Please select the relevant 32 or 64 bit version for Manage, Simulate or Freedom. This can be installed on each individual machine which already has Navisworks 2013 installed, included in the installation, or included in a deployment, the readme contains more instructions.

Should you have any issues installing the service pack, please use the Installation and Licensing forums which are monitored by Autodesk experts.

UPDATE: After a couple of queries we just want to confirm that Service Pack 2 contains all the fixes from Service Pack 1, meaning you do not need to install that separately.

Hi Barry,

I'd suggest you either log a case through ADN or on the forums about this with a small, buildable sample and necessary steps/files.

I have been developing a Navis plugin from Navisworks 2010-13 and after installing SP2 for Navis 2013 my plugin crashes as soon as I try and launch it. Is there anything in the sp2 api updates that would cause this to be happening?

[Lee Mullin]

Hi Lylebegnaud, this is working fine for me. Can you make sure you have the Service Pack 2 for your version of Navisworks and the correct bitness (32 or 64 bit), and the exporters SP2 installed too?

You will also need the Plant 3D object enabler installed (http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/ps/dl/item?siteID=123112&id=19165270&linkID=14116968) and check your settings as described here (http://beyonddesign.typepad.com/posts/2011/06/so-my-model-is-there-you-say-i-just-cant-see-it.html).

Hi Lylebegnaud, Can you email us a sample file to beyond.design@autodesk.com.

When was this last working for you?

How are the materials showing up incorrectly, is it all materials, is it model specific or all plant models?

[Lylebegnaud]

After installing the service pack all materials in plant 3d started showing up incorrectly. I was having the same issue with navisworks. That's why I installed the service pack. Now I have no way of displaying materials correctly.
