Current configuration:
Fresh install of Infrastructure Design Suite 2014 Premium (
i.e., Civil 3D, Raster Design, etc.), on a brand new Dell Precision T3600 workstation (
Hex-Core Intel Xeon 3.2 Ghz, 32GB RAM, 256GB SSD, 3GB NVIDIA Quadro K4000 [Autodesk Certified video card], etc.).
Since install (
which includes SP1 from the installer dialog), I'm able to produce without issue, creating alignments, surfaces, profiles, assemblies... Until I add a Profile View, at which point I receive either an 0xffffff or 0x0000 exception. This error occurs if I create the Profile View, or if opening any drawing that contains a Profile View.
InfoCenter is off, I've verified that CommunicationCenter has correct DWORD values, and even gone so far as to perform a repair, a reinstall, reset original settings using secondary installer, and finally manually uninstalling everything and reinstalling fresh again. No Joy.
After more diagnosing, I was able to identify that the issue is only encountered with a particular C3D drawing. So I started another from scratch, making sure to WBLOCK out only AutoCAD entities I needed, and even re-created the styles I need to use. Only when I get to creating the Profile Views does this happen. I was also able to verify that it's an issue with displaying the Profile View. I opened a drawing that has a Profile View saved within, and when opening the drawing the grid lines, etc. are shown and then somehow hidden from view. The drawing is still fine. Only after a REGEN, which does bring back the missing line work, then the exceptions are raised again.
Any suggestions?
