      Hi Guys,

      I was passing bay and thought that I will share something interesting with you...
      Have a look at SoftCAD.3D launched in 1997

      I used to do all my uni 3D projects in it and many 3D visuals for my clients.
      At the same time I worked for a company called SoftARCH which was the dealer of SoftCAD.3D and ArchiTECH.PC (people who used to be involved in ArchiCAD by Graphisoft).

      I still have my SoftCAD.3D, English Lite Version 1.16 (FREE Version)
      It has:

      • Terrain Tool
      • Object Tool
      • Library Tool
      • Geometry Tool
      • Scene Tool
      • 2D/3D Positioning
      • Textures Tool
      • Rendering engine with raytracing
      • Animation
      • Light sources
      • Sun position
      • DXF import/export (DWG import/export in PRO version)

      Still works under Windows XP.

      Few print screens below...
      Pretty advanced...
      Any similarities with SketchUp? πŸ˜‰

      I will try to publish some renderings going back to 1997-2000 - all done in SoftCAD.3D
