Revit to Dialux EVO via Sketchup Pro

I've been trying to figure out how to import a multi story building into Dialux Evo seamlessly, and I finally figured it out....

you need sketchup pro

1) First go to Revit 3d View
2) Select only things that you would want to export
3) Isolate Elements
4) Export to an appropriate version of dxf that would work with your version of sketchup
5) Import to sketchup, clean up things and apply transparency
6) Export as .3ds, make sure if your check the material box if there's any transparency in the model.
7) Open Dialux Evo, Import .3ds
8) Voila!


Let me know if you have a better way to do this.
