IES 2017 is no longer works with Sketchup

Post by TrooperCooper »

I'm building my models in Sketchup which I've done for the past two years, I've just updated to the lastest software and when trying to export a model from Sketchup to IES I'm presented with a new error. It identifies all of the rooms and it even loads up IES but before the model is presented, a box appears saying:

(local computer path)".asd contains and incorrect path."

and then IES loads nothing. I've checked the export folder from the local path and there is a .XML file but it refuses to be loaded into a new IES document. Any ideas on how to fix or get around this?

Use Navigator > Import BIM. Follow the steps.

The Navigator was a good method for importing your vexml files while the plug-in had this little glitch, it is resolved in latest VE 2017 FP 3 so you can grab this version to get working plug-in again
