Reverse engineering with Visio 2013 on a SQL Server 2012 DB

Hello, 

Am I correct in my opinion that the reverse engineering functionality is dropped in Visio 2013? Please tell me I'm wrong and how I should do it...

When using Visio 2010 to reverse enigineer a SQL Server 2012 db, I discovered that certain data types were not shown right in my data model. The data type 'time(0)' was translated to 'image' when using the odbc generic driver and it was translated to 'text' when using the generic oledb driver. Choosing the SQL Server driver returned an error telling that the driver is not compatible with Visio. 

So I was pleased with the release of Visio 2013 because it came later than SQL Server 2012 and I thought they should be compatible now. Is this correct and how should I perform reverse engineer?
