AutoCAD® Civil 3D® and Autodesk® 3ds Max Design®: Civil View for All #AU2012

Here is my Autodesk University 2012 class on AutoCAD® Civil 3D® and Autodesk® 3ds Max Design®: Civil View for All.

CI2543-L Civil View For All Dataset

Description

In this hands-on lab, you will learn how to export AutoCAD Civil 3D data into Civil View in Autodesk 3ds 

Max Design software (formerly Dynamite VSP). Step-by-step, you will learn how to create a simple Civil 

3D profile, assembly, and corridor. You will export the Civil 3D software corridor data to a VSP3D file 

format and quickly import the corridor data into Autodesk 3ds Max Design using the Civil View plug-in. 

You will learn how to modify the corridor and create items such as street furniture, vehicles, and trees 

using Civil View. You will also learn how to set up a daylight system and cameras to create still 

renderings and video animations.

Key Learnings

• At the end of this class, you will be able to:
• Create a simple Civil 3D Corridor.
• Export Civil 3D data to use in 3DS Max/Civil View
• Place street furniture such as lights, cameras, guard rails, trees and cars.
• Create a scene with still renderings and video animations.

My Civil View Class

My Civil 3D, Civil View class at #AU2012 went very well. My repeat class is today at 1:00pm pacific time.

AU 2012 Day Two

I had an awesome first day at #AU2012. Today will be just as exciting. My 3D Studio Max and Civil View class starts at 5:00pm pacific time. Wish me luck.

First day of AU2012.

The first day of #AU2012 has been exciting. The Autodesk Fusion 360 class was a blast. Just a few more classes then time to roam the exhibit hall.

Autodesk University 2012 Class Handouts!

I create CDs that resemble vinyl albums with my Autodesk® Civil 3D® 3D Studio Max Design®: Civil View For All class handouts and datasets. They were a hit!
