BUG! DWG-DWF TRANSLATOR CAN'T HANDLE IP ADDRESS AS FOLDER PATH

Oscar Ferreira

I'm using a private VPN to access my Archicad template files. My DWG translator is located at my company's server. The path used to access the translator includes the server IP. Archicad translator is cutting the IP after the first period. So it can't find the file properly.

I am not sure there is anything you can do about this from the Archicad side.

But can you map that drive as a drive letter instead of the full IP address?

Then you can direct Archicad to the drive letter instead.
