Dear Archi-Talkers,

We have released ArchiCAD 8.1 R2+ INT and the USA patches which address some inconsistencies you reported to us since the release of ArchiCAD 8.1 R2/v2. The other localized versions will follow them successively. This is a full patch that can be used for updating all the existing 8.1 versions (R1, R1 Patch, R2, R2 Hotfix) within the same language version. It means this patch contains all bug-fixes released after 8.1 R1/v1.
The updated US library is also available!

Note: ArchiCAD 8 users first have to upgrade to ArchiCAD 8.1 before they can use this patch for having the most current version of ArchiCAD.

Compatibility note:
This patch does not update IFC add-ons. The R1/v1 version of the IFC add-on is incompatible with later versions of ArchiCAD. If you utilize IFC we highly recommend downloading the IFC 2x2 Add-On for AC 8.1 R2/v2 to avoid serious problems. The IFC 2x2 add-on is available on our website for download:

For more info please visit: http://www.graphisoft.com/support/archicad/downloads/
Thank you for calling our attention to these problems, please, do not hesitate to let us know if you encounter difficulties with ArchiCAD.

Akos,

To you and all of the staff at Graphisoft, a very, very big thank you!

I missed this post yesterday, but have downloaded R2C and just finished running a few tests...

BGArchiCAD is working much better! My lists open in ArchiCAD and update in PlotMaker...without any workarounds!!!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

The posting above states:

The page at http://tr.graphisoftus.com/ says:

The following ArchiCAD 8.1 Updater (Build 2284) will update these non-EDU ArchiCAD 8.1 versions ...


Would you please clarify this inconsistsancy.

I have an educational version and the updater, as stated on the later page above, does not work.

Thank You

Dear Archi-Talkers,
In case not explicitly indicated otherwise downloadable updaters are for the FULL version of ArchiCAD only.
Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Is this the "AC81-R2-LIB-USA.zip" or a newer one?

This may have been addressed somewhere else before, but why oh why can't the versions be numbered with some semblance of logic? The R's and the V's and the plusses are just ridiculous! Please, please start numbering with decimals (i.e. 8.1.3). You already have them in the "Get info" dialogue box, use them. Having to look up a build number is just goofy.
