[Equest-users] Errors happened when modeling Skyscrapers in eQuest

[Jimmy Ching Hin LAW]

Dear all,
 
I got 20000+ errors when modeling an 71-levels office building and they 
were almost the same as "... has maximum number of expressions dependency lists 
..." . I think it might exceed the maximum size of building that eQuest can 
calculate. Is there any solution to fix it?
 
Actrually I found there was a email which mentioned some sort of problem as 
mine before and gave a solution by Mr. Scott Criswell as below, but I still have 
problem to fix it.

1. As shown in the email, 
"I added the following line immediately before the trailing '..' of
the 
Project component definition in the project's PD2 file:
   DetailedModelEdits 
= 1
   ProjTreeType = ( 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1 )
   ProjTreeID = ( 10240000, 
10081500, 10280021, 10640002, 10480018, 
                  10280020 )
   
ProjTreeLabel = ( "...", "...", "...", "...", "...", "..." )
   MaxExpDeps = 
10
   ..
   "
where should this code be put? I have tried somewhere for a few time but 
eQuest couldn't run this file and made some error.
 
2 I do not quite understand the words "blasted all "C-" keyword default 
expressions" in eQ Data>\DOE-2\BDLDft.dat (modified version
attached) . 
Does it mean to delete them? Which exact default expressions should be fixed 
like that?
 
Thank you. That will be great if there is any other solution to fix the 
error.
 
Regards,Jimmy
