signs? Or just in FD paths? Find/Replace tool? I am a bit lost with this.
Best,

Adam, God no!
At the moment, until IFC as a system gets better and the exporters catch up we aren't really using IFC

Hi Benzi, may I know how do you preserve the lanes markings (created via 3D linetypes) while exporting the model to DWG format?I've tried exporting the 3D model to DWG, but the lane marking dash lines ended up with straight continuous lines instead of dash lines.
I'm not sure AutoCAD supports 3D line types. You can try setting this switch to see if they get dropped during export:
I know I’m a bit late to the party on this one, but Navisworks 2021 now has a .DGN importer “built in” as a Beta Option. If you look under General Settings in Navisworks 2021 and select the DGN Beta check box, this will allow you to simply import Openroads and Microstation files into Navisworks. I have tested this was ORD corridors and it works well.
