AutoCAD Civil 3D

[#1]

Having trouble finding the correct place to put the FEET, INCHES, METRIC, custom scales in the registry. Can anyone help? I'm not sure if its any of the following or is it somewhere else now?

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Autodesk\AutoCAD\R19.0\ACAD-B000:409\

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Autodesk\AutoCAD\R19.0\ACAD-B000:409\AEC\7.0\AecBase70\Scales\

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Autodesk\AutoCAD\R19.0\ACAD-B000:409\

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Autodesk\AutoCAD\R19.0\ACAD-B000:409\AEC\7.0\AecBase70\Scales\

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Autodesk\AutoCAD\R19.0\ACAD-B000:409\Scale List]

This is the location I have. The attached file adds the scales that I need. I found this somewhereon the forum a while ago so I don't know who to give the credit to.

Edit: Autodesk won't let me post the file so I have renamed the extension. Save the .doc to your computer and rename it to .reg then you should be able to run it.

This location was correct for 2012, but it's not working for 2013. I think they changed the override function. When i reset the scale list it puts the default scales in rather than adding the overridden values sent in your file. Hopefully someone from Autodesk chimes in on this, because I have standards i have to deploy.

Figgured it out!!!! On the very first scale, (the "0" grouping) you have to set the scale type to 3. If you don't it doesn't import the custom scale list. YAY ME!
