I am having an issue with the Twinmotion DATASMITH ADD-ON for AC28. It was working and now isn't (not loading at all). I have uninstalled and reloaded the ADD-ON along with AC itself with no success
The ADD-ON manager shows two versions that keeps reappearing even after I delete them, they show the following:
- The Add-On is already loaded.
and the other
- The file is an outdated Add-On that cannot be used with this Archicad version.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Operating system used: Mac Apple Silicon Ventura

Hi!
It can happen that you have 2 of the same Add-On installed, and e.g. that the broken one (or some old one) blocks the new Add-On.
Try the following:
1. Open the Add-On Manager
2. Select the faulty Add-On
3. Check the path like highlighted here:
4. Note the paths for all of the Datasmith Add-Ons appearing in the Add-On Manager
5. Close Archicad
6. Delete all Datasmith Add-Ons for which you've noted the path
7. Open Archicad & confirm that no Datasmith Add-Ons are loaded
8. Close Archicad
9. Install the Datasmith Add-On
10. Open Archicad and see if it works now
Hope that helps,

Hi Bernd,
Thanks for this!
I tried this but it didn't work, although I think the issue is similar to what you are suggesting.
Current error screenshot attached.

Hi Fraser,
Very weird... What's your exact AC28 version?

Hi Bernd,
Thanks very much for getting back to me!
I have solved the issue, it was a matter of upgrading to the latest macOS.
Cheers,
