Hello,
I'm having a headache with Language Pack. I currently have Autodesk Building Design Standard which come with Autocad, Autocad MEP and Raster Design.
When I install the product (in French) and then add Autocad MEP Language Pack, I get this:
- Autocad French
- Autocad MEP French
- Autocad MEP English
- Raster Design French
Now, for Raster Design to work on both language, I have to launch a repair (because the language pack isn't installed during setup.exe, don't know why, have to run it afterward). That's a minor problem with an easy fix.
But my problem is, I don't have Autocad English. Since I only have 1 floating licence of Autocad MEP, my user want to run the basic Autocad, which I have more licences, unless they really need Autocad MEP.
I tried running the language pack for Autocad, but it says it's already installed because of the Autocad MEP language pack. If I uninstall Autocad MEP Language Pack then install Autocad Language Pack, I get Autocad English, but I lose Autocad MEP English.
I tried modifying the /language to "en-US", doesn't work. I did see a difference in the registry key and files between both installation (so Autodesk, why do you prevent installation of both!!!). I tried backing up the registry and file from Autocad English, uninstall Autocad English and install Autocad MEP English LP, then restore the registry and files. This didn't work, all I get is a windows installer for half a second.
Did anyone accomplish what I'm trying to do?
Thank you
