help with doing a perspective drawing

[Anonymous]

can someone help me with doing  perspective on AutoCAD student version 2019?

Are you trying to make a 3D?

Its kind of like a 3d but you have two vanishing points to which the house
converges. Do you get me?

Thanks for your assistance. I will try it out and get back to you.

You only drew a 2D plan and a flat 2D elevation on the same plane as the plans: you need to be modelling in 3D first before you can start creating perspectives.

May I ask why you are only using "dumb" AutoCAD 2019? There is an ARCHITECTURE version that is also free for students and it draws actual doors/walls/windows/roofs in 3D by default, and auto-creates elevations for you. Its what any employer you want to get a job with is going to look for in the AEC industry.

Here is the link https://www.autodesk.com/education/free-software/autocad-architecture

Upgrade your skills to what your future employers want.

It sounds like this is a student project and you are supposed to draw a 2 point perspective, old school style.  To do it technically correct you will need to look in your Technical Drawing book for the details on how to set this up and execute.  As eluded to in other posts, doing something this way is very old school and not what future employers are going to want from you.  If it is an assignment then you have no choice, but the focus is in on 3D and on using a BIM program like Revit and not AutoCAD for this type of work, IE: Architectural drawing.

That [about DVIEW] will help if a 3D model is built.  If a 2D-constructed perspective is required, DVIEW is of no use.  It is certainly possible to lay out a perspective in AutoCAD, in the same way you do on paper [draw a horizon line, establish vanishing points, rotate the plan for the viewing angle and establish the viewer's eye location and a reference line relative to the plan, project all sorts of lines from there to points on the plan for their intersections with the reference line, set a height for the perspective where the plan meets the reference line, cast lines from various points to the vanishing points, etc., etc.].  It's only a matter of doing the same things electronically that you would do on paper.  As already suggested, presumably you have a textbook or something that describes how to go about that -- it would be quite a chore to try to spell it all out for you here.
