Searching for old splash screen images

Matthew Johnson

For a conference presentation I have coming up I'm looking to include all of the splash screens of the various ArchiCAD (Archicad/ARCHICAD) versions I've used over the years. Does anyone have a collection handy? v5 - v28...

Not the splash screens, but the box art can be found here ... https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Getting-started/Archicad-versions/ta-p/304207

Archicad 18 had the 30th anniversary feature where you were able to change your splash screen to all the previous ones.  That might get you half of them at least.

Thanks Scott. Remembered that old feature but didn't feel like going back and installing 18.

It has been an interesting exercise tracking them down because the presentation is a comparison with Revit and many of their versions use the same splash image with just a change in the date.

 

Currently still missing 7, 8, 9, 12, 14, and 16

Nowadays because of the ease of downloading several gigs of file size online users are not getting the physical box already. 😆

In the end what is your Objective?
ArchiCAD 9 onwards
