i’d like to help out.

count me in as well…

like the idea, from the forum discussion earlier….i’m in, and i’m from the area so i could definitely help out and should have some free time…

Hey Brandon – great idea on your website – the three different design packages – really easy to read and understandable for the client can see at a glance exactly what you have to offer. I love the way the graphics reflect each level. You would think it would be a no-brainer, but I haven’t seen this idea in landscape architecture yet – other…[Read more]

Land8 Design Competition??

Anyone?

FYI. I did purchase CAD Lite and so far it is doing everything I need. I have been able to insert a jpg, use Civil 3D files and open documents that I receive from survey and engineering firms. I am working as an independent designer. I did not learn the 3D function on CAD and use Sketch Up if I need a model. I’m sure this is not as efficient, but…[Read more]

Hi Andrew,

I couldn’t tell you all the problems we have been having, mainly because there is a higher up in our office who is very well-versed in CAD and he seems to be the one running into problems periodically. He knows much more than myself, so he is usually the one who troubleshoots these issues then feeds me the info.

I do know that one of…[Read more]

Tyler,

What specific issues have you experienced with LT?

I’ve used Intellicad and found so many issues that I decided to go with LT. I really wanted the Intellicad (downloaded at least three different brands including Bricsnet & Progecad. Problems with layer controls in multi-layer blocks comes to mind. If I recall, most of the issues that I…[Read more]

I would agree with David. If you want to save money, go for Briscad. Most importantly for its LandFx capabilities [if that is something you will be interested in using].

I have recently joined a firm that has all AutoCAD LT licenses. We have been experiencing numerous issues with this platform. Many of the key functions you may be used to are not…[Read more]

You can go to and from civil 3d and LT and back. I use Civil 3d in the engineering office and LT 2008 in my home office. You don’t have certain commands and no add on programs, but the drawing file is the same. You won’t lose anything and nothing gets flattened or anything. The only question is whether you need functions that LT does not provide…[Read more]

I was under the impression that you are not able to handle files done in Civil 3D with AutoCAD LT. If you intend to work with engineering firms, you may have trouble working with their files, or getting them to save it in a file format you can use and then, in turn, them being able to use it when they need to print it our with their plan set.
I’ve…[Read more]

I would like to go ahead and confirm Landon’s findings. Viva Las Vegas!

If I remember correctly LT does not allow you to import .jpg files to use for building base maps and what not from plat of surveys. This may have been changed in the last few years. I believe the 2008 LT that I used in an office did not have this function. I hope they added it now for all of you using LT.
