The next one, labeled a Cloud Accelerator Extension, is being held in the beautiful Czech city of Prague from September 13-18, 2015. This is a great opportunity to kick-start your development using Autodesk's PaaS infrastructure. Members of the ADN […]

As promised yesterday, this post deals with modifying your CRX module to make it work with AutoCAD I/O. A quick reminder on what writing a CRX app means for .NET developers: we're still creating a .DLL (unlike ObjectARX developers, whose CRX modules have the .crx extension), but it can only reference AcDbMgd.dll and AcCoreMgd.dll (not […]

It's live! Our entry for the recent VR Hackathon in San Francisco has received a significant amount of spit and polish (OK, perhaps not the best mental image) over the last couple of weeks and is now ready for prime time (i.e. Beta testing ;-).

I wanted to post on a more in-depth topic, today, but I've been heads-down working on our project from the recent VR Hackathon, getting ready to push it live. We've made really good progress over the last few days, especially considering it's only a part-time project for Lars, Oleg and myself. We've implemented per-session support […]

The venue was great: it had plenty of space but also with a fair amount of natural light (very important […]

Basically allowing you to view […]

This evening I'm staying in San Jose, as tomorrow I'll be visiting the SVVR 2015 expo hall to do some research on the latest virtual reality technologies in advance of the coming weekend's VR Hackathon (following on from […]

The title of this post is probably a bit misleading: I'm not actually going to show how this works, today, but I do intend to plot a path for addressing this topic over the coming weeks. I was spurred on by a tweet I received a couple of hours ago: @keanw Dear kean, I've been […]

The countdown for Autodesk University 2015 starts with the Call for Proposals opening on April 22nd. It will remain open until May 26th.

Thanks for all the interactions, yesterday. April 1st is really one of my favourite days of the year: there's lightheartedness and creative energy everywhere you look. But all good things come to an end – even if the years seem to tick by increasingly quickly – so it's time for more serious matters. Today's post […]
