VCAD Blog | ||||||
| James Beavers,
President of Whitney Design Group, says: "For very complex projects, I find it easier to create several small VCAD drawings, each represents a different element such as a wall, glass, rail or slab, and then create the DXF files for import into Rhino. This allows you to bring each in separately which makes assigning layers with materials and colors to the various elements very easy. When using this method, I generally assign Z Top and Z Bottom to the same value and Extrude after I have imported the DXF file(s) into Rhino. In either case the process is very fast. I Render it with Flamingo for realistic images including ray tracing and radiosity. Make a walkthrough or automatic solar study in minutes. For very complex 3D files this can take awhile as each frame in the sequence must be rendered separately. " This is a trully practical and affordable way to use computer aided design to increase productivity of an architectural practice without spending an arm and leg for the tools needed to do it. And, to make it even better, VersaCAD and Rhino have the shortest learning curves and least onerous licensing procedures. Whitney Design Group of Miami Beach FL has been using VersaCAD and Rhino for years.
