Hi A while a go I saw some downloadable free mpeg training movies showing you how to do different things with nurb modeling. (I think there was a lamp modeled) I think they were available from this site or a link. Does anyone know where I can get them as they looked great and I wish I had them. many thanks

Fantastic! Thankyou for the swift reply and top tip. Tim

Im having trouble accesing the new textures in 10.5. I have only just discovered all the new textures that have come with my 10.5 update. However The only way I seem to be able to get at them is to open up the file, "Metals, Plastics, Glass.mcd" for example and then import them into the file i'm using. This is fine really, now Ive found them, and may well be the way I am supposed to do it. But I expected them to appear with the other items shown in the window after going via:- ? Resourse Browser ? New resource in 'file ?' ? Create Resource & select Renderworks texture - ?Click on obj attribute in the edit texture window and a drop down window appears with various textures in it. But not the new ones?? Is this correct. or have I lost the plot. Its Top program by the way!

Hi All downloaded fine. Im just getting my head round the new workspace editor now Many thanks for responding.

Tom. Any news on when I will be able to download these missing Holes/ Fasteners e.t.c I am now sorted as regards Renderworks. I have vectorworks WITH Renderworks now. thankyou

Hello Thankyou for the quick response. I thought I was getting an upgrade from 8.52 . It says in two uk resellers literature Vectorworks upgrade from 8.x or below (Mac) It was not made clear I in effect buy the complete 'new' Basic VKWs 10 package making the old one redundant, for the price of an upgrade. (is that right) So some of the Mechanical features in the design pallete I had on the 'basic' 8.5.2 package I dont get on the 'basic' 10.1 package unless I pay more for the Mechanical Module. (I see i can add some fixings but I had a much wider array of drafting aids, holes, fastners e.t.c) Obvioulsy this is down to the UK disributers 'Computers Unlimited' not making it clear to the companys they sell to what the product now is. Also what about Renderworks? resellers (mac wharehouse in the uk) seemed to think this was part of the new package when I asked about upgrading at the same time I UPGed to VKWs 10 I spoke to 'computers unlimited' who assured me it WAS an upgrade which I suppose it in the sense it is the compleate new basic package. (but they didnt explain this) But they tell me I hade to buy Rederworks as a Module, more money AGAIN!! even though I own vectorworks 8 that I installed with VKWs 8.5.2. Obviously this is not your fault, but I kind of feel a bit miss led. Thanks for being there anyway. And I do like you product. Tim

Hello I have just upgraded from Vectorworks 8.5.2 with Renderworks 8 installed also to Vectorworks 10.01 This is on a mac 1gb G4 I thought It would update my existing folder and version but I see I have a new folder as described in the read me files. However I didn?t get asked for any old serial numbers and when tried to add modules it added something (couldn't tell what) I seem to have a program now that has some better features. more advanced 3d e.t.c but what's happened to all the design features i had like drawing aids & fastners & hardware. e.t.c which I could access when switching to the mech eng workspace. Now I seem to have a standard and classic workspace and Less features than my old program. What's up Doc! I don't understand what I?ve done wrong. It cant be as it seems. Also what do I do about renderworks. Have I got to get enother update for that have I?. there doesnt seem to be an update available in the uk. So whats the score. I cant have gained some features but lost more....can I??
