This training CD delivers 38 in-depth, step-by-step, hands on tutorials for 3D Studio VIZ 3.0, and more than 50 tutorials for AutoCAD 14. This CD delivers all the skills you need to use 3D Studio VIZ 3.0 to create photorealisitc images and animations, and AutoCAD 14 to create working drawings.
The 3D Studio VIZ 3.0 projects on the CD cover photorealistic lighting, creating custom materials, modeling with NURBS and modifiers, linking VIZ designs to AutoCAD 14 and 2000 drawings, working with external references and proxy objects, and creating your own tools and toolbars. You also learn how to control visibility with fog, and how to create walkthrough animations with the Walkthrough Assistant. You master simple character modeling and animation, camera matching and rendering virtual environments with Smooth Move Panorama. Perhaps most important, you learn how to create 3D models from floor plans, and to work with 3D geometry created in AutoCAD.
The AutoCAD 14 projects on the CD cover 2D drawing and editing commands, creating symbols and symbol libraries, dimensioning drawing geometry, model space, paper space, creating custom menus, toolbars and scripts, an introduction to AutoLISP, and 3D modeling commands. Undertake the projects in order to receive a very complete course in AutoCAD, or review just the projects that meet your immediate needs.
System Requirements: Netscape 5.0+ or Internet Explorer 5.0+. TCP/IP installed. If you can view pages on Amazon, you can use this CD. You do not have to be online to use the CD, and all the source files required by the projects are on the CD.
