ArchiCAD 13 Hotfix now available!

Greg Kmethy — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 17:03:34 GMT

Dear Talkers,

ArchiCAD 13 Hotfix-2 (build3235) is now available. The name is Hotfix-2, but this is the first hotfix generally available. Please make sure to read the release notes:
http://www.graphisoft.com/support/archicad/downloads/ReleaseNotes/AC13-3000to3235-ReleaseNotes.html
This Hotfix will update ArchiCAD, the BIM Server, the BIM Server Manager, and all ArchiCAD components, like MEP Modeler, EcoDesigner, C4D Add-On, and the goodie tools.

Teamwork users: Make sure that the BIM Server and all the ArchiCAD clients are updated at the same time!

So the "Update Archicad" in the help menu is obsolete now? Mine is saying "up-to-date" build 3000.

But in the release notes of this hotfix it updates all Language Versions.

So we have to download the Hotfix from the release notes link now?

Hi Greg

I am having trouble updating my BIM Server. Its installed on a separate drive (not on C:), the hotfix cannot find it, but even if i redirect to the installed directory E:\Program Files\Graphisoft\BIM Server\TeamworkServer the installer cannot find the BIM server. This is rather urgent as I have already updated a few of the client machines....

Thanks

Brett,

Hotfix has been not verified for NZE version of ArchiCAD yet. We are adding localized versions as QC progresses. Expect NZE later this week/early next week.

Ever since our hotfix, we have been having issues with accessing the bim server libraries. We are unable to upload any new libraries, and while in a project, cannot attach any library at all. Through Archicad, no library on the bim server is visible, while on bim server manager all libraries can be seen.

We have tried reinstalling the bim server software to no avail.
We are all on intel macs running the latest snow leopard builds. The server is running on a dell machine.

Any ideas on how we can fix this?

Did You update the Bim Server? (the same update patch does that)

Best Regards,

Yes, everything is updated. If it were not, we would not be able to connect to it at all. We have further tested it on the single PC we have in the office. The PC is able to see all the libraries on the server. So it seems a mixed environment is not allowed with the new hotfix. Can anyone else confirm this?

I'm using the hotfixed AC13 on Mac OS X 10.5 and I cannot upload any libraries to the BIM server and when I create a Teamwork file no BIM server libraries are created.

Ben (or anyone else), care to share how you were able to resolve this issue? Since the next post says you got it. I am just now dealing with this issue with our BIM Server located on a 64-bit Windows 7 server. It's located on the C: of the server but still says not found even after I locate the right directory being C:\Program Files\Graphisoft\BIM Server\TeamworkServer.

Thanks!

Ladies and Gentlemen,

I hope this helps. As for the Library issue, I have just found out that the IP address of the server allows me access to the BIM Server Libraries.

Another test would be to create the Teamwork Link File on the server side and using that file to connect on the desktop archicads.

Good luck!

We had been having trouble with the box the BIM server is on, I just had to reboot and it worked. I dont think that machine had been rebooted since the BIM server was first installed on it.

Attached is my ArchiCAD build information. Can anyone tell me if I need to update? It keeps on saying I'm not up to date, but when I download and go to install, it cannot find ArchiCAD for some reason. From what I can tell, I already have installed this update previously (one of the few countries to get it early), and the message telling me I'm not up to date is erroneous...

You must have modified something about your AC program folder, whether renaming the application/exe, moving it somewhere else...or?

If not obvious what is non-standard, you might have to re-install.

Sorry, confusion on my part!

The trouble I am having is with the new library update (3479.147). I download the file and go to install it, and it says it cannot find the AC13 library, so I manually browse to find it, and it still will not work.

Looks like you added "13" to the "Archicad" application (so you could differentiate it from other versions in the doc??). Rename it "Archicad" and it should work.
