Anyone been brave enough to install yet?? Any problems/issues??
I'll probably install over the weekend as in the middle of a rush job and can't afford the time if anything goes wrong

Yes! Installed this morning. Very happy to see the background mask display issue fixed. Hooray developers! So far no issues or stability problems but I haven't tried too hard to find any.
There is a bug in 2013 where if you try and sort parcels by clicking any header in the toolspace, the parcel listing goes blank. More details in this thread, as well as a temporary fix/workaound that I came up with.
SP1 did not address this bug.
Don't know what happened to cause the attached but C3D seems to have updated

It installed fine for me.... major disappointment was that it didn't address the surface 2D elevation transparency issue. I'm told that it will definitely be resolved in 2014 though ! Only 5 or 6 months more to wait now... yay !
Thanks for the heads up on the surface transparency bug not being fixed - perhaps in March I'll start a thread with people's thoughts on what will be broken in the 2014 release (as well as how long it'll take to fix) - DRIVE command in 2012, Surface Transparency in 2013.....

It fixed several issues I was having with windows 8. No more crash when doing sections.
At least for today 🙂
And it fixed the point numbering issue!!!!

Neil, for future posts, please be sure to include the version in the subject line... C3D SP1 can apply to a number of prior versions, so I can say that yeah, I applied SP1 to C3D2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, & 2012.
As for the C3D2013 SP1, I just installed it. The first drawing I tested was encouraging....it has a sectionview with pipenetwork parts labeled, which stay labeled (previously the labels were lost). But then reality hit. The same issue I see with SP2.1 for 2012 has crept into 2013's SP1, namely some of the Dref objects do not synchronize at drawing startup and I must now manually issue a Resynchronize command. This same drawing opened correctly, as far as the Drefs are concerned, prior to SP1. I've quit looking for other things because this is a deal killer for me.
noted...:)

Yes. There is a bug that causes the view to twist, flip, and otherwise go haywire when switching from a layout to MS (when MS is non-WCS) --- this seems to have been fixed.
I took the liberty of changing the title (I think if holds on my post, anyway.)
I noticed that the C3D labels with masks are blacked out on "Viewing" the plot. However, it appears that it plots OK. Perhaps I had something turned off before.

The annoying geographic location bug has also been fixed...

Did this fix the problem when scaling objects? Half the time when I go to select the base point I get a message about how the scale factor was extremely small and was ignored, without ever getting a chance to actually enter scale factor.

Which one was that?
Where the geographic location reset itself to something other than 0° (usually around 4°) and the NAVVCUBE was slightly twisted

NOTE: You cannot run an automatic uninstall to remove this service pack. To restore your version of AutoCAD Civil 3D 2013 to its pre-update state, uninstall AutoCAD Civil 3D 2013 and reinstall it.
The line is shown above.....I still find it incredible that AutoDesk are unwilling (or unable) to provide uninstall functionality for service packs etc.

I have had Civil 3D 2013 freeze up a couple times today in different drawings. I installed the service pack yesterday, not sure if related.
