There's a small update to my plugins at http://www31.brinkster.com/decapod

Minor changes and updates for EU number formats on Cab and Buffer builders.

Also includes 1.0 of the bridge builder plugin.

Thanks Paul for the update! (I'll try tonight or tomorrow)

oops - a minor bug fix as the bridge builder also wouldn't work with , as decimal separator

May be it's late (I'm about to go to bed) ... but I don't see where to download the new version of the plugins.

First one on the 3d canvas downloads page, dated 17th Dec.

You may need to press Ctrl+F5 to refresh the page properly.

Hi Paul,

F5 was needed to refresh the page.
But the zipped files still have the same creation date (for exemple the date of TSBuff6 is 20 Nov 2006).

If the file is 491Kb it is correct.
I just tried it and TSBuff6 was dated 18th Dec

Most have not changed and the new file includes TSBridge6.dll

I downloaded the updated plugins.

TSBridge is working very good using comma separators in the default values (small values but nevermind it's there to be customized).

TSCabBuilder shows comma separated values when "Bunker" is selected.
But it doesn't work ("6 - overflow").

TSBuffer Builder is not working either.

There might still be some dot separated values?

Hi All,

I have just put another update of the plugins on my website.

There were definite bugs due to the API changes in the buffer builder and engineer plugins which should now be fixed.

I couldn't find anything wrong with the cab builder when using comma decimals - could you try it again and make sure there are no dots in any of the values when either cab or bunker are selected?

Hi Paul,

Unfortunately, same error messages.

I really need to know exactly at what point the error is happening - as soon as you select the plugin or when you press OK?

Also - try deleting these registry keys:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\VB and VBA Program Settings\3DCPlugin\TSBuffers

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\VB and VBA Program Settings\3DCPlugin\TSCabs

There is another minor update to the cab and buffer plugins on my website, but this only corrects a few of the formatting problems for european decimal formats once you have removed the registry entries.

I start with the good news.

I removed this key (txtCoal, txtEBack2, txtEBack3, txtEuP2, txtEup3, txtWid2 and txtWid3 had a dot) : it works now !

The key is not in the registry

The TSBuff error occurs as soon as the plugin is selected (with TSCab, I could see the parameters window).

Found it!

The buffers bug is fixed for 6.6.5 and 7.0

Thanks Paul for your plugins updates.

They work in 3DC 7.0 but the 6.6.5 Plugin zip file is corrupted.

Fixed the zip file - it's a little bit smaller now - 485k

Good! Now it works for 7.0 and 6.6.5.
