AutoCAD 2019 Toolsets Trial Version??

[Anonymous]

I wanted to download a trial of the new AutoCAD Architecture toolset. I was able to download a trial of AutoCAD 2019 just fine.

However all the other verticals are not available to download except as 2018 versions. 

Anyone know how to download a trial version of the new toolsets.

Where are you doing this?  You have to download each one separately: https://www.autodesk.com/products/autocad/included-toolsets#0

You only get the toolset if you subscribe to AutoCAD..  I don't think the 2019 version of the individual tool sets have been fulled released or they are in the process of being released at this time and everything is not posted yet (for download purpose).

Tool sets are apparently only available for "New" subscriptions after 3/22/2018. So much for Subscription giving you all product enhancements.

I assume the verticals will still be released as separate products for existing customers. If you had a subscription to a vertical, you're not technically a "new" AutoCAD subscriber and won't have access to the toolsets.

This is really just an attempt to drive a price increase as well as a half hearted attempt at making AutoCAD appear different that competing products like BricsCAD which since it's existence in 2002 has seemed to really take off as a result of Autodesk's Subscription plans.

Hi Mark, 

Using the link at the bottom of that page if you try to download any of the toolsets it just gets you to download 2018 version

Currently the only 2019 toolset available is raster design.

I guess I'll have to wait.
