Does anyone have MicroStation V8i ( SELECTseries 2 ) version or higher to be able to convert some DGN files to DWG (or AEC)?

I'm looking to get a few of these MAP files on https://www.tn.gov/tdot/roadway-design/design-standards/design-cadd-files/tennessee-map-files-for-microstation.html converted into AEC.

Thanks!

You can use the ODA Drawings Explorer to import a DGN file, then save it to DWG. In the Drawings Explorer, create a new file, then use the import command to bring in the DGN file.

ODA Drawings Explorer

Note: You can also open a DGN file directly, but then the only option is to export to DWF.

Mark, thank you for looking!

Both BricsCAD V21 and CADDirect 2022 are able to open DGN files and save out to a DWG; I have both.

If you PM me with your email address I'll translate what you need and save them out to AEC for you.

See my edits above. You CAN use the ODA Drawings Explorer to import a DGN file then save it to DWG.

THANK YOU MtnArch for the offer to help, you are so kind! I will try what Mark is saying with ODA and post back.

Glad Mark was able to find that ODA can export it to DWG! My offer still stands if it doesn't work out.
