Yes, I am still working with version 7. I'd love to upgrade, but the company does not have the means to upgrade.

Should my vollbild.bmp still have the size 512x512 or it does not matter?

So how to choose the those that are not fix? What kind of textures are they? I have been working with the files textur_1 -9, and they are laying there as both bmp and png files.

Ok. Let us say, I want to make a 3D model of a piece of paper that is maybe 420x420 and that has a print on it of a specific size. Is that possible? How to make the texture a specific size - so that the size is correct in Dietrichs, when you define a panel t.ex. 1 mm thick, with this texture. The image I have in mind is this archery target face, where the outer ring is 400 mm in diameter. - And also this tripple spot target face.

Yes, I checked the backup settings and I know now why, there was no backup from yesterday. Because the backup was set to each 24 hours. But if these 24 hours interval happens when the computer is turned off, of course the backup does not happen. And maybe the 24 hours interval was in the evening, and yesterday evening, I wasn't home, so computer was closed. So now I have changed the setting to back up, at log out (when I close or restart the computer). Another option could be every 12 hours.

Ok thanks anyway. I'll put in the windows and doors again. It takes a little time, but many of them are the same and 3th floor to 6th floor are copies of each other. So it's not too bad.

Hi. Below is a screen shot of the Windows explorer. I don't understand how to get the other "picture". There are two positions in this project - the first that I haven't started to work on and the second that I was working on.

Ok, thanks for the answer. If I look in the files folder of the project - is there any special type of file that I should look for? In the project (Dietrichs main window), there is only the position with the missing doors and windows.

Hi.

I was working on a presentation model of a quite big building. I was actually finished, with windows and everything. Then today, I wanted to add some other facadesolutions. Apparently the 3D model at some point got too heavy for the program or something - at least it crashed. When I opened the model again, it ask me if I want to save the backup as a new position. I said no, because it is my experience that there is normally nothing new in these backup positions. But I found that 7th floor had dissapeared, but I thought, ok there is not so much work in 7th floor. But then quite some time later, when I was finished with 7th floor I realizes that all the windows and doors had dissapeared in all floors....

Is it possible to recreate the model, as it was earlier - or is it too late now? I have checked my external HDD for a backup from yesterday, but found that my backup looks like it is not doing correct. It should take a backup every day - I thought I had set it up to do that - but it looks like not....

Ok - and how does that relate to Dietrichs - if it does?

What is BIM actually - and what is it related to Dietrichs?

Ok - that also works.

Yeah - I think I understand what you mean. The Dhpzen.exe is in windat directory and the BauDaten.exe is in the winexe directory. So if I move it to the windat directory, it should work? Yes correct, now everything seems to be ok. Thanks for the help!

Ok - I don't know if it means anything, but after installing that again, I rund construction program as administrator and then the database program from the construction program. But the desktop shortcut to the database program is not working. But maybe it doesn't matter. I don't use the database program very often, so I can run it from the construction program. At least it is running now.

Thank you for the help. Now I can install MSE again....

I have Microsoft Security Essentials. I'll try to switch it off and and try that setup.exe again.

Hmmm - then what to do now? The error message also talk about a file fpFlp30.ocx - what is that file?

No - I get the same message. It will automatically install in the right place, yes?

Ok thanks. Am I supposed to install all the patches? To install only the farpoint.exe didn't work.

Ok - the first problem I run into is that there is no such folder or files: on the CD: CD:\Support\Patches\Farpoint\Farpoint.exe. Not in my copy of the 7.03 CD and not in the 7.03 CD they have in Lithuania. Strange.(?)

....

Well - it runs without errors and it is very fast finished. But even if I run it as administrator it is the same. Hmmmm - what have gone wrong. Should I try to delete the Dietrichs from the C-drive and copy it from the old computer again?

Ok I tried that, but it still does not work. I can see in the Winexe directory that there is the fpSpru70.ocx file as mentioned in the error message.
