new hatch patterns in acad 2000

[remi]

Hi,

I'm having a problem here with hatching in AutoCAD 2000. The existing hatch patterns doesn't fulfill my needs and I need something more specific to hatch a cobble stone area. In my aCAD hatch patterns there's not a good hatch for it and I looked that I can do my own pattern using Notepad etc. but unfortunately I don't have a time to do that.

So, my question is: Is there any simple ways to create your own hatch patterns for example like in Microstation where it is very easy to do. There is an option that I can use cells (blocks in ACAD) as hatch patterns.

Or can I maybe download a custom *.pat file from somewhere and use it?

Thanks in advance for any answer

Check this site for free hatch patterns http://www.hatchpatterns.com/newhp.htm. There are also some good stone hatches that might suit your needs at just $25.

It's free of charge and you can download hatches and a software to create them (MyHatch)

The link isn't much good if you cannot download the software. I got "Page Not Found" errors for the three I clicked on (English version, Italian version and Installation guide).

Your link on CADTutor works, but the links on the website do not.

They work for me. Anyway I check them again and then post the correct ones another day (now I must go), if I can. Could you double chek them again? it seems strange..
Sorry.
