NWD file with search sets crashing Navisworks Freedom

A client is having issues with Navisworks Freedom crashing when accessing the search sets saved within the NWD file. Looking for possible solutions or explanations. Case follows:

1. Open an NWC file using Navisworks Manage 2012 on a 64-bit, 16GB RAM, Windows 7 operating system..

2. Import search sets (XML files).

3. Save the file, with search sets intact, as an Navisworks 2012 NWD. File size is 3.63 MB.

4. Open NWD file using Navisworks Freedom 2013 on a 32-bit, 4GB RAM, Windows 7 operating system. Select a search set. Navisworks Freedom errors out and closes.

 

5. Open NWD file using Navisworks Freedom 2013 on a 64-bit, 8GB RAM, Windows 7 operating system. Select a search set. Naviswork Freedom errors out and closes.

6. Open NWD file using Navisworks Freedom 2012 on a 64-bit, 16GB RAM, Windows 7 operating system. Select a search set. Search set is found within the model. No errors.

 

Is anyone aware of any limitations for creating a file using a higher bit/RAM machine and working within that file using a lower bit/RAM machine? Or any reasons for the crashes? Or any solutions?

This sounds like a known issue with Freedom 2013 specifically, as discussed here. It has been addressed in the 2013 Service Pack which should be available shortly.

 

Hope that helps,
