I am using a .tmp file that I originally created in V.10 and have since migrated to V.11 and now currently using V.13, I have unloaded the old libraries and the V13 library is loaded but I continue to get these Warning messages: File not found at line... in the 3D script.....

This is a GDL error.
In one of the library parts or scripts it tries to call or open some file. An it does not find it. Therefore gives the error message.
But I suppose you mean a TPL file, a Template File.

yes it is a .tpl file, my bad. So how can I fix a GDL error? do I download an upadate, load something?

Hi Kevin

Good to see you're still teaching ArchiCAD at Wood River High School!

Can you show a screenshot or tell us what it is looking for? It's most probably a macro or an image. You'll need to find that in your previous library and load it in the current one.

Cheers,
Link.

If the warning says fill not found (rather than file), see this thread:

Check your Doors for Fill parameters where the parameter says: "Missing".
Try to find a Door with which the error comes during 3D conversion.
Open its settings dialog and look over the parameters to find the problematic fill parameter. Set it to a fill that exists in the file. Then the 3D conversion should be fine.
If that's OK, then you will need to find all other problematic Doors in a similar manner.
