Migrating a Project to the Global Libraries in Archicad 29

JaredBanks — Mon, 09 Mar 2026 21:08:03 GMT

I recorded a video that covers the process of migrating a project from the pre-Archicad 28 Libraries (localized libraries) to the Global Libraries. While I don't recommend doing this, I know this is a topic that comes up again and again. Fortunately if you’re a long time user of my template (and work environment)—or probably any long established template—, the process is easier than you might think. Still not worth doing, except in very specific circumstances. But you know, totally doable. If you have to. Which you probably don’t. Here's a link to the blog post with more information and the video:

I haven't even had time to migrate most of my client's templates to libpacks... I'll definitely be watching your vid tonight, I'm sure this is going to answer a lot of my frustrations (even if the answer is 'yeah, this ****ing ****s a *** *** ***** ****')
