this looks really killer...and plugs into rhino apparently. If the website is any indication, seems closer to alpha than beta testing. If you find a beta copy, let me know

saw him lecture...it is very beta...i don't think that the program is available for distribution yet. basically its a VBA scripting program that links into a CAD engine....He obviously was very influential in developing Foster's in-house scripting programs as this is very similar to the ones he is currently deploying.

I have be using it for the last month trying to solve a few problems.
it is still beta but works well and the author is very helpful have had 2 skype conversation with him regarding what i was trying to do.

it hasn't been able to do exactly what i want but its not as unfriendly as the Microstation software in my view. well worth the money

do you know if you can use a spreadsheet program other than Excel 2003??

it needs excel 2007.

so this is the software package per has been working on!

these guys are really pumping the cloud:

is there any other alternate to paracloud for rhino? a nother parametric plug in?

Do some of you Architects use Microstation? I always thought it was almost exclusively used by civil engineers.

projects for teh federal government require microstation.

wow, I knew it was required for many federal and state highway jobs but didn't realize it extended to building projects as well. Sweet deal for Bentley.

is GC just aplug in for microstation?

Synergy,

My firm (nationwide firm, 800 + employees) uses Microstation.

for n___ and her 799+ coworkers! hi n___!!!

the FED requires a BIM model it doesn't have to be Bentley

Hello, Mr. Retro!

Anyone have a student copy of Paracloud? is it worth spending the $170? what limitations does it have compared to the camercial lisence?

thanks

I have it and it is worth it. It is the same as the commercial version...you do have to email proof of attendance.

i would buy it if it worked with Open Office

i have seen some great work done with this and other plugins for rhino
