I got info from GS about this.

Internal cut error 54 and 64 can occur when the program tries to cut a degenerated polygonal body. Such a body could be an extruded polygon, but the polygon has only two nodes.
There are several points when such a cut is employed, such as when the perspective "view cone" of a camera is cut, when cutplanes are used and also when a section is generated.

I would say the solution would be to find the degenerated element and fix it or replace it.

I am not sure this is always correct - I get this error 64 when I have a lot of polygons switched on at once that otherwise all display perfectly in 3D when switched on separately or in smaller groups .
The same AC14 model when opened in ArchiCAD 15 generates no such error (though ArchiCAD 15 has other 3D issues at times with AC14 files that AC14 has no problem displaying)

Hi Paul
Having 15 on it's way;
Do you mind elaborating on what "other 3D issues" you've seen so far with V14 files migrated to 15?
Thanks

Hi - mostly pretty good, but a so far keep getting an inexplicable crash bug in 3D with a certain file , and any file it is referenced into to. Might be some archaic library part that evaded our search - but if AC14 is OK with an object's 3D geometry, not sure why AC15 would not be. Loads & behaves perfectly in 2D

Thanks Paul
I'll keep an eye out for similar behavior.

I'm experiencing this problem as well.

How would a guy go about finding the offending polygon, in order to fix or replace it?
