Hello,

 

I'm trying to get a workspace going to read in a .dgn of some modeled power lines and then write them to a datasmith package. The dgn is read in okay but no assets are written by the datasmith writer. The Udatasmith file is created but there is no info in it and the scene_assets folder is empty.

I would also like to set-up a writer to bring a DEM into Unreal so any if you have any suggestions there it would be greatly appreciated. I know it's\\important to have Imagery/surfaces tiled properly for Unreal.

 

Cheers,

Hi @mackenziebudda​ 

Reading through the documentation for Unreal Engine it looks like lines are not supported so if your powerlines in the .dgn file are line features, unfortunately they will not appear in the Udatasmith file.
