If anybody attended AU last year they will have noticed that Phil Read of Autodesk Consulting fame presented his Advanced Revit session on a Macbook Pro using Bootcamp, which allows him to boot between Mac OS X and Windows, so that he can run Revit on his Macbook.Īlso, a company called Parallels Inc introduced virtualization software last year which allows you to run Mac OS X and Windows side by side. However, the landscape has now changed and it all comes down to the fact that all current Apple hardware are based on Intel processors rather than the aging PowerPC. I'd love to see Autodesk port Revit to the Mac, but commercially I don’t think its viable, well that’s what Autodesk insiders have told me in the past.
I'd go as far as to say that over half of these are Mac users running Vectorworks.
I live near Winchester, Hampshire,UK and this is a strong hold for architectural firms. A lot of architects still use Mac's, its just one of those design things. I meet a lot of architects and designers in my role and I have lost count how many have asked whether Revit runs on the Mac. These days I don’t got too bothered about the platform wars, because to me its just an interface to your hardware, Revit as a BIM platform excites me more. I personally love the Mac environment, but I have learned to get on with PC's and the Windows platform. My first computer was a Macintosh LCII, if anybody can remember one of those? I've worked for companies which have used both platforms. Techniques such as lighting and exposure, tint, and filters can be used to boost your designs.This is often a hot topic on the Revit AUGI forums and it some times gets very heated! Whats better, Mac or PC? Well, I've been a long term Mac user as well as a Windows PC user. With over 1,900 assets to choose from, projects can be brought to life. Revit users can utilize the Enscape Asset Library for their renders. If your client, for example, wants to see something different in the design, their feedback can be implemented, and the changes will show up in real time.
Thanks to simultaneous editing and visualization, project changes are immediately available to evaluate in Enscape.
The benefit of performing a batch rendering is that time can be saved when creating quality renders.Ĭhanges made in Revit will instantly appear in Enscape. In Revit, you can render a single image, or you can perform a batch rendering, which is a set of Named Views or Favorite Views. The Enscape ribbon will become visible once you click the menu option. Once installed, you will see Enscape as a top-level menu option. Using Enscape as the rendering software for Revit will provide users a photorealistic snapshot of their 3D model.
