But to reach an intentional design requires a lot of behind-the-scenes work that the end customer doesn’t see the process of designing products and the methodology controlling that process. The former defines the various steps and phases of solving a real-world problem by innovating solutions, while the latter specifies the way in which a team undertakes that process. Most design teams aim to produce “intentional products” - products that solve a particular problem for a particular target market in an intentional way. To be honest, I wish I could have just stayed using F360 but it's just not worth it.Īnd even if they sorted out this mess (which they won't) I probably still wouldn't use their software any more.īecause in 12 months time I would have to go through it all over again.When you start designing a product, what are your design process and design methodology? How do you know where to start? Image via ITERATE. I used FBX as I can import them into Blender and then export them to other formats if I need to. Just remember to export all your models from F360 so you can import them into I wasn't doing anything tricky with F360 that I can't do with FreeCAD. They eventually sent me to this forum for helpĪnd that just got me sent back to where I started. To explain to them that I already had a personal licence and just wanted to renew it.įor some reason that was beyond them. Their horrendous help desk is absolutely useless. Solidworks is looking attractive again though, especially as they consider more personal-use-friendly licensing.Īnd as much as it sucks, I'm kind of glad that it isn't just me having these issues. Now I'm fully locked out, and fully fed up. For those of us who've used it from the beginning, we were also willing alpha-testers. The free, unlimited use, license is what got so many people using Fusion 360. When Autodesk started locking down parts of the free license, I wasn't happy. If I were also a for profit business I'd want to pay for an appropriate license. I get that Autodesk is a for profit business. I've been fighting licensing issues for five days now and I'm fed up. Try as I might, Autodesk thinks I should have an educational license, and won't allow me to renew a personal license. Last week I went to go give a new Fusion 360 user a primer on how to use it, and instead showed that new Fusion 360 user how solidly locked out of Fusion 360 I was.
I put up with it, even tried to give back where I could since the software was free and had promise. I've spent years dealing with unstable, constantly changing versions of Fusion 360.
