basicStairTread_m.gsm error

Hello everyone!
It's my first post here so I'm sorry if it's in the wrong sub.
I'm having a problem with a file that my 3D model and sections are very slow and I really need some help.
From my Report we have many problems with some stairs, that reads the following (in portuguese):
Arestas insuficientes na geratriz.
na linha 407 no 3D script do arquivo basicStairTread_m.gsm. (Piso Esc. - 322)
Valor Y negativo na polyline.
na linha 407 no 3D script do arquivo basicStairTread_m.gsm. (Piso Esc. - 322)
O item de biblioteca não foi convertido corretamente (Piso Esc. - 322)

"Translating" it says something like this:

Insufficient edges in the generatrix.
 on line 407 in the 3D script of the basicStairTread_m.gsm file. (Floor Stair. - 322)
Y negative value in polyline.
 on line 407 in the 3D script of the basicStairTread_m.gsm file. (Floor Stair. - 322)
The library item was not converted correctly (Floor Stair - 322)

And it goes on an on, probably repeating every single stair we have in the building that's in and out of modules.

I was wondering if anyone had the same problem and how you managed to fix it.
We found the GDL basicStairTread_m.gsm library, and the line 407 Y item has something to do with an ON/OFF action, or something that gives positive or negative value results. I'm sorry if I can't be more technical and specific about it but I'm not fluent in GDL

If needed I can provide screen shots.
Ps.: Archicad 22 file.

Thank you!!

Hi,

Was this issue ever resolved? I am experiencing a similar error.

"Not enough edges in generatrix. At line 407 in the 3D-script of file basicStairTread_m.gsm. (TREAD-515)"
for every affected tread in the file.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

What happens if you start a brand new Archicad Project based on the default Template, and copy-paste the Stair into it? Does the error message still appear then?
