Lee, I would get the 64 bit version if you can. Michael had the same trouble with vista that you are having but figured it out . He might have some answers.

So far I’ve got Brazil but I’m having a little trouble with the work around for the license. I hate Vista. Its supposed to be compatible with most versions of 3d Max so give it a trySplutterfish Brazil RS v1.2.66 for 3ds Max9 (32bit).rar

heck yes! that would be fun.

Lee, get everything you can and then disperse it.

Quick question for ya’ll. A buddy of mine works at a Hollywood animation studio and said he could get me any kind of rendering software, scripts, plug-ins, etc. for 3ds Max for free. I just need to tell him what I want. Suggestions?

Hi folks,
A sculptor/psychologist friend has formed a non profit that aims to assist mentally and physically wounded veterans reintegrate into society through counciling and education. That’s her empathetic altruistic side at work; her creative artistic side wants to collaborate on the creation of a healing place that incorporates art and…[Read more]

hello, nice to join the group! I’m doing a research about the synergic perception of landscape and I have some problems finding resources about the psychological effects of plant perfumes, and in general about the olfactive perception. Can anybody help me? Greetings, Catinca

good stuff kavan

sounds interesting

Hello Everyone! I’m going to the Birmingham Botanical Gardens for a conference on Horticultural Therapy in April and it will be the first hort. therapy conference that I’ve ever been to. I was wondering if anyone in Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee…knows of any other seminars or meetings that are going on in our area and what other organizations or…[Read more]

Ok, I will start a group, because there are a bunch of software/plugins that I use and I want to see if others in landscape use them at all.

But, in terms of the conversation. BIM software will be the used in every office in the future. It will be as ubiquitous as autocad is now. This will happen because clients will demand it. The GSA is already…[Read more]

Oona,
LEED has been growing extremely fast these couple of years, at least in California and the bay area. Clients, public and private, are becoming much more aware of LEED and are requesting that we follow the requirements whether they are or are not applying for accreditation on a project. About half of our office of 50 is now LEED certified.…[Read more]

Sketchup doesn’t have the accuracy. It is clumsy in comparison. I have never drawn a vector in 3ds 300,000′ on accident like I have in sketchup. One of the reasons you dont see process drawings in 3ds is that you would have to render them and due to the fact that 3ds is such a fluid process it doesn’t make much sense to do that. The idea that…[Read more]

Rfox,
maybe we could start up a forum called “new and exciting software” or something along those lines? do you have any ideas?.. I think as 3ds group we should try to grow this dialog on cutting edge design software, i think its pretty valueble to us and the profession.

i agree. i think i do pretty well at envisioning a space in my mind when designing, but this is always imperfect. I think it is extremely helpful to throw initial design ideas into 3ds to get a clear idea of what is working, viewsheds, scale ect… then pull back and design more. I think people should take advantage of the flexibility of using the…[Read more]

I’ve used 3ds max in the design development phase a good bit. For me its much easier and quicker to take a CAD site map into 3d max and pop up buildings, basic trees, etc. Doesn’t look pretty but it gives you a better feel for your site and its alot more accurate and faster than sketchup.

can we get some examples up RFox? Maybe pictures and links? Thank for the comment. Would love to see some one who is using it consistently.
