I've checked out Zmodeler, but I can't get the newer version to install. I'd obviously like solidworks or Inventor....hell any of those good programs, I just can't make that type of investment now. I imagine there is someone out there that maybe can point me in the right direction or help me out so I can get up and working here.

PM me if you can help me out

 

I haven't used either of those, but I have used I-deas in a few classes...I liked that program. may not be what you're looking for...

BTW try downloading them from limewire or something with a hack...just make sure not to DL a virus

 

yeah try limwire i got cad 2006 and the new photo shop on there with a cracking code and i got lucky and didnt get any viruses

 

Yeah, I've been looking at those torrent sites, but that stuff seems like a nightmare. I suppose I am gonna try to go to that limwire site on my other laptop....virus there and I won't lose anything valuable.

I'm after simple solutions...lol.

 

Well, there goes limewire....just killed my other laptop. Downloaded cad2006 and now blue screen of death and the laptop won't restart...so gotta wipe her out.

try alibre... free version

idk if this will help but look up emachineshop.com

 

Limewire is the worst possible file sharing software out there. I've installed it before and my puter crashed within a week of the install. I thought it was a fluke and I nuked and reformated. Installed limewire again and the puter crashed again within a few days.

I've been using bitcomet for about a year and a half now without issue. Just virus scan your downloads but bitcomet its self runs great.

But I hope you aren't planning on selling anything that you are modeling in this software. If you are going to profit from the use ot the software, you should be paying for the software.

 

It's more for the benefit of learning the software and gaining some vision on personal projects. If it got to the extent to where I ran a business off of it, of course I would purchase a fully registered and supported version.

 

I have a guy local saying he has Solidworks 2003....would I be in any way very limited using this older version? I'm on XP...that shouldn't be an issue I assume.

 

I can't imagine you would. ...

Uh oh....looks like I got a possible line on the new version of Solidworks and Autocad

 

pm'd you

 

has anybody gotten a definite source for solidworks?

i will have my friend who is the torrent whiz check and see if he can find it. if i hear anything ill report back

 

i have autocad and solidworks. both are on CD's so i can try to overnight them on aim. i don't know how to make a torrent ( i dont know where to set up tracker ) so don't try and convince me. i'll double check my version #'s tomorrow

i like solid works much more

torrents are ALWAYS the best bet when it comes to apps. check the comments people leave so you know if its a clean DL or not... i use torrentspy.com with azureus vuze prog. virus free for over a year!
