Dwight's book?

[Anonymous]

I know this will sound very cheeky but is there a "student" version of dwight's book on lightworks for us poor students who struggle to afford books and pay bills???

You are well within your rights to tell me to bugger off and not be so tight...

Thanks,

Mark

Anton Tritt? He's my old Archicad tutor. Say hi to him from me. I should pop down and say hi one day.

Will there be a further supplement to your book for AC11? Not that I have it yet, but just wondering if there are any changes / improvements. Have you been involved in the development / beta testing of 11?

Cheers

I have been a Beta tester and discovered a number of minor issues in imaging.

Since I see the promo of Archicad 11 is well underway, here are things to look for that won't get much press, but delight me:

1: Open GL: responds to the transparency setting for materials. Yay.

2: What were formerly exclusively color shaders can now also be employed as displacement shaders. This is great! A brick shader with shadowed relief!!

3: Since i do so much curvy stuff, I'm relieved that the wall tool can now make smooth curved profiles instead of a buzzillion short segments.

RE: More Book: Depending on whether or not i get this next huge public art job, i might be doing a new small electronic book based in Archicad 11 that revisits the basics with new techniques that only seminar attendees learn because they were developed since the LightWorks book was written - almost two years ago, now. The light cone reigns!

Yay indeed. Shadows would be goo too...and lights.
