Hi, Henry. Thanks for joining.
Not too much discussion going on in this group yet, although I posted a review of the book I used to learn Revit.

Just thought I’d introduce myself, you’ve probably seen me around. I’m a KTP Associate with Teesside University and Colour Urban Design Ltd. My role is to enhance the BIM workflow at Colour filling in gaps of provision as necessary, but also to add to the knowledge base for BIM and landscape architecture. I have been described as ‘the Landscape…[Read more]

Does anyone know where I can find HQ real world plant images that include vegetables?  Anyone know a free site for downloading plant images without the background?

Hey all you SketchUp users out there! There’s a hands-on all-day workshop on Modeling Residential Sites with Slope in Google SketchUp (for intermediate/advanced users) coming to San Francisco Feb. 20th, 2010
Includes rubyscripts and tips for smoothly integrating your CAD files.

I’ve used Auto Cad for 7years and I have to move on Vector Works for a new Company. It’s so confusing and not so much information so far.. Tutorials don’t really give me right answers and I have many problems to figure out, but it’s difficult ask somebody.. Not so many people are using this..

Land F/X is a great tool if you are going to do a concept to working drawings set and are looking for real world ability to create and modify a great set of plans, it is functional within Autocad and now BricsCad ( a cheeper version of ACAD, which looks very powerful for the price), and LandF/X functions with SketchUp (which is not a TOY as stated…[Read more]

Whilst I am glad you all find the discussion useful – let’s avoid blank statements and overlooking the progress some applications had achieved. Every release of each application brings many new and sometimes very good features. Some of these upgrades make a huge difference and change the appeal of the software.
So for 2D – AutoCAD LT is g…[Read more]

I’ve been using Rhino and just a word of caution, it is primarily an industrial design 3D modeling program and I’ve found that it does not work well for large scale applications. It exceeds in designing small elements, which can then be exported into other programs that work better with land manipulation.

I think this conversation is great…[Read more]

After using AutoCAD for about 12 years of drafting, and then switching over to Vectorworks Landmark, I would say without hesitation that the advantages of working in Vectorworks over AutoCAD are immense. The only reason why I had been using the “industry standard” is because I didn’t seek anything better. Many take their work out of AutoCAD to do…[Read more]

Has anyone looked at Viz Terra?
