Hi,

I'm sorry but that's not possible. Railway vehicles wheels are forced to follow the rail, Road vehicles does not.

Hi, this is Stefano from Italy.
I would like to know if it is possible to include railway vehicles, specifically with double steering axles, in the turning simulation.

CadTools General / Idea (CAD tools): Batch Layer Create
« Last post by uksafa on October 31, 2024, 10:29:21 AM »
The ability to either import CVS file OR copy and paste from a source like notepad or excel into a list which would batch create multiple layers

Would be handy if could also pre-select line types, line weights and color in the tool.

This can already be done in a way whereby you are creating points and can override the layer. The layer may not exist and this tool automatically creates the layer. This however requires geometry in the form of points/blocks....

The idea does not require geometry in drawing space, merely creates layers to which geometry (lines, 3D objects, dimensions...) can be assigned to later on

CadTools General / Re: Potential for Autocad LT support?
« Last post by Lars on September 19, 2024, 01:31:14 PM »
Hi,

CadTools does not work with AutoCAD LT due to lack of ActiveX Automation. AutoCAD LT is a limited version of AutoCAD. For about 25 years ago there was a software (LT-Extender) that added missing features and made LT version more or less to a full-blown AutoCAD. However Autodesk's lawyers forced the software company to bury the software in 2000.

As an option CadTools also works with BricsCAD and ZWCAD. For Vehicle turning there are also versions for Intellicad and Microstation.

CadTools General / Re: Potential for Autocad LT support?
« Last post by Peterm on September 19, 2024, 09:26:27 AM »
Good day Lars,

Was using Full version AutoCAD 2018 and loved the vehicle turning function to test if trucks can maneuver on site. I was recently retrenched and the company closed. I am now doing free lance civil engineering design work (2D) and could only afford Autocad 2025 LT. I understood that 3d was not possible with the Lite version of AutoCad. Was wondering if it is possible to have a vehicle turning function only that can be used for the Lite version.  The type of work that I do does not require the other functions. 

(While I was using the full version, I used most of your tools and also want to use this opportunity to say thank you!!! )

Regards PeterM

CadTools Updates / Update available (Build 764)
« Last post by Lars on July 17, 2024, 02:32:51 PM »
New in this Build: CadTools reads supported CAD versions from Windows registry into the list of available CAD versions in Settings form while loading. If you installed a new version of any supported CAD it will be available in CadTools. The "type in self" option is not available any more. Supported CAD systems are still AutcCAD, Bricscad and ZWCAD (might also be vanilla and verticals).

Civil Corner / Re: Surface Profile Wont Plot

That's Greate!

Probably due to the registration, unregistered CadTools is limited to surface profile lengths (200). You should have received a notification about it (maybe it was hidden beneath another object)
