No opening in 3d

Anonymous
Not applicable
I have placed a double door in a curved wall. The 2d representation looks fine but when I switch to 3d there is no door opening. In order to even see the doors I have to change the 3d swing to something other than 0° and then you see the doors swung open and a rock wall behind them (see example below). Any ideas on how to remedy this?

Thanks

Shame on you, Karl!

We have until the end of this weekend to send a bug report into the 8.1 Beta Team on this!
And when you send it in, could you ask them to correct the spelling of the "Treshold" parameter at the same time, too?

You're right. I've tried a couple of the doors provided with the stock AC8.1 US Library, same result - no opening. I tried one of my own custom doors - it looked fine.

I can't believe nobody caught this bug during the Beta test (me, being one of the testers). I guess not too many testers use the stock library of doors?!
Neither did I, because all is well in stock Int library ...

Bug confirmed.

The doors affected in the US library are commercial and metal doors in the "Doors 81" library. The "Doors Classic 81" Library work.

Please re-check with the US library.

It is being corrected.

Confirmed, the "Doors Classic 81" are fine, just seems like many of the doors in "Doors 81" are affected in the US version.

I was out of town this weekend, and wasn't able to get the bug report in before the Beta Team shut down the report center.

Hopefully the Beta/Development Team monitors this forum.

I guess the work-around would be to use the "Classic" doors.
