OK, thanks. And I respect the confidential part of course!
😄

Hmm- interesting. I'll contact Martin who makes Cheetah3D, ask him how to get around the problem. I'll also drop the Unity crowd a note too (the perfect excuse now to join their forum!).

Thanks 😄

Tom

I have read the story with the google translator English-German. that's just fine, probably better than the original. Thanks 😆 😆 😆

Thanks, Tom- very helpful. I'll pass the offending object on to our testing folks to see if they can reproduce your problem in the lab.

Cheers Jeff! 😄

Blender, I thought, also has an on board decimator. I fully appreciate why you would not like the program, however. Some who use it, do so only to port their models through it for different file extensions.
I haven't used Blender since v2.45. But it taught me some concepts or approaches that can be applied in Sketchup.
Some folks who use Sketchup, I sense, use it only as a necessary evil to get to the final picture.

Wishful thinking:
Would be nice if there was a refresh, or "connection keep alive" either on this server or on my network. You can see I really don't understand anything about connectivity.
Just thinking.

PS and the same for GoogleEarth. A refresh button.

Well I am not a programmer, so I can't judge whether Qt framework is horrible or not 😄
We will see what Dassault and Graebert can do with DS in future...

It doesn't really matter if you aren't a programmer, Qt just has a very different approach in its interface, to how OSX works. If you are a windows user, you won't notice much difference. Having said that, the file system in DS, is much better than that of QCad, but then QCad hasn't seen an upgrade in ages 😞 But on Mac, DS crawls. Fortunately there are good alternatives like PowerCADD 8/9 and Highdesign, both designed to work on the Mac. 😄

I don't know Mansell's. It's the Diwan (Alcester Road, Moseley) or the Jyoti (Stratford Road, Hall Green) for me. Channi's is really good too, on Stratford Road, in Sparkbrook, but I haven't been there for a while. The Plaza on Ladypool Road used to be good also, but it's not as great as it used to be ever since winning restaurant of the year.

Hmm dunno. I'm not too sure....

So, please suggest me something for him.., from where He can take this service at an affordable price..???

Large scanning service

That IS cool.

Yes. Read Architosh's article here;

Autodesk appears serious about releasing AutoCAD for Mac. The rumors have spilled over to screenshots. But we think its more than rumors and screen shots this time.

Open Clip is currently only for Mac, but if it is available for Windows, we could easily support this.

Transferring files with other programs is still pretty easy on Windows, and we have a lot of users that will just WBlock their desired part in AutoCAD, and then import that DWG file into bonzai3d.

Also, in bonzai3d there is an option to Export only the Selected entities, so if you only want to transfer part of a file, just pick that and export using this option...

If you were designing a building where perhaps it was windy every late summer (Rome? Rome gets pretty windy in the late summer!), this could be really useful if you wanted to direct the air current away from an area that you needed to sit out in, and enjoy the late sun. Just an idea. In sustainable technology, CAE really comes in handy for finding exactly how much you need for strength but how little you would need to make something cost effective. For example, using certain types of costly metals. You could also discover where a model would need extra strength etc etc. Mind warping stuff, but great if you like a bit of maths now and then! 😲 😄

Good to know, my kids will probably use something more 'cheezy'.
