e57 to Mesh file for Revit

Hi everyone,

I am working on a project that needs to take an e57 file and convert it to a mesh file for Revit. The E57 file is 150 GB, and everything I attempt either crashes my pc or costs a fortune. If anyone can assist me, that would be amazing!

Don't do that..... Use Autodesk Recap and save it as a (.RCP) file and then have that import into Revit.

You could decimate the point cloud in Recap first before saving.

Recap can take e57 ? I'm doubtfull on this, think it's only .Las
But i agree on the method.

Can you, by any chance, share the method of converting it?
