Is there a basic Profiler for AC9? (not 3D)

I've read:

"Graphisoft is releasing 5 new tools to help ArchiCAD users model and document more quickly... 3D Profiler with Profile Manager - $99.00"

-but i'm looking the old profiler, which was never $99!

The profiler I used on AC8 will not work on AC9, it seems.

thanks,

lochie,
My copy of AC 9 has the old Profiler in the goodies folder inside
the AC 9 folder.
Try using the add-on manager to navigate to that folder
and add profiler to your active add-ons.

Its probably better to actually move the profiler from goodies to the add-ons folder......

Looks like Cadimage from NZ.

It is CADImage, not Graphisoft. Wrong caption ... or, maybe most of the users in the area never heard of New Zealand?

Is this another case of 'tools hidden because of wrong work environment selected'?

Peter, I can't find Profiler *anywhere* in AC9. Are you saying you moved the one from 8 or 8.1 into that folder? Does it work?

I'm so confused with the announcement of a so-called "new" Profiler that they're now selling separately? What's going on here?

Wendy,
I did not move the AC 8.1 profiler into AC 9. I don't think it would work.
I have the AC 9 profiler in the Extras folder and must have moved it
there from the Goodies folder. I can't imagine why you cannot find it
in your copy of AC 9 . I just did a "find" on my Mac hard drive and I found
all three profilers. AC 6.5, AC 8.1 and AC 9. Profilers were where
they were supposed to be.

Peter,

Ah, OK, a system-wide search turned it up in the Tools folder, just an isolated file, as opposed to an entire folder under Goodies as in V8. Thanks.

I also see I've got "Profiler v9r2.zip" in a download folder, dated 4/1/05. What's that? Should I unzip it over what's currently in v9's directory tree?
