- Wow, I've actually made it one blog a day all week!!
Probably think I have nothing better to do with my time.
Well actually I am grounded at present waiting for the arrival of my first child as he is due any day now.
This is Aaron Strongitharm, time he made an appearance!
So while I have been patiently waiting I have got my AUGI and AU class papers together and hopefully giving you some good posts this week.
*Anyway back to some Civil 3D stuff.*
It seems that the Update 1 (aka service pack) has restored the codes file in Civil 3D to the US one.
What do I mean?
The codes file will ditate whether you see a feature line code in a corridor as either ETW (US terms) or EC (British term).
There is a backup of the file that was installed with the UK and Ireland Country Kit and also your local country kit that you should have installed.
With Civil 3D not open.
Go to one of these paths depending on your operatiing system
On XP
C:\Documents and Settings\\Local Settings\Application Data\Autodesk\C3D 2009
On Vista
C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\C3D 2009\enu
Rename the C3DStockSubassemblyScripts to a temporary name as a backup
Change the C3DStockSubassemblyScripts_en-GB (or your country) to C3DStockSubassemblyScripts
Start Civil 3D and the British codes etc are then applied
