is it just me or does there seem like there should be more improvements?
sweep blend and worksharing monitor are the only 'major' items i see.

increased performance hopefully?

They spent all of their money ripping out Accurender and putting in Mental
Ray for rendering.

There are some improvements in dimensioning and revision schedules as well.
Hopefully someone that has been testing it can give us some more insight
into the overall performance.

That is what I was waiting for before switching over from AutoCAD
Architecture.

Would you rather have a hammer that is ugly, but at the same time pounds
the nail in the wood easily and efficiently, or a very pretty hammer
that has difficulty hitting the nail?

Of course you want the pretty hammer that ALSO pounds nails efficiently 🙂

oh, here we go with the analogies...;)

why is my hammer soooo SLOW now? my old hammer was digital and fast but
sometimes hit the wrong nails and didn't always pull out enough of them
- now my new one is analogue? and it always pulls out enough nails -
sometimes too many!

but it sure is heavy:)

If you spend more time pulling out nails than driving them in, you might
have some other problems 🙂

The physical user guides for Autodesk products have been available for some
time now, but you have to request them. You can receive one book for each
license you own. See the following link:

Hatching can already rotate with an object in 2008. Edit your pattern, and
change the Orientation in Host Layers to Align with Element.

Now whats up with that? We have professional renders that take alot of work
fixing up Revit building envelopes for rendering in VIZ. Would have been
nice if they just made it a smarter export to VIZ or smarter linking to VIZ.
Heck, maybe its just me that has the problem with getting the model into
VIZ.

By providing a special file format (.FBX) they have improved the translation to VIZ/MAX. By the way, it appears that VIZ might be dying, and all will have to move to MAX anyway.

Re: Iniciamos oficialmente el Foro de Revit en Español
Hola
Me da mucho gusto encontrar un foro en espanol.
Yo soy una arquitecta que actualment vivo en Londres, he comprado una Licencia Revit version 8 en Francia (cuando vivia alli) junto con un ano de suscription que ha vencido el anio pasado noviembre 2007.
Recien he comprado una laptop Dell Precision 2300 que viene con Vista.
He instalado Revit 9.1 la ultima version que he recibido con mi suscription.
He instalado Autocad 2007, y he registrado este producto.
Pero Revit no se abre para nada no pudiendo generar un codigo de requesta para registrar mi Revit
Conclusion no puedo trabajar.
He llamado mi reseler en Paris y tambien otros en Londres y Autodesk miles de veces ,
Absolutamente NADIE se hace responsable de este problema
diciendome que Autodesk no ha creado ningun Patch para hacer compatible Revit 9.1 con Window Vista.
Me dicen que Autodesk no ha creado ningun PATCH para obligarnos a la gente con esta licencia que data de menos de un anio a comprar una migracion hacia la version 2008 diciendome que debo pagar dos anios de licencia para que Revit funcione con Vista.
Yo no puedo de ninguna manera hacer esta inversion teniendo en cuenta que cuando inverti en mi nueva laptop fue con la idea de trabajar com mi Licencia Revit,
Jamas imagine que tenga que pagar 1200 pounds para que mi licencia marche.
Estoy completamente furiosa y creo que no es justo que yo deba desenbolsar este dinero porque Autodesk no le interesa dar una respuesta a este problema.
Hace ya dos semanas que perdi dinero sin trabajar, gaste dinero en comunicaiones telephonicas en francia, uk , suiza y Usa incluyendo cartas y mails, incluyendo el stress que me me genera esta injusta situacion.
Al dia de hoy 10 de marzo de 2008 nadie se hace cargo y
Autodesk no responde.
Espero que alguien por aqui pueda ayudarme por favor,
Aclaro que no puedo instalar windows XP ya que porque o Dell dice que es responsabilidad de Autodesk y me demanda de pagar por una licencia adicional por XP
Gracias por su pronta ayuda
mi mail es : msmarino@btinternet.com
y ni nombre Maria

Hi,
I m new Autocad Cad 2004 user & Start drafting work earlier but now I m fascinated by Revit Architecture Interfce, I have seen a Revit Architecture tutorial in which, I noticed Individual objects like wall, floor & Ceiling, which I suppose to find easy to understand and work with.

I have some queries: -

Can u tell me which software among Auotcad & Revit Architecutre is good in Architectural Drafting?

Do Autocad Architecutre 2008 have indivudial objects (i.e. walls, Floor etc.)?
Do the Auotcad Architecture is similar as Revit Architecture?

In our drafting company only Auotcad is used for Drafting!. Can Autocad Arch 2008 can serve the feature (i.e. walls, floor, ceiling) of Revit architecture?
