!Restored: ArchiCAD 11 Library Updated

[Aaron Bourgoin]

If you haven't checked already, GS have released an updated library - for the US version anyway. It's dated July 4

Thanks, Aaron. So, I guess this means that the automatic check for updates only checks for program updates, not library.

Thanks, Duane! Missed that new panel. Mine is set to check for program or library - but only weekly, which explains why I didn't get a heads up. I'm glad to see they made this so flexible...even if this isn't where I would have looked for it. 😉

Hmmm...but this doesn't work anyway: I've installed the new library, and it still tells me I'm out of date and need to download the update. (The famous "Jan 1, 1970" library message.)

Cheers,
Karl

PS Did anyone find Release Notes anywhere to tell us what got fixed or changed in the lib update?

I noticed these were missing too -- I'm not about to update anything unless I know what's been changed!

The Library Update is also now posted at the GSUS Technical Resources Web Site.

Also available is the ArchiCAD 11 Installer for those without DVD drives. Windows only at the moment.

Aha. The automatic update inability to detect the library version seems to be a Windows-only issue/bug. On my Mac (PPC), it correctly detects the version of the installed library. But, there is still a bug on the Mac: the new library is recognized as having a date of 2007-07-04 but the download library reports it has a date of 2007-07-06, so it tells me to download again (erroneously).

Anyone else missing all the lights in the Lightworks library?

Why the missing line in Detail Part Marker_NCS 11 was not fixed in this library update?!
May be in the new hot Fix 11?

Missing here too. I just copied them over from the old one.
