Patrick Fritsch Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Does anyone know if there is anything available for Vectorworks to simulate various vehicle turning and maneuvering such as Autoturn (http://www.transoftsolutions.com/products). I've used Autoturn a lot in the past, it's great but only available for Autocad. Quote Link to comment
Dieter @ DWorks Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 We have gotten the Truck Space plugin through VW Service Select a couple of weeks ago that does exactly this. But I don't know if other countries get it through there. Quote Link to comment
Monadnoc Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 I don't. But I noticed on the Autoturn website a "Turning Templates" offering which says it works in any CAD program, "Turning Templates operate in any CAD environment ..." So it might not be as good as using the actual program, but it's better than nothing. Monadnoc Quote Link to comment
Bob Holtzmann Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 I have always wanted an English version of StickCar plugin for Vectorworks, but the StickMan never released one. http://stickpackage.sub.jp/ Quote Link to comment
Patrick Fritsch Posted June 1, 2012 Author Share Posted June 1, 2012 I used Google translate to have the install and usage translated into english. Do you know if it works in VW 2012? Quote Link to comment
Dexie Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Does the Stickpackage mentioned above have the same function as AutoTurn whereby a site layout can be tested for vehicle tracking. I have been looking for an AutoTurn type Plugin for some time and would be interested any information on locating one. Quote Link to comment
Assembly Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 If only there was a PIO app store. Quote Link to comment
Bob Holtzmann Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 (edited) I had a look at the manual for the Vw 2011 version of StickPackage. It translates: ----------------------------------------------------- Please copy in, "Plug-Ins" folder with its contents "StickPackage16J" folder. (For Macintosh version is also available with a copy of the library into the user> Application Support> VectorWorks> 2011> Plug-ins for MacOSX.) Please copy the contents of a folder in the file of "Into the Workspaces" of, "Workspaces" folder only (VW2011_StickPackage.vww). (For Macintosh version is also available with a copy of the library into the user> Application Support> VectorWorks> 2011> Workspaces of MacOSX.) After re-launching the VectorWorks2011J, work screen menu> Please select your VW2011_StickPackage.vww (VW2011_StickPackage or). Because some of the functions of VectorScript that are used in StickPackage has become deprecated future, check if they contain items display a warning> VectorScript Other Preferences> Vectorworks> the menu, the execution of the script If there is a warning dialog to that effect is displayed at (Does not contain a check by default) will you. Use as it is because it does not affect work in this version of Vectorworks. ----------------------------------------------------- Generally, 2011 plug-ins work fine in 2012, so it's worth giving a try. The errors don't affect it. I have not tried this version, but I did try an older one, in which clicking at locations on the screen will place a vehicle shape with tracks leading up to it.

D Wood Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Has that been translated into some obscure language and back again without reference to the original? Because it's incomprehensible gibberish. Quote Link to comment
Bob Holtzmann Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 (edited) As with all plug-ins, it's just a matter of copying the items to the Plugins folder (including the occasional special data folder), then finding them with the Workspace Editor, and installing into menus and toolbars. So the installation of Stickpage is fairly standard. It is likely that the Workspace file is not needed. Edited August 24, 2012 by Bob-H Quote Link to comment
Dexie Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 I have installed the Plug-ins and everything seems to work except that all dialogue boxes display random character so it is just guess work as to what the numbers you type into the fields actually mean. Quote Link to comment
tim woolcott Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 I'd like to resurrect this thread. It looks like the link to the sticker plug-in is broken. Is this still the best thing to use for vehicle paths (if so is there a new link) or is there another one for Vectorwork. (I'm still using VW 2012) Quote Link to comment
StickMan Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 If you're still looking for it, it can be downloaded from this link destination, so please try. It corresponds to the version from v2011 to v2018. StickCar : https://github.com/stickpackage/stickcar Quote Link to comment
