Sweep paths for vehicles

I find it absurd that AutoCad C3D doesn't have a vehicle sweep routine built in to the design software. This is as basic to roadway design as superelevation is to horizontal curvature. Am I missing something? Is it there, or is there some reason it is not there? Very frustrating.

 

Buying third party software such as AutoTurn or Pathplanner R4 seems ridiculous.

I found a much cheaper solution for vehicle turn paths!  Rob Gadbaw over at CGS had a great add-on application for vehicle turn paths that was less than $600.00  I would check them out at http://www.cgsplus.com

 

Works for me on R2012 - R2014.  Give them a try...

That looks like a great program, but the cost is much higher than $600. The initial license is $1,295 and then a subscription being $395.

I came across this announcement while researching turn path analysis software.
