Getting Wind Load error in RAM Structural Frame: "Some of the Wind Loads for Load Case (every single one of them) may have been missed on diaphragm." How to fix this? Also can't find the support contact information?

Question

Having some problems with RAM Structural Frame: "Some of the Wind Loads for Load Case (every single one of them) may have been missed on diaphragm." How is this solved? If this is a quick fix, please let me know. How do I get the wind loads to generate properly onto the structure if the structure is Semi-rigid diaphragm?

We've seen a few cases of this and usually the amount of load missing is very small and hence can be ignored. To confirm how much load might be missing check the total applied load in the loads and applied forces report versus the total base shear (in a non P-Delta analysis). I also like to use Process - Results - Applied Story Forces to see the applied loads in case any portion is visibly missing along the meshed edges in a semi-rigid wind load analysis.
