Can I use Railclone as a BIM tool??
« on: September 12, 2022, 05:37:51 AM »
Hi I am loving Railclone and its ability to create models exactly the way you would do it on site. My question is if I am using modules for everything like bricks and tiles and wall plaster can Railclone give me the information about how many tiles or bricks I need for a house fully created in 3dsMax? It will be a great help in avoiding BIM tools.

Although you are able to see object counts Using RailCone Stats, these are global counts of all the geometry created by each generator and there's isn't currently a way to extract the kinds of detailed information and costing  you'd expect from a BIM application.

I hope that helps, please let me know if you have further questions.

A segment counter and a Number of Segment calculator and operator would be a great help for someone like me who needs to give cost estimates for different rooms and exterior façade to clients before the design gets finalized.
