The Best API

Anonymous

I have found the best api for ArchiCAD is by far Archiforma. Does anyone agree?

I like ArchiForma quite a bit, but in my book ArchiTerra is the best API. Cigraph is doing a great job.

API?
What means for API? It should be Application Programming Interface. The Archicad API is made by Graphisoft, not any third partner.

So, I think you should say "Plug-ins", or "Add-ons".

I use ArchiDesigner and have found it straight forward and simple to use for all my difficult shaped windows.

The version I have is for AC 7.0 so I'm not sure if there are any improvements for AC8.0 my only gripe with the version I have is that it doesn't do corner windows other than that it works just the way I want.

You should have made it a poll. Would be interesting to know what people are using in ArchiCAD.

I would be interested to know how does Archilumos preform (render times wise) compared to other radiosity renderer's such as Cinema 4d or Strata 3d Pro?
