Microsoft .NET 3.5 framework

This new version of PCSWMM.NET (version 2.15 and/or newer) requires an upgrade to the Microsoft .NET 3.5 framework. You may already have .NET 3.5 installed (many applications require it). If not you can download it from the link below:

Notes:

You do not need to uninstall previous versions of PCSWMM.NET to install an update, however it doesn't cause a problem if you do. Some updates may prompt you to update the structure of SWMM5 layers, please backup your existing PCSWMM.NET model files. If the layout of the panels or toolbar is not desirable, choose View > Layout > Default to re-initialize the panel layout.

Update History

Version 2.15.396  (October 31^st, 2008)

 General

• New features
• Bug fix

   Detail

• Add function to roll back edits to the current project to the start of the session or last auto-saved version (Edit  >> Undo).
• Add packaging function (File >> Package Project…) to package the current project into a single compressed PCSWMM package file (*.pcz) for ease of transferring projects (e.g. emailing).
