The latest OS X installer doesn't seem to work - I just a black panel with no options. Anyone else using this on C4D?
Viktor, was just curious as to whether you are thinking about the possibility of the Library supporting UVs for its stored shapes.
I guess I'm trying to get my head around how the Library can be leveraged e.g. in a game asset production workflow, where the alternative might be creating an ordinary on-disk library of pre-built meshes that are already UV unwrapped and then with the possibility

Firstly, thanks so much for taking the time to port your architecturally focused suite in to C4D. We are sketchup / C4D architectural visualisers so its always great to see more related tools out there. I've watched some of the tutorials for LWCAD Lite and had a go with the final beta yesterday.
Some really good stuff in there but I have a few requests - many of which im sure are coming as I
Здравствуйте. Будет ли версия LwCad для Cinema 4d под macOS?
Just downloaded trai. and I am having some issues.
I am using winows 10 3d max 2016.
The UCS auto snapping is not working. I followed your tutorial on making wall and a second floor then a roof.
The roof did not snap to the second floor. UCS would not update.
Then I tried just using the primitive boxes and adding more boxes on top. Again UCS would not update.
I have UCS set t
Perhaps someone can help me with the pipe tool. I am not new to LWCAD, but never really used the pipe tool before.
I cannot get the pipe tool to draw around corners?
Example, take a cube, start drawing on one plane or face then click on the next plane or face, in this case 90 degrees to the original. I will not turn. Always stays on the original plane. Tried resetting the tool, reinstalling
I used to use this tool up to I believe version 5.1, but it has disappeared in the 5.2 update. I had assumed it had been incorporated into another tool as others have been, but I can't find out where or how it works now.
The on-line help menu makes no mention of it and the 5.2 new features video on YouTube stops short of addressing it. I did discover that the Line Clone Tool has options for a
The current OpenGL button are hard to see on a grey backdrop and hi-res display. I suggest giving us the ability to change the text size (as well as the button size) and also pick colours we like, rather than just use red and green (neither of which works that well on a mid-grey canvas).
Also, when you click the '2D' OGL button it disappears, rather than change colour and remains as a toggle

Mac OS Sierra - Cinema 4D R18 - LWCAD Plug-In Error Message while starting Cinema 4D. I can no longer use Cinema 4D because it will not load completely after LWCAD error message appears.
How do I uninstall LWCAD so that Cinema 4D no longer crashes at statrtup?
I've noticed that when using the Shingle tool on roofs with concave slopes, like screengrab, the slope component of a roof does not show; it only works on convex roofs.
Would it be possible to allow the slope component to also work on concave slope joins please? Or have I missed something?
In my case, Classical Roman buildings would frequently have arcade roofs like this, and would have
Creating a road center-line is fairly simple but could be improved. (way better than native tools) That got me thinking about the more general case of lines that are tangent to circular arcs. The type of curve I am talking about is a series of straight segments and arc segments that always have the characteristic of being tangent and the arc segments are circular arcs.
I have tried creat
I just recently got LWCAD but it seems I've broken it. All of the curves are displaying as straight lines. See the attached screenshots for the error:

I've created a fairly simple building from a floor plan and added some windows to it. But, the windows I created last week only show up as holes in the walls in LW. The ones I created yesterday show up in Modeler and LW though. I don't think I created them as instances last week, but maybe did? Is there anyway to tell? A simple way to convert them to polys if I did
No way to test it. Mac version even doesn't start - "The plugin c4d_lwcad_5.dylib has carshed" etc.

It would be awesome if LWCAD could somehow deal with .stp curves. Right now, to use CAD data in Lightwave it has to be converted to mesh and often we get errors in smoothing, flipping polys or geometry missing. Being able to use the nurbs curves would be a dream come true.
It would be great if LWCAD could feature a nice bend tool. The native lw bend gets bad results and is not easy to use.
Hello,
The "clone" panel in my lwcad 5.2 is empty. No commands. What is wrong?
In your website you say LWCAD is coming to all major 3D apps. Does that include Maya, or preferably in my case, Modo, at some point?
I am currently on LWCAD 4, but if I upgrade to LWCAD 5, will there be another purchase/upgrade to LWCAD for other host apps or is LWCAD 5 considered a "one license for all" ?
Hi
When you go to change the step height of any of the 4 stair tools in the numeric panel it won't work. The height adjustment line just disappears and the numeric value's won't change.
Steps
Create stairs using the line stair tool
Adjust the height of the stairs in the right viewport using the orange line
Now click n on the keyboard
Try adjusting the step height in the numeric pane
It was already the case with LWcad previous releases when snapping features:
LW cad actually sees hidden geometries (in active layer or background).
With V5 and following and the new selection system this problem becomes really unworkable around, eg:
ctrl click empty space on screen selects all geometry, even what is hidden; when working on an heavy layer/object this turns into a nightm
UVs are broken when using the offset tool on polygons.
It worked previously quite well in LWcad 4 with a nice linear interpolation, very usefull...
it needs a fix Asap !

It would be really nice if LWCad had dimensioning capabilities much like Solidworks or Inventor. Create a model and then dimension it and save out a DWG or even just a PDF and be able to print it on a big plotter/printer. Yeah that would be cool.
Viktor please go here: http://forums.newtek.com/showthread.php?152975-LWCad-5-2-snap-move-question to check out an issue with move snap in 5.2. Everything you need is in that link. I like the clone feature of the new move snap but it just won't move geometry as effectively as 4.51. Please consider some adjustments to the tool. Thanks.
When you use the move snap tool with cloning, you can't adjust the height of the clone.
Steps
Create a box with the box tool
Us the move snap tool
Press "n" on the keyboard to open the numeric panel
Turn on cloning
Clone your object going down from the top viewport
Now go over to the Right viewport
Try clicking on the handle to make your clones go upwards or step

How can I round all corners of a polygon? It is not shown in the video. In my case it seems only possible by using the Numeric field window?
It seems I am not able to use the mouse for more tools, like extrude length etc?

Downloaded the Lite version, but not sure what files/folders to install. There was nothing in the OSX folder...
I would like to see tools for LWCAD on Layout
