Raster Design w/ Civil 3D Networked

[Terrain_IaPLS]

Question for someone using Civil 3D networked via LicMgr and also using Raster Design, and binding Raster to Civil 3D.

We have the client deployment set up to bind Raster Design to
LDDT, Civil 3D, and Map 3D network deployments. Performing
client installs in appropriate order (LDDT, Map3D (as applic.), and Civil 3D first) soRaster Binds to the parent product.

Problem, we're not getting Raster menu to bind to Civil 3D like
the other products. Adding the Raster (Image) .mns/.mnc does not invoke Raster Design from Civil 3D. If the deployment is taged in Raster Design for Civil 3D (i.e. the toggles you can turn off (like Arch. , Build. Syst. etc.)) why
is Civil 3D not compiling the Raster (Image) AecCo menu, and
therefor Civil 3D will not invoke menu.

I'm obviously missing something very plain, yet can'not clear my mind. Would apprieciate any suggestions?

Thanks,

OK, I'll just reply to self.
Seams obvious this is an installation order issue with regard
to product tree. We also had the Civil Toolspace issue with regard to using MAP3D and Raster Design, and referenced the APPLOAD for the AeccUiLand15.arx

Yet, again, our installation order was an issue per TS84648, so back to unistalling and reinstalling the product's.

Key, Map3D then LDDT, Then Civil 3D, Then Raster, Then Civil and Survey add-ons for LDDT. And lastly reinstall DWF viewer that one of those corrupts. Not to mention your Revit or Arch./Bldg. syst/Mech./Inventor order. Oh, what fun.

Still appreciate any info on Raster Binding to Civil3D that someone may have ?? Would be appreciated. Thanks!

OK, we give.

Resolved the MAP3D and LDDT order problem, and Raster binds as should in the toolspace w/ Proctor as an Image Tab
under Map3D, soooooo;

So what gives regarding CIVIL 3D ?? If we add any Raster Design menu source, nothing invokes (i.e. it's not binding) from Civil 3D. Really would like to resolve.

Can't believe anyone that has Civil3D (incl. Map3D) and has
Raster Design is not having a Raster Menu binding issue in
Civil3D per a Network lic. mgr.

Again, would greatly appreciate.

I have LDDT Civil3d and raster installed and they work.
I have seen some funky raster design installs that had to be redone but they worked then. I don't think this is anything more than the infamous anomaly.

Geesh James,

We do as well...

Guess it was more "info" on what we were dicussing than an issue of patience. Taken the wrong way, not my problem.

Have worked many thread discussions here over the years this way, have had NO-ONE call posted ingo to be an issue.

John,

Appreciate the info.
Assuming your networked w/ client deployments, did you then get Raster Design install that says "Raster Design 2005 on Autodesk Civil3D" ??

The install is there, yet for some reason, CIVIL3D will not accept the Raster Menu, nor even bind on client install.
Had thought it was an install order issue, and was for us as stated, yet did not resolve CIVIL3D.

Again, appreciated !! Ho-Ho-HO.
