| 02:01.09 | richard12345 | Hi, I was curious to know where I can download the WinXP version of BRL CAD, as it seems missing on the SF pages and yet is listed as supporting it. |
| 02:03.00 | learner | richard12345, there is a beta available to select groups, just not on sf.net |
| 02:03.20 | learner | richard12345, there will be a binary download available on sf.net in about a week if you can wait (much better than the beta) |
| 02:04.08 | richard12345 | Yes I can wait for a week. Are you sure? |
| 02:04.48 | richard12345 | Do you know if it does automatic dimensioning? |
| 02:05.06 | learner | i do know |
| 02:05.11 | learner | it does not :) |
| 02:05.36 | richard12345 | It does not do autodimensioning? |
| 02:05.46 | learner | richard12345, the 7.8.0 release is being prepared as I type this -- unix binaries likely will post tomorrow, first windows shortly thereafter |
| 02:05.48 | richard12345 | How do people model with it then? :) |
| 02:06.12 | learner | it's quite powerful in other aspects ;) |
| 02:06.22 | richard12345 | Great! |
| 02:06.26 | richard12345 | has anyone ever attempted architecture with it? |
| 02:06.34 | richard12345 | So I hear. |
| 02:06.34 | learner | somewhat different modeling philosophy in general from what you're probably used to as well |
| 02:06.42 | learner | yes, they have |
| 02:06.57 | richard12345 | That's good to know. |
| 02:07.49 | richard12345 | I've done boolean if that's what you're talking about in terms of modeling philosophy. |
| 02:08.05 | learner | hm, that reminds me .. there is was an architecture company in florida that was interested in making the mods necessary to make brl-cad their primary sole modeler.. should see what they're up to |
| 02:08.22 | learner | not just boolean, but that is certainly part of it |
| 02:08.48 | richard12345 | What would the architecture company be? |
| 02:08.55 | learner | reading through the mged tutorial might give you a basic idea of some of the fundamentals |
| 02:09.07 | richard12345 | on the main site? |
| 02:09.09 | richard12345 | ok |
| 02:09.11 | learner | i can't recall their name.. just remembered their interest |
| 02:09.12 | learner | yeah |
| 02:09.35 | learner | it was a small firm, iirc |
| 02:10.33 | richard12345 | Fair enough. Anyway, thanks for the news and direction. I'll check it out and see. Catch you later! |
| 02:10.34 | learner | quick overview of the primitives here i put together a while ago: http://ftp.brlcad.org/tmp/primitives/Primitives3_grouped_labels.png |
| 02:10.53 | learner | no probl. cheers |
| 02:10.59 | richard12345 | I'll read it over dinner. :) Thanks again. |

| 13:26.31 | CIA-5 | BRL-CAD: allocation of olso_mats were a serious bottleneck in profiling results. |
