Has anybody experienced corruption after creating some new custom topworks? I created some 3d solids to use as custom topworks, and as soon as I try to use one in the model, there is an error. After than all parts start failing to bring in their end type. It seems to corrupt the model and I don't have a clue what I might have done wrong with the actuator. Any advice on what to look out for is appreciated. I just copied a different datatable and changed the dwg files it points to. That has worked for me in the past just fine.

Hey, long time no chat.
Are your blocks clean of any CADWorx blocks? When you create blocks to be used inside of CADWorx you must purge out any CPM, CFM, CEM... blocks that could reside in there. It's best to create/edit the blocks in vanilla AutoCAD so CADWorx doesn't add its own blocks to the files.

If they are in the drawing, make sure you are not in any CADWorx products, then you will need to run BEDIT on the block and add some graphics to the block, I typically use the RAY command so its easy to identify in the drawing area. Once you exit the block editor, simply erase any instances found and purge.

I've never heard of that type of corruption, but making sure there are no C*M blocks found is very important.
