Ya, strange. I just received the AC installation DVD in the mail, yet I still can't download it. Oh well, I've got it so I won't complain.

It seems the download is finally available. I am still excited for the box, but the DL will have to suffice for now.

All I can say, I'm sorry that I installed AC16 already and ported my AC15 project to it... It crashes all the time! Very unstable, haven't seen such a poor release in a long time!? it gets worse if you add Cadimage add-ons! I hope they release a hotfix very soon...

Where is it available to download? My "myarchicad" only shows V15. I have rec'd my disk in the mail, but unfortunately my new MacBook Pro w/retina display doesn't have a disk drive! I never thought I'd miss it. . . . I suppose I could fork over more $$ for an external one, but it'd sure be nice not to have to!

I see a 16 button at the top of the page on myarchicad.com, Tom... just a weird little button, not a big heading like the other software...

Hi Karl -

I feel silly for asking again, but I'm not seeing it on my "myarchicad.com" page. . . In my profile, I used "US" (because that's where I am!); could that be it?

Hope things are great for you Karl & you're having a nice summer!

Thanks,
Tom

OK, I think I may have figured out why some can see AC 16 and some can't. I registered again using a different email address and saw the option to chose "International" version vs. "American" version. The first time I chose "American" and only V15 is available. The second time I chose "International" and V16 IS available. Once you register, I don't think you can go back and change the setting - at least that I found.

So is there a difference between the two and will my USB key plug know the difference? I just looked at the install DVD that I received in the mail and it is the US version. . .

Thanks,
Tom
