Microstation 3D Files Running Extremely Slow

January 12, 2016, 1:17 pm

I have been using SS3 to design a roadway and have had very long wait times on almost anything that deals with processing a corridor. Sometimes it can take 30-45 minutes to do one task. Such tasks can include, opening the file, creating a proposed terrain model off of my design, etc. I thought this was the norm until I found a nice youtube channel CivilTSG, which I think is run by bentley. Everything that they do in that channel runs crazy fast. I have a deadline I am trying to meet coming up and would greatly appreciate any help on why my project is crawling along.

Here is some information:

3D File sizes (broken up into two because the file would be too slow to work with):

File1: 36.5 MB

File2: 29.6 MB

Computer specs:

Also it should be known that I copy all files to my computer to help with speed too. If I worked off of the company network, the files would take too long to do anything.

Any direction would be greatly appreciated. I am hoping there are just some settings somewhere I can change to help all of this out.

P.S.

After trying to dig a little deeper I noticed that when watching my processes on task manager it looks like Microstation is only using 25% of my processor and only 2.3 gb of my 32 gb ram when trying to process something (this time it has been stuck on trying to open a cross section view for around 30 minutes). Is this normal, or is Microstation being limited on how much resources it can use from the computer?

Conversion of LAS to POD then POD to another format

We have LAS files being converted int POD files for compression purposes.  Then to view those files within a web application, it is my understanding the user must have MicroStation.  Is this true?     If it is, can the POD files be converted to some other format that does not require special software to view (and without the info being so large - such as the LAS fomat?)?

SUPER ELEVATION EDITOR

In SS4, I open up super elevation editor and adjusted some super elevation points. I closed editor (there is no save button) unlock my corridor and reprocess the corridor. I viewed my cross sections and noticed they had not changed. I re-open super elevation editor and noticed none of my edits were saved. The super elevation section is not locked. What may be going on here?

OpenRoads SS4 Linear Template or Corridor?

I am modeling a curb return (pictured below) and was wondering is it better to model it with a linear template or make it a corridor?  What are the advantages/disadvantages of making it a linear template instead of its own corridor?

Which Bentley product for Small Sites?

I have a client who uses MicroStation for site design.  These are primary small sites with buildings and parkings.  The main need is for grading + cut & fill calc.  It appears most of BSI's products are geared for larger road products.  Which one is best suited for grading work on small sites?

Thanks,

Open Roads: What all shows up in dynamic cross sections?

Please help me fill in the blanks here. I'm not seeing in my dynamic cross sections what I'm expecting to see.

I have 2d and 3d models within one file.

In the 3d model I have line work following the flow line of pipes. These flow lines have 3d line styles. In the 3d model they look fine. In the dynamic cross sections, they show up only as single points, where I'm expecting a circle or ellipse.

I'm not seeing anything on the wiki about this. I'd expect to find the answer to this at http://communities.bentley.com/products/road___site_design/w/road_and_site_design__wiki/7045.corridor-modeling-openroads but nothing seems to cover it.

NHello,

I am using Geopak v8i SS2.

I tried to create a chain by using the Geometry->Store Graphics method.  I filled-in the dialogs and when I accepted the line that was selected to create the chain, I got an error that there were no connected elements.  The geometry is a single, straight line.  What am I missing?

GEOPAK-PROFILE

Hello,

I am using Power Geopak v8i SS2.

I created a profile by selecting: Geopak->Road->Geometry->Layout Profiles (VPI Based)->selected profile cell to locate coordinates->selected Tools->Best Fit->Profile->Identify Element->zero'd-out all the settings to avoid vertical curves->select element, accept.  The existing linework I used, has large curves in it.  The resulting profile does not show the large curves but a straight line segment as a chord across the curves.  Is there a way to capture a line to build a profile from, and have the resulting profile match the geometry of the line exactly?

Hello,

I am using Geopak v8i SS2.

I am attempting to display some boreholes in profile.  But I keep getting an Alert that says "cannot find the cell lib..."  I have the cel lib attached and I have cleaned-out the RSC files.  However, the alert also shows an old path to the cel lib, not being used for this current project.  What am I missing that is causing the Alert to occur?

One of the most remarkable differences between INROAD and MXROAD is the parametrization of some elements. Does anybody knows the parametrizations allowed in the MXROAD and the processes (or steps) associated to them?

Does anyone know why I get the following prompt when I use the Sync Surface Template tool?  I am in my mainline corridor dgn and have my ramp corridor referenced.  I then copied horizontal and vertical the lines from the respective corridor and created a tin (gore area).  I applied a surface template but I can't seem to sync the surface template if I were to change something in the surface template.

I try installing MS ss1/ss2/ss3 but still get the same message.

Before I had a Power Inroads install and it work great

I even saw somewhere we need autocad I try the 2012 version...same warning message

Power GeoPAK SS4 templates causing crash

This is happening on Power GEOPAK v8.11.9.714.

When I first start a new corridor modeler file everything works fine, I can open/start a new template library, make and modify templates and adjust constraints. The issue arises after I close the library and try to get back into it or set a point control I get an Unhandled exception error. Not sure what is causing this and have tried everything else and different ways about going about it.


Anyone have some advice or a solution?

Terrain Model from LandXML

Hi

Im trying to import a LANDXML file as a terrain model. I go file import --> terrain model LandXML and it imports perfectly with triangles and contours that i can edit. I can also draw a profile over the terrain and all works as normal.

However the terrain model doesn't appear in the project Explorer menu under Civil Model and subsequently cannot be made active when attached to other drawings.

Is this normal or should i try re import the terrain from the triangles after copying them manually into the drawing file?

[IR Ss2] Preview Pane in Explorer missing certain data

On my Power InRoads Explorer when my Workspace Bar is set to Geometry, when I select the top leaf: Geometry Projects, my Preview Pane shows the Default project and any projects I have loaded.

However, if I select any of those projects in the Workspace Bar, the Preview Pane goes blank. It has no scroll bars, but it does display a single blank column header. This is also true for the COGO Buffer.

Surfaces function properly, as do Templates and Corridors.

I have seen other PC's on our network display correctly.

I am using Geopak V8i (SS4) 08.11.09.845 and in the Superelevation Editor I placed a Mirror Cross Slope constraint on Lane Line 0 but it has no effect in my x-sections. Is there something else I need to apply to change the sign of the Cross Slope for a lane?
Notice the transition diagram above does not change either.

Any insight is greatly appreciated,

how to create a data point?

Hello, i have been following a tutorial on how to import a google earth image but i needed help with the highlighted section (how to give a data point) as shown in the steps below.

4. Then select “Tools > Geographic > Synchronize Google Earth View”, and give a data point in the
view. This would synchronize the google earth with MX.

5.Then select “Tools > Geographic > Capture Google Earth Image”, and select the view, by giving a data point. Change the view display to “Smooth”. The google earth image would get imported to MX.

Thanks 

Amos
