revit and rhino, end of story

who doesn't need a little R&R?

microsoft office

but yes, i will second revit and rhino.

REVIT. I just started using it in my firm, and I have no idea how people still don't use it...

I have to recommend Autodesk Ecotect
which is a great design aid as well. Ecotect is great for analyzing your building perfomance.

Daylighting, thermal, PMV,Air Flow (CFD)

when did autodesk buy ecotect? man they are like the plague...cool software though

Revit and Rhino..thought i don't know revit.

Is revit easy to learn?
Also, anyone using T-splines plugin for rhino?'


Also how about Digital project?

revit is easy to learn - approx 1000x easier than DP. but also about 1000x less cool than DP
t-splines is cool, turns rhino into maya, but the plug-in costs more than rhino...sure you can download the trial over and over, but that got old for me fast

i also want learn revit but am still cool with 3D max

Generative Components seems to be gaining fans.

it all depends on what you are doing and who you are working with

know it all, is my advise

i think the most important computer skill is not being able to use any one particular program, but in being able to switch from one to the next easily. because sure as eggs, which ever one you study at school won't be the one the practice you work in uses.

and don't not have a flavor of InteliCAD loaded. Linux would be ideal, Bricscad for Linux the only 1 and what would you want "(bIm)ntelligence" to look like in the free-world?

"because sure as eggs, which ever one you study at school won't be the one the practice you work in uses."

Ha! same goes for engineering software!

MArch n' unemployed,

Where did you graduate?

Question: Can the combination of tsplines/rhino/revit do what DP can do?

Learn to make pretty renderings and you'll have a job and be able to design/sell your designs. This could be SU with VRay, Revit with Max, etc.

Ive def noticed the majority of firms asking for experience with either Revit or Rhino. I already am familiar and pretty good w/ Rhino of use and I was wondering if anyone can break down the differences (in terms of ease, final products, strengths) between Revit and Rhino while were on that topic here. Thanks

I second MS Office, and would like to add to the mix PhotoShop and iTunes. I couldn't survive a day without those three.

xbox is very good deal during free time we have after most of us lost his job :D

Ha! Yes, make sure to study the advanced functions of Itunes. Make sure to really understand podcasts.

OpenOffice, just because it is important to always have a alternative to any monopolies tools.
Just like it is Important to know Gimp also.

and if you say iTunes, i will say Pre-AOL winamp w/ m4a plugin and shoutcast

A pdf printer. Adobe and/or PdfCreator

nappy: berkeley

the knock on revit is, while it's a great documentation tool, it's not the best design tool. DP is both. and while i love rhino and with things like grasshopper you could approach what DP can do, but imo it's better to have that all in one platform. having to go from rhino to revit is not fun.

i learned DP from someone from gehry technologies, i'm not sure you could teach yourself - it's that complicated

slightly OT but how much does DP cost per license... $20k/$50k...?

a student license, for one year is $200

MArch n' unemployed from brekeley and u cant find job :O !!!!!

thanks, but how about a non-student license?

don't know cowgill, check the link above, there is a form to fill out but no pricing info. you could just email and ask.

i will also say that if you want to play around with DP, but don't want to fork over the money i would suggest trying catia, it can be downloaded easily for free if you catch my drift. it'll be more program than you need, but everything you do need is there.

yup, no job - a few interviews, but everyone has said not until jan 1....i've got the moody blues

I am with you I like DP the best but am afraid that in my field of landscape architecture I am somewhat limited in terms of firms and usage. I put the worldwide total at zero.

why u dont move to gulf March n`unemployed its easy to u to go somewhere like dubai or somethin and for good salary

why? marriage. if i were young-er and single, perhaps....

I recently received a copy of DP as reimbursement for some TA work i've been doing. Even the installer is difficult... it took me 2 tries to get it installed and it still doesn't load properly. GAH!

better hurry up then, as Dubai is said to have peaked or be peaking soon, it's all down hill from (t)here.

personally i would like to see less exploitation, slavery and denial of human rights before i would consider it.

Gehry.Technologies.Digital.Project.V1R3.SP4.3-SHooTERS ?

'Zilla did you try getting in contact with GT? they actually have a really good support system, at least they did when i was using it (2yrs ago).

also, here is another good DP resource:

MArch


Sometime in July of this year...I am all about ecotect right now. And I am hoping that Autodesk helps bring ecotect to another level. Ecotect is great software and hopefully with autodesk now behind it -it can be even better

i agree, i really like it as well...i hadn't used it since may, as much as i hate autodesk a little money behind it will hopefully just add to an already really useful and fun software

i use the conversion tool everyday, i love that
