ArchiCAD 16 Hotfix-1 (build 3014) released

Greg Kmethy — Wed, 01 Aug 2012 11:29:33 GMT

We have released Hotfix-1 (build 3014) for ArchiCAD 16. The primary reason for releasing this Hotfix is a crash that occurs fairly frequently when launching a second instance of ArchiCAD 16. Besides this, there are a couple of zone calculation-related fixes included.

The Hotfix is currently available through the automatic update system for INT, USA, AUS, NZE and GER language versions. Other language versions will be enabled as they pass QC. You can find a list of fixed bugs in the release note:
http://www.graphisoft.com/support/archicad/downloads/ReleaseNotes/AC16-3006to3014-ReleaseNotes.html

We are planning to release the next Hotfix early fall.

Looks like no Mountain Lion compatibility fixes? Hopefully that will be in the Fall release or before.

so maybe now GS will ship ArchiCAD16 to its Australian user base?
Still not sure why the big delays vs other countries...

Only 2 more weeks to wait.
Apparently we can download it from http://www.myarchicad.com/ but when I log in there I can only see what I have downloaded in the past.
I can't see anyway to get to 16 (apart from creating a new login).
Is there some not so obvious button i am missing that links to 16?

Barry,

The reason why you don't see ArchiCAD 16 on MyArchiCAD is probably that you selected Australia as your country when you registered, and in that case MyArchiCAD only offers you the AUS version, which is not released yet.

I thought this was the case when I checked a little while ago.
But today I had an e-mail from GS Austrailia informing us of a delay in the shipping of the DVD.
This is part of the message.

If you urgently require ArchiCAD 16 as you are waiting to start a new project, or just cant wait to get your hands on this eagerly awaited release, you can download ArchiCAD 16 now.
Go to www.myarchicad.com register as a professional and download the Australian AC16 version – this is available now.

That is why I thought it might be there now.
I actually created a new login and straight away I was able to download the AUS version.
But when I login with my existing details I can only see the page with my previous downloads.

Barry.

Uff... You are a lucky boy, I'm Spanish and here the spa version will be release some day in October... And even with archiplus update we can't use the INT version... So if you can use the INT version you are very lucky.

Dear Berry,

In Australia International version is not offered for professional users. I checked you account and it seems that your current ArchiCAD product is the International (because you have changed country from UK), so you cannot upgrade to a new version in Australia. This is why we developed a new function (next to the country change) with which you can choose your preferred ArchiCAD language version (not available in every country). Please go to your account page, select Australian ArchiCAD 15 as your preferred language. After that the site will offer you to try ArchiCAD 16 Australian version.

Best Regards,
Balázs

Dear Jose,

I also checked your account on MyArchiCAD.com, and you are registered to USA, so if you login you will be offered to download the new version. You will get a 30-day serial of course, but that should be enough to try it out

Best regards,

Thanks for responding Balázs but I don't seem to have this option (see attached image).
I originally registered as UK because I wanted to get the INT version and this seemed to be the easiest way to do it.

There is a "set preferred language" button on the main page but this is next to the older downloads for 14 and 13 but as these were also INT it doesn't change anything.

Could INT be an option next to everyone's localised version?
Many people work internationally these days with the internet and it is nice to see how the main version is set up rather than our modified local version.

Very weird bug... and I'm not sure how it relates to the ArchiCAD 16 codemeter upgrade but it seems somehow related.

Last night our network codemeter was upgraded to 16, but we are still working on 15 (build 3898 on Windows) for our projects until testing is done and templates updated.
We also, however, added a new folder with some updated library parts (for 15) to the C drives of all the workstations.

With teamworked and solo files, on different workstations with different projects, there is a dimensioning bug which has occurred between yesterday and today. Find any string of dimensions and add a new dimensioning node - ArchiCAD thinks about it for a second or two ... and then CRASHES.

Is anyone else having this problem? Please would you guys test to see if you can add a node to a dimension string in 15 if you've upgraded your protection key to 16 already.

GS or Karl, anyone: Could a loaded libraries affect dimensioning? Or for that matter updating the protection key to 16?

Thanks in advance

Hi Kim,

Hate to hijack this hotfix thread ... maybe you can copy your post into a fresh one? This seems like a nasty issue.

Adding dimension nodes works fine for me on Mac in 15 still after the 16 CM upgrade. It seems unlikely that either libraries or the CM key upgrade (or even CM driver) could cause an add-node crash. Since it happens on Solo files, it can't be related to reservations ... The only thing I can think of that could impact things would be 3rd party add-ons. You could try temporarily moving any that you have from the Add-Ons folder into another folder, restart AC and see if things are still amiss...?

Cheers,
Karl

Still not fixed the problem with trimming polylines.
If dimension placed on the end of polyline, then ArchiCAD crashes when trying to trim polyline with Ctrl+click tool.
