.lsp file will not run in AutoCad2020

Hi All,

So I have a .lsp file that I have been using in AutoCAD 2014 for a few years, and it has been working fine. I have upgraded my computer and my software to 2020 and now the .lsp will load, but will not run. It says error; quit/ abort.

 

Anyone know how I can try and make it work? The original script was written in 2004. 

Thanks

"It says error; quit/ abort."

"The original script was written in 2004. "

 

Assuming your LSP is in SFSP.

And apart from what  @ennujozlagam replied, one of the possibilities is some system variable(s) used in your LSP have been updated/revised by Autodesk.

Can you upload your LSP file?

Hi, Thanks. Yes that is as far as I get. I then use CSNDGS command to run it, but that is where it comes unstuck. It should open a dialogue box.

Thanks

I am afraid your dialog file "c_sndgs.dcl" is missing.

Try linking the DCL file which seems to be missing with the lisp.

Thankyou!!! I had to move both files into C:\Program Files\Autodesk\AutoCAD 2020\Support to make it work, it wouldn't work from anywhere else. Thanks very much!

Please move your "custom files" away from the default AutoCAD directory.

Create a directory for your utilities and provide a support path (SFSP)
to the directory. Command OPTIONS --> Files tab --> Support File Search Path.
Also declare a Trusted Locations path to this same directory.

Now you are able to migrate/transfer/archive much easier...
