After several attempts, it appears that FormZ Free is the closest to SketchUp Make in terms of organisation!

An interface a little less "fluid" but we manage much better than Shape's interface, which is a little bit of a puzzle! :-P

And there are some nice little ones, staircases, automatic roofs etc... as well as a practical volume "unfurler"!
A hint of Nurbs...

A "all-in-one" performance for not a dime! ;)

Allows import SKP, dwg, etc... and export STL and DAE (so re-loadable directly in SketchUp).

If you have better do not hesitate!

As a bonus, it's also operates as a Solid Modeler-- so that means it has great filleting and 3D prints.

I agree, it is a good program. I have it but haven't used it in years. Need to rethink that now that SU is off to the cloud soon.

<< so that means it has great filleting

Not in the "Free" version ! ;)
So some boolean operations (permited) for make it!

Hi Guys and specially Pilou,

What about Pcon-Planner ! A great free software close to Sketchup for architecture and design and even has an internal rendering engine.

http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=4446.229

Sure but its ergonomy for modeling is not directly friendly!
else
One button render very cool
Its function to import directly objects from producers very cool!
dwg / skp in every way very cool!

2 years after a new "machine" (AlphaGo Zero) put a 100 to 0 against AlphaGo!

I leave you to imagine what it would be like against a poor human being! :)

And this having formed itself, just with the rules of the game!

Article: https://deepmind.com/blog/alphago-zero-learning-scratch/

And poignant video (Vo) of man's first fight against the "old AlphaGo".



I am waiting when "Deep learning" will be used for 3D creation! ;)

Cool, thanks for sharing, Pilou. I love keeping track of AI developments.

I thought you were also partly a Blender guy. :)

---

I prefere lost time in playing Go Game than lost time fighting against Blender! :)

---

Thanks for sharing the go video, Frenchy. Fascinating.

Frenchy,

You should create a YouTube channel where you keep folks updated on the latest 3D tools available. I suspect you could get quite a following!

---

Guys and Ladies must go on this thread! :)
