There isn't anything wrong with the *.b17 and once you have got a
*.b17 the *.idf is no longer relevant (unless you need to make
geometry changes or want to use the sketchup result viewer. My guess
would be that the Studio project file (*.tpf) is corrupted. Try
creating a new (empty) Studio project then drag out Type56 (Loads
and Structures: Multi-Zone Building: Type56), then open the External
Files tab and point it toward your *.b17 file. If you want to be
nice to TRNSYS, type the entire path to the *.b17 file.<br>
Best,<br>

<div dir="ltr">I created a new TRNSYS project with a 3d multizone
building and the simulation runs with no issues. I then modified
the building in TRNBuild and saved it under a different name.
When I change to the new building (*.b17 file) in Simulation
Studio by altering the path in the "External Files" section of
the Building Type, Simulation Studio crashes. <br>
<br>
The error message reads "A problem caused the program to stop
working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you
if a solution is available."<br>
<br>
The strange thing is that this happens even if I select the same
*.b17 file that was being used originally i.e. going into
"External Files" and selecting the same file that is already
loaded and working properly.<br>
<br>
I am just wondering if anyone else has had a similar problem, or
knows where I should start troubleshooting.<br>
<br>
I have tested with one of the example building projects and
there is no problem there which would lead me to believe that
there is some problem either with the *.idf file or the *.b17
file. However, this doesn't seem to be the case as the
simulations run without a problem. I have attached both of these
files.<br>
