Autodesk Acquires Dynamite VSP and Dynamite SIM

You had to sort of wonder how long this would take given the amount of love Dynamite has been given on box covers and in various demos over the last few years. My best wishes to Bruce and the crew at Dynamite, they have a rocking product, and I hope I’ll get to play with it more now that it’s in the company stable.

Stefan Didak has what has to be the swankest home office setup I’ve ever seen, and looks like he’s whipped up a nice clean utility to match his environs. Check it out if you find yourself playing in drawings with multiple corridors.

 

Eagle Point Transitioning Customers to C3D

From the Eagle Point site comes this little baby block buster:

With AutoCAD Civil 3D now in its 5th major release, we are excited about standardizing on Civil 3D as our development platform.  This means that we are able to focus our energy on developing new technologies that help you complete your land development, transportation, and environmental projects better, faster and more affordably than ever before.

What’s this mean to you? Not sure, but it looks like C3D has managed to kill one of the “competitors.” And it looks like the EP guys have gotten smarter about playing the if you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em game. If you’re on EP, be sure you talk to a number of resellers about the transition process. I’m sure there will be lots of people very interested in helping you make the move.

 

AEC Bloggers Day 2009

Today was a great day for all invited bloggers. We were invited to a webcast tailored for us, to show before release, the Subscription Advantage Pack (SAP). I’m pretty sure there will be duplicate items blogged about this, so my apologies in advance.

The SAP is scheduled for release to subscription users of Civil 3D. We were in great Civil 3D company at this webcast. Many Civil 3D ‘celebrities’ were in attendance, such as Dana Probert (BIM on the Rocks and Autodesk fame), Peter Funk (THE man), “Junction” Jack Strongitharm, Jason Hickey, and I even saw a blurb from Dave Simeone. And lest I forget, our very own James Wedding was there too. These people (and many more that I didn’t mention) have been very busy for a while on getting this ready. Follow the jump to get my take on this cool event. (more…)
