I need to do some modeling on an old model, but I need to reinstall this version of pondpack. Can I still get the executable files to reinstall this version of PondPack?
To add to Larry's reply - generally speaking the Bentley OpenFlows products (including PondPack) are backward compatible. Meaning, you can expect to open older models created in earlier versions and they will be upgraded to the newer version's file format. See more here: Model backward / forward compatibility

Jim,
I was able to successfully open and convert the models you provided and compute the converted models using the latest PondPack version 10.02.01.04 by simply opening the models using the latest version. No errors were encountered. One model's Catchments did not point to your Local Storm Data although you told it to use Local Storm Data (value was set to True) but that's correctible with a simple edit.
I believe you could update PondPack and continue modifying and running your models without encountering any interruptions.
Thank-you,Larry
Hi James, did you see Yashodhan's answer? We're wondering why you need to use the older version, as the latest version can open older models from V8i. Also, V8i is no longer supported. We can look into providing the installation file if absolutely necessary but we'd like more information first so we can make sure that alternative avenues are not viable.
