AutoCAD Architecture-MEP 2015 Object Enabler

Anyone know where this is?

We should have seen this by now.

Hi,

These are the current available Object Enablers for 2015 products. 

Cheers,

Volker.

Yes... and if you have a look, AutoCAD Architecture-MEP 2015 Object Enabler is not listed. So where is it?

[pendean]

If it's not listed then there isn't one available.
And before you ask, no one knows if or when it might be available. Check often.

[tony_csogroup]

You don't say Sherlock...

Hence the question.

[pendean]

Don't get mad at me: you asked a question that had an obvious answer that you missed LOL
THERE IS NO SECRET STASH: you wait like the rest of us 🙂

The Architecture and MEP Object Enabler is included within AutoCAD and all AutoCAD-based products.  So there is no need to post a separate installer unless there are some code changes that affect users of the OE.  For this release, there have been not yet been any changes (i.e. defect fixes) that affect the Object Enabler.  Therefore no OE Installer.

Are you looking for an OE Install just because it is usually present?  Or is there some specific issue you've encountered?

Thanks,  Bill Glennie

It never used to be...

In the previous version, all users of AutoCAD, AutoCAD LT and TrueView had to download the object enabler to see objected created in MEP.

Are you saying this has changed in all 2015 versions?

If so, why is it only the Architecture-MEP object enabler that is included?

Just for the record, I have tried to open an MEP drawing in AutoCADLT 2015 and TrueView 2015 and I get the proxy warning box and no objects are visible.

[BillGlennie]

The Architecture & MEP Object Enabler has been part of the AutoCAD, LT and TrueView initial release for a few years.  I do not know exactly when it started, but the 2013 and 2014 releases certainly included them.  The Architecture and MEP enabler has been part of AutoCAD for quite a few years, perhaps since 2007 or before, and we always synchronize our file format changes with the platform.  This means that there are no issues when exchanging files as long as the base AutoCAD file format matches.

If possible, please send this MEP drawing to me (bill(dot)glennie(at)autodesk(dot)com) and I will investigate why the objects are not appearing immediately in AutoCAD LT and TrueView. 

Thanks,  Bill

This is so confusing. Below are the download links for the previous versions:

2014

2013

http://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad/downloads/caas/downloads/content/autocad-architecture-...

2011

Although there doesn't seem to be a 2012 version, why where they supplied as a separate download if they are already supplied?

I will send you a sample file.
