[Radiance-general] Radout

[Hind Dirani]

Thomas, 

I haven’t used all these programs before, what is the best & easier method
(program) to build a 3D model that can be use in Daysin.

Thanks a lot Thomas,
 
Hind

You can find links and information on this page:

http://www.bozzograo.net/radiancewiki/doku.php?id=converting_models_from_aut
ocad_to_radiance

However, all the AutoCAD scripts are rather out of date now and will
probably not work with newer versions of AutoCAD. Radiance has its own
support for OBJ files (via obj2rad or obj2mesh) so if you can convert
your CAD geometry to obj that might be a way for you.

You also can use SketchUp to load DWG files. If you don't have the Pro
version of SU you need to download a separately available plugin for
DWG/DXF support. Then you can use my own script to export to Radiance
format or directly to Daysim:

And finally, if you have Rhino available there is a new tool for Rhino
that provides (among others) Daysim support:
