MEP Modeler Compatibility

Anonymous
Not applicable
I purchased MEP modeler awhile ago. I am now getting around to installing it. However, I am getting a message which says "Archicad (2675 USA Full),
MEP Modeler (2327 USA Full) add-on are not compatible". How do I get beyond this message in order to install the MEP Modeler add-on. This message occurs when loading Archicad 12. Any ADVICE will be greatly appreciated.

Respectfully,
Greg

Hi Greg,

I'm guessing it might have something to do with the last point mentioned on this link -

http://www.archicadwiki.com/MEP/FAQ

To downgrade to 2325, I believe you actually have to reinstall ArchiCAD afresh and then install hotfix#2 2325 afterwards, as I don't think it's possible to remove a hotfix once it has been installed. You can find the individual hotfixes here -

Don't forget to update again afterwards to the latest version!

Peter,

Thank You! At least it's nice to know there's a solution.

The error message is displayed when MEP has been installed after updating ArchiCAD to the latest build (2675), so the MEP add-on does not get updated.

A simpler solution has now made available in the form of an MEP Hotfix, which updates MEP Modeler to build 2675.

To download the Hotfix and for the release notes, see the following page:
http://www.graphisoft.com/products/mep-modeler/MEP_downloads.html

Users who installed the latest ArchiCAD Hotfix after installing MEP modeler do not need this MEP Modeler Hotfix. The ArchiCAD Hotfix has already updated their MEP Modeler as well.

I've also updated the FAQ.
