Project Vasari

It seems Autodesk realizes the importance of quick 3D modeling for basic conceptual studies and is releasing their version of Sketch Up. Right now it is available for free downloading but from everything Ive seen on the program so far, and the current discussions, very few seem impressed. Granted the software is just taking its first steps, Im of the opinion that Autodesk should concentrate more on improving its own current programs instead of trying to reinvent the wheel that is already Sketch Up. On the positive side there are some interesting attributes of this new modeling program, like sophisticated analysis of energy and carbon (although SU is already making these advances as well) and the easy ability to move your conceptual models from Vasari to Revit (again... SU is doing this as well). So why learn a new program when Sketch Up has made this process so easy for us? Ill let you decide that one....
