I thought version 2 was already coming out. Too late to wish?
1- I'd like subtractive manipulation of blocks.
2- a roof making facility. overhangs, cornice styles, slopes hips, gables.. so on.
3- texture by face
4- Lights menu (already created downlights etc with real world attribuutes combined with fixture (which could be replaced if desired)
5- array capabilities with windows and the window frame objects.
6- Would like to (as example with windows above duplicate directly on top of original then move specified amount
7- MIRROR abilities
8-Any thing that will lead to a module environment or tools that will make DW do some basic architectural work for you. ("Set a 3046 SH window right here. hd ht. 6'10".") Cheaper 3d house programs do this (although the end effect is cheaper), but sometimes a quick cabinet perspective or simple walkthrough model is needed.I hate it when clients get some junky 3d image from a contractor and to tell the truth, I can't even emulate it without an inordinate amount of work on DW.
Kevin how can you judge the shootout? --Isn't DW competing?
Or is it the lack of a 2D-3D team? Glad you're in there anyway.One wish Just make us a program that will put this years winner to shame in the same constraints.
