Is it possible to import Placemarks, Lines and such from Google Earth to C3D without 3rd party software?
I F1'd the crap out of "help" and came up short with their explanations. TBC exports to Google Earth but doesn't import from. (unless I'm missing something)

I don't think that there is a quick and easy way without a third party software. In 2011 C3D and GE played nicely, but that went away after 2011. I believe that there are add-ons to C3D to import/convert kml files to something C3D will play with, if you google "import kml to civil 3d" you can find a couple of them.

Civil3D 2015+ has a built in EXPORTKML command. However, there still is no KML importing, a third party add-on will be necessary.

We use the Spatial Manager add-on program to bring Google Earth KML/KMZ files into C3D. It also works with numerous other file formats and with vanilla AutoCAD.
