Archicad 28 Goodies is a collection of free add-ons developed by Graphisoft to extend the core functionality of the software
. These tools are typically not part of the standard installation and must be downloaded and installed separately. Graphisoft Key Tools Included in the Goodies Suite
While the specific list is updated for each version, the following legacy tools are standard components of the Goodies package: Graphisoft Accessories : Includes the Roof, Slab, and Wall Accessories
add-ons. These allow you to add more detailed sub-elements (like cladding or insulation layers) to standard Archicad structures. Check Duplicates
: A utility to find and select identical elements placed on top of each other, which helps clean up the model and prevent calculation errors. Construction Simulation
: Provides basic 4D simulation capabilities by linking construction dates to model elements and showing the build-up over time.
: An add-on that helps in creating internal zones and listing interior finishes more efficiently. Mesh to Roof Tool
: Converts mesh surfaces into individual roof planes, useful for creating complex or irregular roof shapes. Polygon Counting Tool
: Helps manage project performance by showing the number of 3D polygons in the model, allowing you to identify "heavy" objects.
: Used to create custom 3D elements by sweeping a 2D profile along a path. Installation and Usage : You can find the installer on the Graphisoft Goodies download page
. Ensure you select the version that matches your Archicad 28 build (e.g., Archicad 28.1.0).
: Once installed, some tools appear in the standard menu (like Design > Design Extras Window > Palettes
), while others like the Accessories require you to load their specific library through the Library Manager Library Compatibility : Archicad 28 uses the new Global Library (.libpack)
