![]() AutoCAD i hate, Microstation is far to complex for it's own good (but don't get me wrong could already 5 years ago do far more than all the others can now!), ArchiCAD is a good straight forward drafting tool for architects doing large projects, however has limited 3D modeling capabilities outside regular walls, slabs, windows, doors etc. Personally i see myself more as a designer/artist than a technician/drafter, this definitely influences my opinion. ![]() Mainly because EVERYONE! is looking for the answer to what program they want to be devoted to, as do i and forums like this often give a clearer understanding of the pros and cons, even though i have tried to stay away from committing to this discussion of comparison, i now feel compelled to throw in a few opinions even though i think it is a discussion on the same level as that of choosing between Mac and PC - very much depends on 'feeling' either you like it or you don't, problem is you have to work at least a year with a drafting program to get the 'real' feeling for it, not so easy when facing the big (economic)choice. After having read all the (heated) discussions on this forum, lately mostly about BIM and workgroups, I feel compelled to react. ![]() Having worked with first AutoCAD a couple of years, 5 solid years with Bentley Microstation Architectural and now 2 solid years of ArchiCAD, parallel to this VW (which i purchased privately) i have quite a good idea what they all stand for. ![]()
