You should really post this in the Autosprink forum at the autosprink
website.
However, there is a fairly easy fix that I had to do myself. Purchase
the annual lease of REVIT. It's relatively inexpensive. Download the
MRV add-in for REVIT 2016. Make your own exports from the original RVT
file. Then, bring it in to AutoSprink in the MRV format.
That way, you aren't at the mercy of the others to create your MRV or
DWG files.

Yes. Someone was kind enough to reach out already (thank you Greg)
I believe MEP CAD just recommended that I ask the project engineer to
install an add-on program and run it overnight every time he needs to
send me digital files. We’re sub-contractors. There is no way a
mechanical engineer is going to do this each time we need a new file.
It’s my understanding that AutoSprink is choking on a DWG file that in
all honesty, isn’t that large of an area.

Are there any users of AutoSprink that have really mastered it’s
use? We’re about 30 days in and still having some issues that we
can’t seem to get past with MEPCAD support. Mostly pertaining to
importing files and how to approach a new project. If anyone feels
like they have this thing mastered and wouldn’t mind spending 10
minutes on the phone with my designer I would appreciate it.
