    Default ACA/AMEP Content suppliers

    Has anyone pondered the idea of possibly starting a forum where you can post websites that have blocks, myparts, or families (For the Reviteers amongst us)? It seems we find one about once or twice a week but, it takes a lot of searching. Thomasnet is a great site for finding them but, what better way that to ask our fellow AUGI residents for places they've found that support ou program?

    Any ideas?? Or should we just start adding on to this thread??
    Give a man AutoCad, and he'll draw you a floor plan.
    Give a man Revit and he'll build you a house.
    Give Cadmama a couple of drinks and she'll have everyone singing Rockytop!

    A forum isn't necessary. Just use a sticky thread.

    Sounds like a good idea to me, how about starting a thread over in the ACA/AMEP Styles Library forum where you can post links? May be better to keep Revit seperate, I seem to recall a similar thread over on the Revit Forums actually.

    Yeah but the make sticky thread button seems to be missing.

    With my eyes, I'm barely able to thread a needle with regular thread.. Does sticky thread help??

    One time, I hooked up my webcam and zoomed in so I could actually see what I was doing.. Sad, so sad..

    OK, shall we stickify it in here or over in the styles forum??

    Hi All,

    I think Paul has a great idea. If you know of a manufacturer or supplier who has ACA/AMEP content available for download (free) post a link here.

    Some see the glass as half full, others as half empty. As an engineer I see the glass as twice as big as it needs to be. ~Unknown~

    How about I start it off with Victaulic Piping.. They have a complete menu program that actually works inside of Autocad MEP 2009!

    http://www.victaulic.com/content/cadandsoftware.htm

    Gotta do a one time registration but, it's harmless.

    Once you get to the download page, just go to the bottom of each category and download the whole category instead of individual sections.. Well, unless you like picking through them one at a time.. Make sure you get the one that says VIC 3D Piping as well.

    Does this add a library of fittings and pipe and draw just as a regular pipe with a Victaulic routing preference?
