I have been ridiculed for even thinking of using something like Lightwave, or another Amiga 3D program for CAD, but still think it could be done if someone would write some CAD specific tools as an add-on for Lightwave, Imagine, or Aladdin 4D.  It sure would be nice to only have to learn one program and be able to use it for both 3D animation, 2D & 3D CAD drawings and modeling with "walk-throughs/fly-throughs" that most clients want these days.
...



Well, I have the only "true" 3d CAD package that was available for the Amiga:

DynaCadd from CRP Koruk.

I always wanted an Amiga raytracing software capable of importing .dxf and/or .cgm format(s).

Then I could export a dimensioning-wise precise 3d-model from DynaCadd to e.g. Reflections (MoonZoom), Imagine, TurboSilver, Real 3d or Maxxon Cinema 4d and render/animate it there...
All the best,

Yes - from here...

EDIT:
Hmmmmmm - interesting.
From Amiga-news.de the link works - once linked here, it doesn't work any longer.

In case it doesn't work for you either, here's the link to the news item at amiga-news.de:

Cycas (Amiga-News)

The news item is in German - but I think you'll understand the Buzz-words "Download" and "Englische Version:"...
All the best,

Thanx for this great link!
And even in German...

Do you know if a similar software review exists somewhere for DynaCadd v3?
All the best,
