![]() I really realty want to like these free tools and I try them every year or so at least once to see the development progress. ![]() You don't want to spend even more time to first debug your environment and then later deal with the bugs of the software itself. ![]() And even they are buggy the deeper you dive into. They are for sure suitable to construct very simple forms and shapes, maybe simple stuff for additive manufacturing at home but If you built complex parts, full machines, large test rigs with thousands of different parts and assembly groups, you need the full capacities of these proprietary suits. They do work but they absolutely don't come close to the features of a full CAD suite. I do all my work on Linux, private stuff, server stuff, as an employee and self employed, but there is unfortunately no real alternative for a real full featured, proprietary CAD suites. I worked a lot with students during my time as a research associate at university.ģ) I am a full time Linux user, maybe even enthusiast and programmer. Often they want you to follow a specific path while solving a task, to learn a specific workflow with specific features of the software to get to know all the peaks and perks. I use solidworks BTW.Ģ) If you learn one special programm like Autocad I would highly recommend you sticking to that software for doing your homework and following courses at school. ![]() Even if you get it to run somehow, with 100 special settings adjusted and you don't care for thousand visual glitches, the next update will come and will break things. As a mechanical engineer working for 10 years with CAD programms since university and 20 years with linux I can tell you two (3?) things:ġ) there is no appropriate way to run these heavy, resource hungry proprietary tools under Linux with full gpu support with wine or whatever. ![]()
