How do I load MEP library?

Anonymous

Greetings guys,

I just started using Archicad MEP modeler and I wanted to give it a go and build a simple system just to test the software. But I am unable to do so because I cannot seem to find the pipe/duct library. Can you please help me find it? It should be straight forward I think but I guess I am missing something. Best regards,

milangomes:

Look at Applications > Graphisoft > ARCHICAD XX > MEP Library XX. Use the Library Manager to load the library.

You should add a Signature to your Profile (click the Profile button near the top of this page) with your ArchiCAD version and operating system (see mine for an example) for more accurate help in this forum.

Loosely related... How do you UNLOAD MEP Modeler?

I tried just unchecking in ADD ON MANAGER, but you can't.
I tried just removing the MEP Folder from the ADD-on folder, but it won't start archicad without it in there.

I find MEP of no use to me and when installed it takes over some of the base cabinet objects making it so I can't change a 2-Door Base Cabinet into a Multi Drawer Base because the drawers are not MEP blessed...

Any advice would be helpful!

The MEP Modeler is a separate installation.
So I would suggest that you use the Uninstall command to remove it.
