Thank you so much! It finally works.

For what it's worth, the Inventor format listed is the 2016 version of Inventor, which isn't backwards compatible with 2015. 2015 is what we have on our school computers.

The STEP import is working fine for me, and even comes through with proper color. So I'll work to upload the 2015 Inventor version of the field to my GrabCAD tonight, then publish it so it's available at our team CAD library link in my signature.

Edit - turns out the upload was pretty quick - Direct Link

These appear to be Inventor 2016 files, my team chose not to upgrade this year - can you save as 2015?

You have to use the STEP version, because Inventor 2016 doesn't have the option to export Inventor 2015-compatible files.

I opened the STEP file in SW 2015-16 Student Edition. Some minor face and gap errors, but I think all the critical parts are OK. I put the SW files on GrabCAD. I renamed the game specific assemblies from their drawing numbers to their names in the Game Manual so that they are easier to identify in the feature manager. I also created a new assembly of the tower and batter.

Phil, mucho mahalo for the STEP file!

Hi Phil
Is there a DWF version of the 2016TeamVersion of the Defence Drawings.
vs PDF only versions?

Thanks
Andy

Hi Phil

Also.. the drawings GE 16185-16188 showing details of the HDPE plastic on the batter around the Tower are missing from the set of field drawings.
We were hoping to have a team version of the tower for practice with the Polyethylene surface for realism.

Andy,

Unfortunately no on both. I do not have any access to the drawings, They are created by FIRST or a vendor. I will email my contact at FIRST and see if they can track down the missing drawing.

The STEP file imported fine into SolidWorks 2014. Thanks Phil!

Here is the link to Dassault System's FRC downloads, with the field converted to SolidWorks parts, if you'd like.

Any update on the KOP CAD? I can only find the one on the SolidWorks website. (I'm looking for Inventor, 2016 is ok)

[inventor_phild]

Yes, I posted it on January 9. Check this thread.

It is also posted on the Autodesk Education First site.

Let me know if this works for you.

For those of you using SolidWorks, the download on the SolidWorks website is a very clean import. The parts are floating, however, and being an import the colors are missing. I have downloaded and 'fixed' all the parts in space, as well as added colors to most of the parts. In addition I have added some advanced mates to allow the 'outer works' to actually move as they would in the game. You can find this file on grabcad in the comments section. I'm in contact with SolidWorks right now, and am working to get the updated version posted on there as well.
