Archicad 25 on Monterey crashes when exporting DWG or DXF Build 4013

[Sebastian Monroe]

Hi all,

When I am trying to export to dwg or dxf from Archicad 25 on Monterey it crashes just after you choose skip the .shx files.  I have not really had to export to Autocad for a very long time but I did not expect this response.  The file contains zones, a stair case object.  It also contains couple of other objects one for an underground tank and another for carparking access assessment.  It is a feasibility drawing so not really that complicated.  Can anyone suggest what the issue might be?

Does anyone have a dwg template file that I could use as a source to help with export?  I thought this might be a work around?

I have yet to upgrade to the latest build because of the bug with the custom drawing label.  I am unsure whether to upgrade to test the file or not.  Any help welcomed.

Kind regards,

Sebastian Monroe

@Sebastian Monroe You should be correct by upgrading your Archicad 25 to the latest build 5005.

Also, is this happening on macOS 12.3?

There have been various reports in the Community about crashes on this latest macOS version:

Found error. Some of my attributes had numbers outside of the recommended range. Problem solved.

There is a recommended range for attribute numbers?

Is there any information you can share please?

We have the same problem with on a 25-project (windows). We haven't started using 25 yet so it's a pilot project. Using our 23 dwg translator...Will have a look at the attributes but I'm also interested in the "recommended range"...never heard of it.

@Mats_Knutsson try if you can find the answer in the following book: https://www.amazon.com/Archicad-AutoCAD-Users-v15-US-MacKenzie-ebook/dp/B007AMMOPA/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?cr...
