I have a working apx in archicad17 how do I make it work in an Archicad18
plan. I have copied over my dependent .dll file into the Archicad18 folder & the apx into the addon folder
Am I missing something obvious?
I'm running a trial version od Archicad18

I am no API expert but I believe you have to re-compile your add-ons using the 18 dev kit.

Hi Bianca,

Barry is right; you have to recompile the add-on for ArchiCAD 18; running the trial version doesn't make any difference. The development kit is already available at the same spot you downloaded the AC17 devkits from.

Best, Akos
