[Anonymous]

We are using AutoCAD Map 3D 2010 64 bit on windows 8 64 bit system. And develop a  program in Visual Studio 2010 Environment,  When I start Map 3d In debug mode, I meet a fatal error,  MgResourceLoadFailedException *_ptr64, and can't start map3d,  Even In a blank vc project, it still occur,   please let uw know how to over come this issue.

Hi,

I can only say that starting with Windows 8 (or higher) I can't run Map3D or Civil3D in debug mode because the acadmap.arx blocks something.

There is now way (dear Autodesk: no way for years now!) to run Map3D or Civil3D in debug mode of Visual Studio when you are running Windows 8, Windows 8.1 or Windows 10.

I've chosen the way to have a virtual system running Windows 7 and do the development there.

The alternative (call it bad workaround) could be not to start Map3D from the Visual Studio, but instead start Map3D, then change back to Visual Studio and use option "attach to process" (>>>details<<<) .,.. that works, but is really annoying each time you start debugging.
