We have integrated the satellite photos (file 3SM) and made it as a backgound map into our 3D Open Road model.
In some areas of the 3D model, the background map masks the corridors and the 3D model of the project
(see attached screen capture).
Is there a way to have the project averlay the background map and make it always shown ?
Thanks.
how could we design the drainage network for highway with step by step .If any link or vedio blog can u share with me.
Dear Benley ORD advisor,
Something happened weird! Everything is working well two minutes ago, Just of a sudden, the sections disappeared in section view and the whole attached files show the X,Y,Z with strange text. (please see the snapshot below). I typed the commend of Geometry Dynamicsection Deletesveiw to get the sections back. But the attached files still don't show up.
I would more appreciate it if someone can help us solve this issue.
Best Regards,
Kenny
Hello all,
My first problem is that Geopak is crashing whenever I try to set up a new .prj file in the Project Manager (it throws up the error in the screenshot below). And my subsequent problem which is related to this is that I am unable to find the exception.log file that an error message references.
For some context: I am trying to use Power GEOPAK v8i (SS10) v.08.11.09.918 for the first time, and I'm trying to go to the Geopak menu, select the project category I'm in, then select "Project Manager" and then in the Project Manager select "projects" at the top and select to cre
ate a new project, and once that input window comes up, as I select my project name, working directory, and job number, it fails with the following message:
But when I navigate to the specified folder it claims the log will be in, there is no exception.log file in that folder, so I am not even able to begin troubleshooting this issue by reading the log. I do have my Windows File Explorer settings set so that I can view all hidden folders, etc.
My OS: Windows 10 home. Basic hardware: intel i7 2.60 GHz cpu, 16 gb ram, nvidia RTX 2070.
My network: I am connecting directly to a prime's projectiwise datasource and getting the files from there without any VPN or file server.
I am not using any 3rd party apps or macros.
The problem appears to happen with all files that I try to set this setting on.
Thank you!
I'm using Geopak Drainage on MicroStation SS4. I noticed that the values reported for "Total Loss at Upstream of Link" do not appear to be using the loss equations listed in the Help Documents for Geopak. Is this a known issue?
I've calculated the Terminal Loss manually [(K*V^2)/2g] using every velocity I can generate from Geopak Drainage (Actual Upstream, Actual Downstream, Iterative, Critical, Full, Uniform) and NONE of them match the loss value generated by Geopak. My preferences are set to use the actual velocity for loss calculations. The "Defined Equations" use K=1.0 for terminal inlets, so it should just boil down to V^2/64.4, but as you can see from the screenshots this is not the loss that is being calculated (I get the same results when supplying a K of 1.0). Any ideas? Or is this an unresolved issue with Geopak?
Example: The "Actual Upstream" velocity in the screenshot, V = 2.681. Loss = (K*V^2)/2g = (1*2.681^2) / 64.4 = 0.112. The Loss in the Link Configuration Computations window = 0.161.

JeremieDL Yon can change the transparency of the realitymesh, you can clip it or mask it (make Hole in it) But if you want display order you need to work in 2D, in 3D elements are displayed where they are created.

Recently MicroStation Connect released update 15 which runs on the 10.15.00.019 power platform... This caused us to have to update our mdl application due to changes in the API.
The latest release of OpenRoadsDesigner (2020 Update 3) is still running on on the 10.14.04.004 power platform.. This is causing problems with our mdl application.
Any news on when the power platform will be updated in OpenRoadsDesigner?
Thanks!

Hi
what would be the best way to create a corridor with 3 types of slopes.
Nr 1 road start with -25 0/00 from CL to each EOP, then goes to 25 0/00 left side slope and then over to 25 0/00 right side slope
Nr 2 road start with a 25 0/00 left side slope , then goes to -25 0/00 slope from CL to each EOP, and then to 25 0/00 right side slope .
I am using OpenRoads Designer.
regards

Is it possible to import a CSV file with point name, northing, easting, elevation, code, description. I am looking to have the description in a separate column from the field code.
I have a couple of hundred small structures to generate drainage areas for. I have National Map lidar, and I can create terrains from those point clouds.
I do not know how to analyze those terrains to automatically delineate the watersheds. It was fairly simple in Geopak. Matter of fact, I had been generating my terrains, exporting them to TINs and opening them in Geopak to delineate the drainage. I thought it might make more sense to cut out those extra steps - but I can't figure out how to process any kind of drainage delineation or ridge lines for a terrain. I thought it might be in Drainage, but that looks like something I use after I already know that information.
Am I overlooking something, or is it not available?
Thank you.
how can I place proposed spot elevation points w PowerGEOpak? I was an autocad 3D user for many years and my GEOpak abilities are a bit rusty.
I'm using Power Geopak V8i SS10.
I am designing a full road reconstruction, I have horizontal and vertical geometry complete with a corridor attached and completed. When attempting to run the create cross sections command at 25' intervals, the program runs cross sections only if I select Stacked but if I select sheet it takes me to temp cross section view immediately with no cross sections created.
Let me know if I need to include more information to help.
Thank you!
The latest release of ORD (10.09.01.07) has some enhancements to the Import Geometry command. Namely the 'Assign Feature Definitions from Table option'. It appears the table should be in an excel spreadsheet but I can't find how the spreadsheet should be setup. Is there any information on how to use this?
hello
I have updated my openroads designer to version 10.09.00.91. However anytime i try to open the dgn files on the student server, the software keeps crashing.The files in particular are those in the 2020 data set. i doubt the fault is from my laptop as i am using a new laptop with 16gig ram and nvida graphics card.
Interesting some files open without any fault but majority dont.
Any help? are the files on the server corrupt or do i have to twig some settings. Its becoming frustrating as i am unable to follow the tutorials with the files.
thanks
Hi,
How can I annotate in cross sections slopes through only features 3D lines.
Happy new year
Whenever i apply isolated footing for my structure of G+6. Staad foundation gets hanged and stops working... Not onpy on my pc i tried it on the higher version laptops but still the problem is same...
There are different excavation depths and different excavation slopes on the basis of the building, whose photographs I have attached.
I prepared this excavation plan with Civil3D. How can I make such an excavation plan with openroads?
I have to work with ORD 2020 version and frankly I am an entry level user.
Where should I start and how should I proceed.
How can I make a straight line break where the surface breaks by following the surface?
Screen shot is from Civil3D;
Looking from above, the green circles above the red line indicate where the line breaks along the surface.
When you look from perspective, you can see that the line follows the surface.
What you see in 3D is actually a straight line from above.
How can I do this with Openroads designer 2020?
Hi,
I'm using ORD 2020 Release 3 Update 9, Version 10.09.00.91.
I don't see the cross section elements (the 3D components), I looked for solution here, but with no success.
Is there anything else I can look for?
