Working with AutoCAD, Revit, and AutoCAD Architecture
3ds Max offers a number of features designed to streamline the design visualization workflow. The File Link Manager allows you to create a live link to a Drawing (DWG, DXF), Revit (RVT), or FBX file. You can then apply materials and animations in 3ds Max, but still update your geometry if any changes are made to the original file.
Geometry File Formats
You can import and export a variety of geometry file formats into and from a scene.
