Missing creo standard library

Creo 8.0

Hello!

I am student using Creo for my CAD course.

I am at the end of the project and I have to use the ISO M"x" screws, which schould be in the creo Standard library (the course says it) to "screw" some parts together.

However the library don't appear, I thought it was because of the config.pro file but I'm not sure and, anyways, have no idea of how to correct it.

Here are some screenshots,

Thank you for your help, I wish you a beautiful day.

Wlivier,

Are you looking to add a threaded hole to your parts?

Are you looking to add fasteners to the assembly?

Unless you have specific extensions, you probably do not have a catalog of threaded fasteners to add to your part. There are tables for making threaded holes in your parts if that is what you are asking..

Else simple models can be created to make your fasteners.

This used to be available in the PTC Support -> Downloads, under one of the versions of ProE Wildfire. When I look there now, the old versions prior to Creo 1.0 are not available. I do not see the library files listed there anymore.

They were also available for download on www.3dmodelspace.com, but I can't access that link either.

If your student license allows it, you can use the Intelligent Fastener extension (IFX) on the Tools tab.

at first glance on your config.pro screenshot, i'm afraid line 11 will fail with the space characters.
Did you try and replace the path to Creo common files folder :

C:\Program Files\PTC\Creo 8.0.4.0\Common Files

by $CREO_COMMON_FILES?

I Finally found the correct config.file and the library, thank you all for your help!
