Hi Guys,
the title says it all. Are there any plans of integrating Dynamo with Civil 3D? I can definitely see it being used for controlling subassemblies, featureline geometry, grading objects etc.
If I’m to be honest it’s a bit unfair, that all the great stuff is being developed for the Revit world, while the civil engineers among us are stuck with a sub-par experience from a bit less than a decade ago.
In my opinion, it’s difficult to vision Dynamo being implemented into Civil 3D from a programming standpoint. I definitely agree that the Subasembly Composer or the corridor property window leaves a bit to be desired and Dynamo can definitely fill that void. Autodesk has taken Dynamo and made it into its own separate software package called Dynamo Studio so I can potentially see some creative uses of that with their existing product lines. Also, there’s no mention that Dynamo Studio was solely built for Revit on their website.
I thought the push to go toward Infraworks was eventually for ‘Revit Civil’ but I may be wrong. Autodesk has never painted a clear picture of what’s to be done with it other than create a faux 3D model for presentation.
I can’t wait until the day I get track centerline data or pipe data from Civil 3D and then generate a 3D Revit model for the Architects!
you have it now with Civil 3D 2020.
