Dummy Legs

[TheMonk]

We are having a real bad experince with using dummy legs in XM 8.9.3.03. Any one else have these problems?

Thx:mad:

8.9.3.03 or 8.9.3.30???

we are using 3.30 and we have the same troubles...
there is a thread on this here, just have to find it again.

what we do for now is take the dummy leg off the model. run the isos
then put it back on the model.
pain the ass yes, but if you dont have too many dummylegs it not that bad...

Here's something to try from a previous thread:

I'm not sure if anyone is still having this problem. I found what seems to be a fix for dummy legs and trunnions. I replaced XM files w/ versions used in 2004 then added the pieces of XM files to sptout to get trunnions to iso


Sptout.ebs
Program Files\Bentley\Plant XM\Modules\Base\xchg\pcf


Supdummy.ebs
Program Files\Bentley\Plant XM\Modules\Base\common


I haven't tried it yet so I'm not sure if it works. I'll give it a try tonight.

Just verified that it works.

thanks

i know this is nearly 12 months later, but any chance you can post the modified files?

Does anyone have info on what changes need to be made in the .ebs files mentioned to have the dummy legs and trunnions appear on the isometrics (with respect to xm version)

Thanks

See attached for my changes.

Thanks with the help; this worked after I incorporated my PCI.ini file changes into the one you sent.
