Preparation before installing Autodesk software (and my 3ds Max removal tip)
I was removing an existing Autodesk Building Design Suite Premium 2012 install prior to test deploying the 2013 version. Most of the components (AutoCAD, Revit, Inventor Fusion, Showcase etc.) uninstalled fine but I struck a problem with 3DS Max Design 2012. It failed as was unable to access a set
Wayward Sailor: The real Tristan Jones is as interesting as the fiction
I read Tristan Jones’ book Incredible Voyage as a kid. It was a rollicking tale about a yacht voyage from the Dead Sea to Lake Titicaca. This adventure had everything from evading pirates in the Middle East, hauling a yacht into the Andes (chased by customs officers) and a voyage

AutoCAD Exchange (ed) for AutoCAD Facebook, but not for me
Coincidence is a strange thing. Last night I was playing around with some new TypePad Blog Themes and considering a major re-design. While that may happen it will take a while so I decided a quick “makeover” was needed. Although the design hasn’t changed I have reviewed the sidebars

An EPIC Meetup for 3D design, fabrication, construction, operation data users
The Effective Prototyping, Interoperability & Communication Group kicked off earlier this year in Auckland, New Zealand. Unlike many software related user groups it does not focus on a platform, profession or, even, industry. If you create, manage or consume 3D design data it is aimed at you. The impetus for
Modifying a Building Design Suite 2013 Deployment fails at FBX?

AutoCAD Rocks with 7lions and designer Marcello Martino. — #AU2011
Memories of Autodesk University 2011 when I saw this YouTube: AutoCAD Rocks with 7lions and eyewear designer Marcello Martino. It was great to meet Marcello at AU, seen in Shaan Hurley’s photo right. He created the red Autodesk University Glasses using AutoCAD Design Suite. The video shows the creation
