Can it work like AutoCAD Lift Designer?

Hello, there is a program called Lift Designer, can a study similar to the working logic of this program be carried out by preparing Lips or doing other studies on AutoCAD? Can you show an example of such a study? I would like to thank you in advance for your help and support on this subject, good day

Can you show us one?  What does it do?

 

EDIT:  If it is, indeed, DigiPara LiftDesigner that you're talking about, they have a free edition.  Is the issue that it works in Revit but you want something to use in AutoCAD?  If so, and if 2D drawings will do, most elevator manufacturers' websites will generate .DWG files of plans and sections for you, with your specifics about floors, capacity, etc.

That's really asking allot for a program in LISP. While it may be possible, it would take a very large effort to program and I doubt you're going to get that for free or even cheap. You would be best contracting a professional programmer such as Lee Mac, or contacting the makers of Lift Designer to see if they can add an AutoCAD version to their extensive program.

I'll give you the answer of given enough time and proper programing yes it can. 

AutoCAD is sort of like Home Depot all the parts are there you just have to put it together. Sounds simple but it's not. You want an expert system and you will have to create the expertise. The tools are there.

This is 12 months work of programming around 100+ lisps. The image is only fraction of what can be done.

I go back to the old DCA days for my examples when whole programs were made in lsp. David C. Arnold (DCA) made the basis of civil 3d (arguably.) during winters when surveying was tough.
