Beginning with CSiBridge v23.0.0, the necessary components to open v16 and older models are no longer included in the installation due to requirements set out by Microsoft for their application certification program. CSiBridge v22.2.0 and earlier are not affected by this.
If you have a CSiBridge v16 or v15 model file (*.bdb) that you would like to open in CSiBridge v23 or newer, please follow the steps below. This places the necessary components into the installation directory such that old models can be open directly from within CSiBridge v23 or later.
- Download the SAPTRANS.zip file.
- Unzip this file into the CSiBridge installation directory (i.e. C:\Program Files\Computers and Structures\CSiBridge 23). After unzipping the file, there should be a new SAPTRANS folder inside the installation folder. If you are unable to unzip the contents into the installation directory then you likely do not have sufficient permissions. You should contact your IT department to assist with this.
- Run CSiBridge and open the old model file.
