It's Friday afternoon here on the west coast.

The download link will have to be sent out soon if they are going to deliver RC today.

I have an ArchiCAD model ready. My Xeon's are waiting for a 24hr workout. I hope nothing melts!

another archicad user here in west coast of australia
6.50am saturday morning... no rc notification as yet

[Steve Jepson]

its here. I just finished loading it.

In the original e-mail they sent me when I got my beta, there was a link to the download site. I tried it and it worked. I have RC installed on my computer now.

Steve,
have u successfully imported ac9 geometry?
i try to open mxs file (using existing plugin) from standalone maxwell,
but no objects appear??

[Steve Jepson]

no. my wife it trying to keep me off the computer. Did you try to make a new .mxs? I read that RC will not open the old .mxs files.

[psimun]

tried to open old mxs file in maxwell studio standalone application...
no geometry is imported !!

then saved new mxs with existing plugin.... same result

then saved new obj. file inside archicad..... only one wall object imported
i had some chairs on a slab aswell, but this didn't import!!

dunno what else to try? perhaps just keep posted on the fall out & what NL have to say.........

i think the archicad plugin ain't the best, & rc seems buggy!!

I am giving up for now. I can get it to work.
I tried re-loading the add-on and RC. Played with the settings. Still get the same error. "Invalid normal 1 index." when I close that error box a warning box opens that says "Can not write output file".
I noticed that when I installed RC it did not proppt me to "insert the attached license.dat file." like the e-mail from Alex said it would.
MAy be that is my problem. ?

[Steve Jepson]

ooo! I must have pushed some good buttons. It opened. Thats a start. I have nothing to look at but the program is open. I deleted everything in the seen except the slab and it worked.

I think I will keep trying.

There is also a way to post a screen shot with only one click but I have not figured that one out yet.
