Rumours are all you will get untill the official release is announced (hopefully some time soon - late May/June).

Care to share any rumours you have heard?

Better yet, make some of your own up. They will have the same veracity as the others.

Hi barry!

Sure I can share it!

Here it is, but I think it's a fake: arquinauta.com/foros: ¿Archicad 12?

Regards!
AC12 will be announced at next week's GS User Roundtable on May 8th (it's on the agenda, anyway).

Ok, here it goes: I heard (replace w/ hope to be exact) that -
1) the lightworks engine now includes global illumination and final gather - plus the ability to work w/ the all the LWA materials.
2) there is a dedicated tool for creating generic 3d forms & shapes w/ all the typical 3d tools available in modern day 3d modelers, and the ability to set what its function would be (wall, roof, slab, etc...)
3) worksheet tool is like any section elevation tool - it can be a live view of the plan or section/ elevation with the option to make it a "drawing", as opposed to the detail tool which is strictly 2d.
4) OpenGL is improved to match all the abilities of sketchup with realtime shadows, and no "dark side of the moon" effects.
5) grid tool works flawlessly - create / delete only in the plan, and able to adjust visibility, size, etc. in each view separately...
6) it's possible to copy paste detail views from other projects - which would bring in the corresponding detail viewpoint, and its contents with the view settings to the new project.
7) archiglazing is included
8 ) archistair is included
9) and last but not the least, there would be a secret bonus feature that will make every revit user drool with envy

maybe I'm a little bit too optimistic...?

And if you want another absurd fantasy, Archicad 12 will appear as a centerfold in July's PlayCAD magazine.

¿Why "absurd fantasy"? ¿Isn't possible?
