Problem installing the Archicad (v25) -grasshopper connection

Erick — Fri, 23 Sep 2022 13:48:17 GMT

Hi everyone,

I've installed the latest version of the connection. At the end of the installation I get the following message

even though I've installed the right package for the right rhino version (7)

Then, when I start AC to begin the connection, I can't found it where it should be.

Does anyone know how to solve this problem? I use the connection a lot!

Thanks

Did you then install the latest update of Archicad?

And if you already have it, did you re-install it as suggested in the message?

I ask simply because you didn't say if you did this or not.

Hi Barry,

The connection was installed on the last Archicad 25 update. I've re-installed it now (I havn't done that when you asked), and the start button for the connection is still not there.

I really don't know the answer as I don't have Grasshoper.

Just wondering if you had tried what the message said.

Could it be that you have a custom Work Environment and the commands just aren't there?

i.e. you may have to add them manually or switch to a standard Work Environment?

If you go to the Add-on Manager, does it show there that it is installed properly?

Hi again,

Thanks Barry for the tip on using the add-on manager function (first time for me). It was installed somewhere I never expected, as it used to be installed under file>interoperability. Now I can just start the connection from its "new" placement. Thanks a lot again Barry!

Awesome and well spotted.

I didn't think it might have installed in a different menu.
