Virtual Building Explorer for AC 12

Anonymous — Tue, 09 May 2023 11:13:39 GMT

I have been trying out VBE for AC12 and been getting some very unusual results. I have attached a screen shot.
Could anyone suggest why this is happening? I have been using Cadimage Roof Builder and some of the various AC12 standard objects, all of which are giving me the strange extended lines.

When I export ArchiCAD Model to VBE, there's just background sky.

It has happened several times.

I don't know why this happened.

From what i remeber i experienced something similar some years ago because a bad gdl-object or something wrong in my project .
Try a new default project ( default tpl. ) , load default libraries , make some walls , slabs in your project and export to VBE . If with default settings it work i suggest to :
1-Create new project
2-Merge your actual project
3-Import your actual project settings with attribute manager
4-Try a new VBE export

Succes

I remember years ago seeing something like this within AC itself when the model is built far from the true origin. Could that be the case here?

One of my people is experiencing the same problem.
It was working fine before but has apparently started playing up in the last week.
The machine has been upgraded to Windows 7 (64 bit) from Windows XP (64 bit) but other than that no changes.
But I am told it actually started playing up while the machine was still XP.

Is any one else having this trouble or know a solution?
I have other users having no trouble at all with VBE on 32 bit machines.
