Title: Any CATIA V5 users out there?
Post by: Ripsnort on August 07, 2002, 04:06:11 PM

I just have one thing to say about this latest class I'm in.... YUCK!
Knowledgeware.  Powerful tool. Big. Intimidating. But its boring.  I'm surrounded by code geeks too, which is making the class worst.

I used CATIA around 1998-99 but I've forgotten everything.  :)
Mostly I was just converting stuff back and forth from UG and AutoCAD.

lol..hi rip,
i tried it..i hate it.
as an V4 user, V5 is a horror. everything is new.
think a newbee can it easier learn than a
V4 veteran.
think i must practise more with  it to be preperad
for day X in our company

Hi Habicht!
Yes, in V5, you have to take a totally different approach to building your models, but it IS for the best.  Its like learning a WHOLE NEW CADD system!

We're still in the Early Adopter stage, we're supporting a small number of workstations at this time, but its only a matter of time before we go completely to V5, as Dassault no longer supports V4 (or rather, they're phasing out V4)

Good to hear from you again!  See you in 2005!
