Guest Bucky Posted September 9, 2004 Share Posted September 9, 2004 Has anyone else used rhinoceros 3.0? A friend of mine told me to get rhinoceros 3.0 to facilate the process of designing my car. He feels Rhinoceros has much more user friendly commands for 3d modeling. If so i have not found them.. What i have found it useful for though is joining lines in different planes. A task pedit will not do in Autocad. Another trick i have learned is how to easily subtract shapes form mesh. Well not exactly.. this is how it is done draw the outline for the mesh with half of the shapes you want inside of the mesh on one of the edges (the top half of the shape or the bottom half of the shape) and draw the other mesh with the other half of the shape and place the meshes side by side now i realize the mesh you wanted in one piece is in two pieces now but save it and open it in rhinoceros and join the two meshes. (it doesnt matter how many different meshes you have to draw in autocad and piece together to get the shape you want subtracted because you can join them all in rhinoceros along with polylines) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f700es Posted September 9, 2004 Share Posted September 9, 2004 I have Rhino 2.0 and I have to say that it does ROCK! I am also trying to learn it byt drawing a car but I am so used to AutoCAD that I find that I am having trouble. I have seen tutorials and such on Rhino that shows that it can do what you want. Do a web search for Rhino tutorials and you should find more than you could ever use. It is hard to beat for it's price.

cad2008 Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Rhinoceros is a good solution. But you can use Genesis Integral Object Designer. Genesis IOD is surface and solid modeler with a powerfull GuideGen command that is not available in Rhinoceros. If you are an Autocad user it will we easy to use for you, because it is an ARX plugin for Autocad 2008 and 2007. regards.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
