Joseph Marquez Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 I just learned how to add material to objects so I am having fun with that but I was wondering if Autocad 2011 had an object library were I can add trees and bushes to make my building more realistic. If Autocad 2011 does not have a library, what is the best website where I can get 3D blocks for free. This is what I have so far, I know it is not perfect but I just finished my freshman year of college so I dont know too much yet. Also, I was wondering if it was possible to create a viewport in another window because I have two monitors and I want one for top view and the other monitor for an isometric view. Thank you! -Joseph Marquez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you! -Joseph Marquez You could stretch your autoCAD window up to the other monitor then set your "vports" to 2, split vertically. For adding landscape trees, is it for presentation purposes(rendered perspective)? if so I suggest adding it in photoshop. Not sure for AutoCAD2011 but i think there is a built in landscape library, but is only 2d trees, plants. the last I used it was in aCAD2006 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph Marquez Posted July 23, 2011 Author Share Posted July 23, 2011 Yeah I was hoping I didnt have to do that but I guess thats the only way. Thanks!

Thanks!And the trees are for presentation purposes, I guess Ill have to learn Photoshop now haha. Yep presentation and photoshop go hand in hand, Next to powerpoint. Prepare raw perspectives>do post production on perspectives>adding title block, texts, diagrams> arranging em in powerpoint/ presentation boards> preparing your 15min speech explaining your work hehe! I hope im not moving away from your thread question Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReMark Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 You start adding in 3D blocks for shrubs and trees and that will significantly increase file size in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
