Wow, great find Marcus

Using 'free' and 'Autodesk' together just sounds wrong!, what's the catch?

I think it is called - lure them in, set the hook while you test the beta. The bill comes later when they decide it is good enough to sell and the free software "Expires"
Sorry for being so cynical.
(By the way, it is pretty slick)

Think of the other words that go with "fly"--"fishing" "catcher" "swatter"etc. You have to register with AutoDesk. But they are coming up with some great new software. I'll bite.
On another note has anyone noticed their other offshoot: Freestyle. It is a cheap 2d drawing program but the cover picture looks like a 3d model, looking suspiciously sketch-up-like.
-
Yeah, freestyle is a great app for very fast landscape designs, use Google Earth and trace over home, slap in some landscape symbols and present it to client on the spot.
-
WOW!, The next step is to animate the model, and be able to see it from any direction as it changes.

The Photo Scene Editor executable will operate until August 1, 2011.
Hopefully its not outrageously spendy after that

FYI --- photofly is now on version 2.0 and the "free" trial has been extended to 12-31-2012.
Never tried it last fall when it showed up on the forum, but I think I will give it a try and see how well it plays with sketchup.
I plan to model my old house as a test and will post the results.
