If your localization is ready, it’ll work. For instance for the Spanish language version, change XYZ to SPA. Change the XYZ to the three letter abbreviation for your localization.If neither of those versions are what you are looking for, try this: Well if you are looking for this particular version:
#Archicad 18 downloads upgrade
This post is just a curtsey to those few lonely users who somehow missed all the notices that it was time to download the upgrade (or for people who just upgraded from older versions). What follows is an augmentation of a post I mostly wrote back in June, 2014.Īre you ready for ArchiCAD 18? The wait is officially long over. But hey, that’s the cool thing about ArchiCAD: it doesn’t matter if you are upgrading from the previous version or from some ancient version from before USB drives were a thing, Graphisoft will let you do that. **Seriously, as recently as 2012 I was dealing with a firm that still had 21-pin keys because they hadn’t upgraded since USB drives became standard technology.

And caveats: things could be special for you and your region, and this is all just my opinion and experience I am not an official voice of anything but me. If you are at all confused about what all that bold text means, ask your local reseller or distributor.

There is no new hardware key coming either-unless you have an ancient 21-pin key**, are buying a new seat, or have clearly discussed a new key with your local agent and paid whatever associated fees are required. Whether you are on subscription or upgrading from any older version of ArchiCAD, there is no disc coming in the mail. But then while having beers with some fellow ArchiCAD users on Friday night (four of us BIM Manager types got together to talk about templates), someone told a story about a user waiting a week for ArchiCAD 18 discs to come in the mail after finally upgrading from some older version. I felt like I missed the window for the following blog post and it slowly slid down the queue of half-finished articles (I figured I’d resurrect it when ArchiCAD 19 debuts next year). Now it’s October and ArchiCAD 18 has made the subtle shift from the new version to the current version. But then my life got hectic and I essentially paused the blog for the summer. But I took that post down because I wanted to wait until more people could download ArchiCAD 18-at the time not enough versions were available. In fact if you were quick you might have noticed a post from June that temporarily mentioned some of what’s below.
