Issues and Limitations for All Users
When Autodesk Civil 3D 2006 is uninstalled on users' workstations, you should delete
the desktop shortcut icons for both Autodesk Civil 3D 2006 and Viz Render for Civil 3D.
Double-clicking the Autodesk Viz Render icon produces no results, but double-clicking
the Civil 3D icon might incorrectly start another Autodesk product that is still installed.
When Autodesk Civil 3D 2006 is uninstalled from users' workstations, Autodesk Viz
Render for Civil 3D 2006 is also uninstalled automatically. This behavior is as designed.
However, when users attempt to start Autodesk VIZ 2006 or VIZ Render for ADT 2006,
an error similar to the following is displayed.
Autodesk ACT libraries were not properly registered.
To resolve the error, users should repair VIZ 2006 installation (from Windows Control
Panel > Add or Remove Programs).
When you deploy a network-licensed version of Autodesk Inventor 10, two Autodesk
Inventor icons are displayed on the desktop. If a user double-clicks an Autodesk
Inventor 10 icon, a license error message is displayed. To start Inventor 10 without
encountering an error message, users should double-click the Autodesk Inventor
Professional 10 desktop icon.
When you deploy a network-licensed version of Revit Building 8, you must map a path
on users' workstations to the shared network location of the Content folder. If the folder
is not mapped, users will get messages similar to the following. Users should dismiss the
messages, map the drive, and then restart the product.
The default template file specified in the 'File Locations' section of the Settings-Options
dialog (\\xxhp5474\Autodesk\Revit 8\Content\Imperial Templates\default.rte) does not
exist.
Followed by:
AccuRender material library not found.
To import Autodesk Inventor 10 files into Autodesk VIZ 2006, users should install and
use the add-on program supplied with Autodesk Inventor.
To import or link Autodesk Revit data to Autodesk VIZ 2006, you must first export a file
from Autodesk Revit in the AutoCAD 2004 drawing file format. Material assignments do
not display when the drawing is opened in AutoCAD, but are stored in the drawing and
display when the file is opened in Autodesk VIZ 2006.
