Question

AFX vs Student Edition

I'm teaching myself Creo with version 6.0 student edition.

In trying to work on the framework utility, the system reports that the library parts ( standard beams and the such) were created in a commercial version of Creo and therefore, they are not compatible with the student version.

Is there a way to get around this limitation with a compatible library or even with home-made components that will effectively be compatible with the student version?

Thanks in advance.

Hi @MilongueroViejo 

we've recently added support for student version. Please make sure to use Creo 6.0.5.0 with AFX 6.0.5.0.

Hope that helps.

    Hello there and thanks for the prompt reply.

    I have the right version of Creo ( 6.0.5.0) but the AFX version is 6.0.2.0 Lite.

    Is there a way to update the AFX only?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi @MilongueroViejo 

     

    you should have the 6.0.5.0 version in the following folder: 

     

    PTC/Creo 6.0.5.0/Common Files/afx

     

    How do you start AFX? Usually if you use the embedded version of Creo then you always have the latest build.
