Dear Talkers,
Before going into any more guessing I would like to update you on the facts (from GS website):

Budapest, September 14, 2009 – GRAPHISOFT announced today that ArchiCAD® 13, the next version of its award-winning Virtual Building™ modeling solution, has started to ship on both Windows® and Macintosh® platforms today.

The International, German, US, Australian, New Zealand, French, Italian, Austrian, Hungarian, Finnish and Russian versions of ArchiCAD 13 are shipping this week.

This means that probably your versions will arrive to you from our sales partners within a couple of days or a week from the shipping day, depending on your geographical location.

Regarding other GS products like MEP, EcoDesigner or VBE I can tell you the following:
1. MEP Modeler for AC13 (free upgrade available from the WEB from the shipping date of each localized AC13 starting September 14th. For new customers shipping starts on September 17th )
2. EcoDesigner for AC13 (free upgrade available from the WEB from the shipping date of each localized AC13 starting September 14th. For new customers shipping starts on September 17th )
3. VBE multiplatform for AC13 (shipping starts and free upgrade available from the WEB from October 12)
4. C4D add-on is planned for mid November. If available before we will inform you

Regards,
Miklos Sovenyi-Lux
VP, Product Management

Exciting news for those of us who have been wondering when the Mac version will be arriving.

Thanks!

Hi Miklos,
thanks for the news.
Now, would you have some more info about the upcoming AC12 hotfix?
I was told through the proper channel (i.e. bug report to my reseller > logged with GS tech sup > reply from GS tech sup) it was to be released in September.

Cheers
Francois

Miklos,
Does this mean that the AC13 version of MEP will include a AutoCAD MEP 2010 compatable plugin? Trying to convince our MEP consultants to use BIM is hard enough without having to get them to use old software just so it's compatable with our plugin!

Maybe you can download it from here and see?
