Version(s): 24.00.01.XX (of MicroStation)

 

Problem

When using an OpenFlows product integrated with MicroStation 2024 (specifically update 1, 24.00.01.XX), a crash occurs when trying to load a new or existing hydraulic model- "MicroStation has stopped working"

Solution

This is currently a known issue due to a change that was made in MicroStation 2024, causing in incompatibility. Here are the options:

Option 1: downgrade your MicroStation version (for example the base 2024 release, 24.00.00.XX)

Option 2: wait for MicroStation 2024 Update 2, which is planned to be available by early 2025.

Option 3: use the Standalone version, which has the ability to work with CAD files, and could be an alternative to using MicroStation integration. See: CAD Functionality in Standalone as an Alternative to AutoCAD or MicroStation Integration
