Datasmith plugin for two different language versions of Archicad 25

I have both AC25 POL and AC25 INT version installed on one computer. After installing Datasmith plugin, it only displayed in AC25 INT version. Is it only mine problem or it is general issue?  Is there any option to choose target folder before instaling Datasmith ?

 

P.S. however, in AC24 and Twinmotion 2020 versions, previous Twinmotion Direct Link works for both versions.

Hello, did you manage to solve this problem?

I found a workaround that works:

- in archicad POL, in addons manager add  the plugin by selecting the file that is in the INT addons folder (C:\Program Files\GRAPHISOFT\ARCHICAD 25INT\Add-Ons\Import-Export\DatasmithARCHICAD25Exporter)

- close archicad

- copy manually the file c:\...\Graphisoft\Arhicad25INT\DatasmithUE4ArchiCAD.dll

to c:\...\Graphisoft\Arhicad25POL

Having the same issue now in Czech version of AC 27, unfortunately copping the ddl file and choosing file in INT version location didn't help. Even though i have all up to date, it tells that that datasmith i old version and incompatible with current archicad version. Any other idea?
