The ACE library is a great collection of objects but I don't need all of them.
I have not had any luck in the past extracting the LCF file.
Has anyone succeeded in doing this?

Hello Barry

The new link will give you access to a torrent, if you download it you will get a library in "folder" and not in lcf that you could manage as you want.

Thanks Frédéric,
I'll give it another try.

Thanks Andy to be back in your site here

When I tried to find/download from this link all I got was this nasty "title bar" installed on my desktop when I deliberately said NO to it.
Did not have trouble last time I downloaded ACE library,(I'll guess now maybe 2yrs ago?).

I got the torrent to download - only took about 3 hours!
But guess what - the file is still an LCF.
So back to square one.

On Mac It works

Sadly, Andy has said that it's probably never going to be possible to extract the library container on Windows because of special characters which we PC guys can't handle. 😉

Hi Vistasp

Yes that is sad.
Because I just got the lcf to re-download.
(I think I screewwed it up the first time and got funky bar in browser.)
It would be nice if could strip out all the duplicates, but that is probably
beyond my capabilities anyway.
The lcf does work ok in 14 for the most part it seems.
Isn't it that the doors and windows are not sensitive to some new functions in 12?
Only took about 15 minutes to download zip of lcf. which was nice.
Wonder why it took Barry three hours??
