Revit Based Installation (Ribbon/Toolbar/Location)

Description:

Using HydraCAD buttons cause errors like Loading Shared Parameters for Pipes Failed....


Solutions:

Cause:

HydraCAD software uses the Revit default and definitions.(Coding).

Revit defaults and definitions are written in English.

If Revit is set  up with any other language selection than English it will break or software.

For example the English word pipe does not cross over to many other languages, and as one can imagine. We use this a lot in our software. 

Solution:

To fix the break in the program:

  • completely uninstall Revit for every year that English was not set as the language
  • reinstall the Revit for every year
    • starting with earliest (20xx) working up to the most current (20xx).
    • Set English as the language.
