Dear All,
Trying to install Object enabler for AutoCAD 2018, it doesn't give any options to install.
I'm guessing that it won't start because I'm using AutoCAD 2018 LT. Am I doing something wrong?
I need to do some mods for an old project with mixed AuoCAD MEP 2014 objects scattered and a heavy load of regular dwg.
What should I do to just show these objects? I don't even need to modify them.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Let's see what do you find down there.
Here is your file in AutoCAD Architecture 2018 (MEP equivalent): doesn't it look exactly the same?
Please explain what it is you are expecting? There is nothing there now in the big gap in any of the 6 layouts in the file, there is nothing 3D in the file from what I can search for, the only Proxy Object in the file is from something called MAPS_SOLIDS and the plans/details seem correct and match modelspace content. ACA2018 did not report anything missing here when I opened the file.
Yes, the toilet exhaust duct is indeed missing
Head over to the MEP forum and see if the MEP users over there can shed some light on it for you: https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/autocad-mep/ct-p/2036 it appears those of us without MEP can do nothing about it.
Hi @Anonymous,
Thank you for posting your file here for analysis. I opened the file in AutoCAD 2018 and verified that you have some Fabrication CADmep content in the file, which is different than AutoCAD MEP content.
Could you please install the Fabrication CADmep object enabler, and see if the objects show up for you?
Additionally, when I opened the file, the program indicated that the file was last saved with a non-Autodesk program. Is it possible that some of the objects that aren't displaying were created with the third-party software that was used?

Regarding to that 3rd party, it´´s my colleagues using draftsight
Now it works. Thank you very much.
