In the installation of goodies for ac26 the extension with opus is no longer available, does anyone know why or where to get it?

What is 'Opus' ?

Is this a language specific add-on?

I am assuming it is a add-on that is separate to the 'Goodies' add-ons?

 

There is an issue with installing goodies with 26.

If you start Archicad before you install the goodies (maybe it is the same with other add-ons as well?) the goodies add-on will be installed but the menu commands will be missing.

 

See this post for explanation ...

Maybe it is doing the same with the 'Opus' add-on.

 

You might have to reinstall (repair) Archicad (do not start Archicad).

Then install the goodies and the Opus add-on .

Then apply latest update.

Then you can start Archicad.

Opus is a cost and budget software, it was included with the goodies up to ac 25, but in ac 26 the option to install no longer appeared

It must be language specific then, as I have never seen it in the INT or AUS Goodies.

 

Do you have the Goodies loaded and working?

The reason I ask is because there is an issue loading the goodies in 26.

You must install Archicad but not start it.

Install the goodies.

Install the latest update.

Now you can start Archicad and you will see the Goodies.

 

If you start Archicad before you install the Goodies, you will not see the commands in the menus.

 

So if you have only just tried installing the Goodies now and you can''t see any of them, you will have to re-install Archicad with the 'repair' option and follow the above procedure.
