Grasshopper - Archicad Live Connection stablity

[Josh Verran]

I'm just using the 90 day trial for Rhino-Grasshopper.

Finding Archicad to be very unstable.

I have the latest updates for each software package.

Getting a crash about every 15 minutes.

Have tested on two PCs and get same result on each.

New files, new setups, but same results.

Is anyone else experiencing this and/or have any suggestions?

Hello!

I have been using the connection for several AC releases however with 25 ac crashes constantly

I'll just make a humble wish here.

Please Persuade/Pay/Make a threat maybe (not plausible)/ at McNeill to make this thing sturdy, competitive, and make it a thing to continue - a promise.

This is the thing.

Although I haven't had time for this for ages, this still is the thing.

I have contacted McNeel and their response is shown below:

"The Archicad-Rhino connection is developed by Graphisoft directly. We have no control over this tool. I'd recommend contacting their technical support team directly and seeing if they are aware of it."

Oh, I was in the wrong impression about it. That's good, I guess now we can have it regardless of a third party, and get it improved.

So the AC tools inside GH are of Graphisoft programming too. But of course they are, they are the ones to have the knowledge for it, should have known better.

Anyway, I am happier paying my subscription now, after hearing this. Please keep up the work on AC-GH connection and polish it, make it solid (make that a wish from me). It will pay off eventually.

Thank You @Josh Verran  for the effort and info.

Hopefully GS Tech team will see this post and do something about it.
