This one was a small struggle of trial and error, install, delete, and
re-install but The RISE ProE 18 release does work. I have not tried
all option codes yet, but the 7 or 8 I have tried seem to work fine.
This is what you need to do.
HARDWARE:
My machine is not running on a network, but apparently the software
needs to see an ethernet card installed in your machine.
You must setup and activate drivers for Client for Microsoft Networks
You must setup and activate both TCP/IP and NetBIOS network protocols.
For TCP/IP you must have a fixed IP address established. I chose
IP Address: 1.2.3.10
Subnet Mask: 255.0.0.0
Gateway: 1.2.3.1
Choose IPX/SPX-compatible protocol for NetBIOS and make sure you check
the box that causes IPX\SPX to use it as default.
Check Network Bindings and make sure both protocols are active.
Also make sure the drivers have the Enhanced mode boxes checked.
You will also need to setup a computer name and workgroup name in
Network identification.
If you are installing a network card just for this "stand alone"
purpose make sure that all drivers specific to your card are loaded
and there are no address conflicts with other cards. Check Control
Panel - System-Hardware Devices
Your display needs to be running with at least 1024 X 768 X 256
resolution or ProE will not run.
SOFTWARE:
Unzip/Unrar all files to a temporary directory on your hardrive.
Run install.com patches the prosetup.exe in the ptc_install/i48695
directory. The prosetup.exe there has already been patched on
another machine, so make a new copy from the original Kopie van
PROSETUP.EXE there.
Run the setup.exe to install the ProE directory structure and files.
The executable code for all options is installed automatically.
When the installation program asks for you to type a start command, do
not choose START. I chose " Proe" after several trials and errors.
But you can choose anything except start. The batch file that will be
created for program execution references start as a Proe command and
environment varaible. Naming your execution file START will put this
batch file in a loop and the program will not run.
When the installation asks for number of unique serial numbers choose
1.
Enter the serial number, revision code, and autorization code etc. as
stated in the codes text.
The authorization code is entered in the left most box.
The WLO code should be entered in the option codes box on the right
along with whatever other options you want installed. Note some
options are incompatible with others and will cause ProE to sputter if
both are authorized. I suggest only a few to begin. You can always
add others. ProDRAW is incompatible with most other options, so avoid
it.
ASSEMBLY, MESH, DETAIL, NOTEBOOK, PERSPA-SKETCH, TOOLKIT, and
DESIGNER were tested fine.
ProE will not install itself over an existing installation or to any
directory that already exists.
Do not load the DEMO files as some appear to be missing and the
install will die when it can't find them.
After the initial install, you will need to run Proe18.com to patch
some files with the cracks. Put Proe.com into the root directory of
the installation. Make sure your path points to this directory. Edit
your autoexec.bat and reboot if necessary.
Run proe18.com and it will respond with some errors that it can't find
or can't open certain files.
The files that it is looking to modify are all read only, so make note
of file names and paths (They exist in several different directories.)
and change the attribute of these files to archive.
Run Proe18.com again and it should patch the files. It does not hurt
to run the patch over the files more than once until you get them all.
When it is successful it will say
"Patterns matched" and look for the next file to patch. When the
entire patch is successful it will say "Crack Successful". If you try
to patch over an already patched file it will say :Patterns not
matched" but will not hurt anything. When you see the "Crack
successful" you should get happy.
At this point find the ptcutil.bat file and execute it. This will set
the license and you may need to re-enter new option codes or other
codes at this time. ProE will not run if you do not do this. Make
sure the drive/directory and processor type are correct. Choose edit
if you need to enter or want to check option codes.
If you chose Proe as your start command this action will create a
batch file called Proe.bat in the <install>/bin directory.
You can now try to execute this but you will not be successful. More
than likely you will get an "Out of Environment Space" error. Open
and edit Properties-Memory for this batch file and change Auto to
4096 in the right most side of the dialog box.
This batch file calls several others in the same directory during
execution, so change every batch file in the <install>/bin directory
the same way to 4096.
All environment space errors are related to this problem and nothing
else.
Now you are ready to run. ProE is executed from the <install>/bin
directory, click on ProE.bat and get happy.
If you get a blue window that gives some network error messages, your
problem is with your network card or configuration.
I will answer intelligent questions posted here provided it appears
the questioner has made an effort to make it work on their own.
I apologize for any errors in this instruction and will correct them
if necessary. Both efforts have made me tired. I can guarantee
success, if you can follow the instructions. Complainers will be
ignored.
==========================================
As an addendum to previous install instructions.
Information on PTC's website has info that the WinFAT version of Win95
is necessary for install/execution of ProE.
I have OSr2 and FAT32 so I cannot test the truth of this.
Also, a three button mouse is required if you want it to work right.
Corrections/additions will probably keep coming.
It ain't easy to get this thing to run.
