I have the 30 day trial version of CityEngine installed (Esri CityEngine 2011.1 build 1021 (trial, win32-64bit)) but am having trouble even going through the tutorials. Running on a Win 7 64bit laptop environment (Lenovo W520, NVIDIA Q1000). I have installed the recommended C++ 2010 SP1 redistributable (from http://blogs.esri.com/Dev/blogs/3dgis/archive/2011/12/19/Import-a-file-Geodatabase-in-CityEngine.asp...) and rebooted but still get an error when trying to add the Philadelphia results.gdb. I think because there is no preset it won't go any further. have attached the image and logfile entry. i also tried converting the data to shapefile, and while it does accept the data it does so with a similar looking error (logfile attached). Any ideas? [ATTACH=CONFIG]11350[/ATTACH]
just copy-paste the file GDB into the data folder of your project, then drag and drop it into the viewport from there. this triggers the import dialog.
