When I open a model made in 2012 on older laptop on new laptop in X12 or X13 the artwork in picture frames or on a tv etc does not come through and it shows blank.

 

Is there a way to make that artwork all transfer with the plan? I notice Cultured stone the manufacturer changed stuff up and they dont transfer either  but thats a manufacturer / new owner change I believe. Thanks for any insight

Do a  File>Backup Entire Plan  (Project if in Layout) with the ALL referenced Files zipped options and the Plan will be saved with all associated textures, If doing this from Layout any referenced Plans are included so you don't need to also do an Entire backup of them.

If you save all the Associated Textures ( stone, Art etc )  from the Old Plans once unZipped in to the Chief Textures Folder , you will always have them,

as Chief Migrates the Textures Folder each version.

 

You might be able to find just the needed Textures on the Old laptop to put in the Textures Folder, but it is just easier to do a File>Backup Entire Plan.

 

C:\Documents\Chief Architect Premier X13 Data\Textures
