Did you install the AC23 version? The second image indicates an AC22 version (22.0.0.6026):

Here is the User Guide:

Go to page 5 and make sure to follow every step of it, including uninstalling any earlier version.

Archicad installed is 23, there is no other version installed
this file that indicated me I already installed it before
and a problem that you didn’t comment on is that there’s no Achicad tab in Grasshopper

Hi,

Thank you for your question! I hope you are doing well during these trying times!

From the screenshot, it looks like the addon was not properly installed. I'm wondering how did you get the palette running on ARCHICAD, but no ARCHICAD tab in Grasshopper? Could you elaborate on how did you make it?

If you are sure that there is no other Rhino or ARCHICAD installation on your machine, rather than Rhino 6 and ARCHICAD 23, I suggest you download the addon here and start the installation.

After successfully installing it, the ARCHICAD tab should be presented in Rhino.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Best regards,
Minh

I have had Rhino 7 and Rhino 5 installed and also AC 24 3008.
I have installed the Live Connection plugin.

There is a Grasshopper Connection in AC 24 running.
No pallette in Rhino 7 nor Rhino 5.
No files have been installed in AppData/Roaming/Grasshopper/Libraries.

I have uninstalled both Rhino 5 and Rhino 7.

I have installed only Rhino 5.
I have installed Grasshopper plugin to Rhino 5.

I have installed the Live Connection plugin.

There is a Grasshopper Connection in AC 24 running.
No pallette in Grasshopper in Rhino 5.
No files have been installed in AppData/Roaming/Grasshopper/Libraries.

Is there a way to install the Grasshopper plugin alone?

Dear Simon,

Thank you very much for your question!

As of now, the Grasshopper - Archicad Live connection addon does not support Rhino 7 yet. As of now, it can only work with Rhino 6. I am very sorry for the inconvenience!

Please let me know if you have any further questions. Thank you very much for your understanding!

Best regards,
Minh

hi everyone

my problem is similar, I have Archicad 24 and Rhino 6, I installed the Grasshopper-Archicad 24 Live Connection plugin but the palette is not appearing in Grasshopper

I understand that you must use the most current version of grasshopper, how do I update?

Hello,

Thank you very much for the question! And don't worry, your English is perfectly understandable!

As I can see, the error message happens because you're still using an outdated Rhino version (6.7). The latest release should be 6.34 by now. You can check it by navigating to Help menu in Rhino 6 > click Check for Updates. This will show you the latest build available to download. Once Rhino is updated, the Connection should appear in Grasshopper.

Please let me know if it helps with the issue!

Best regards,
Minh
