Rating: - Frustration
I am extremely disappointed with this product! I was unable to get to the proper scale so it would fit my screen. No matter what scale I entered, it stayed the same on the screen. I just wanted to create a 2D floor plan and be able to place furniture, etc., and was totally unable to accomplish this.
Rating: - Close but No Cigar
The program has loads of excellent features objects, and very good rendering capability BUT...
You cannot output this to a standard dxf or dwg format. (If you try the current "dxf" ouput option, you get a file that autocad (the primary software that uses and created dxf) cannot display.
When asked about this I was told by Broderbund tech support that they don't intend to provide a capability to produce blueprint quality / compatible outputs. If you plan on trying to print out ... Read More
Rating: - GARBAGE... I WAS SHOCKED BY THE NEW INTERFACE...
NOT EVEN WORTH THE $10 BUCKS I PAID FOR IT. I HAVE VERSION 4.0 SO MUCH EASIER TO USE. VERSION 5 PRO AND DELUXE ARE NOT WORTH THE TIME,EFFORT, OR MONEY. BRODERBUND HAS CHANGED TO A COMPANY CALLED CADSOFT TO DESIGN THESE PROGRAMS. I SUGGEST HIGHLY USING INDIVIDUAL SOFTWARE ( TOTAL 3D HOME DELUXE 6.0 OR 7) THEY ARE VERY EASY TO LEARN AND THE INTERIOR DESIGNING PART OF IT IS REALLY FUN.
Rating: - This version is horse crap. Pitiful and useless....
I used a previous version on my old computer and had no difficulty. Apparently, I've lost intelligence in the past year and a half, as I cannot get this version to cooperate. You draw on the 2nd floor and the walls show up on the 1st. How'd that happen? I'd love to know. I gave up trying to draw from scratch, which I did before on the previous version, and began trying to modify an example model. Bugs are everywhere. I want my money back. I'm not a computer software engineer, but I do have a ... Read More
Rating: - 1 Star or less
Strong "don't buy" of this product... less than 1 star. I ordered it online at Amazon.com (through J&R Music and Computer World). Both of these companies delivered as promised... 5 stars for them. I was very pleased with past versions of 3D Architect, unfortunately version 5.0 (and 5.1) has problems, the same problems as other users have noted. When I ran into these problems on day 1 of using ver 5.0 I went to the Broderbund website and upgraded the system to 5.1 (available online ... Read More
