Dear all!! - if you're looking for a good computer to run Inventor, you may then be interested to know that I have now developed and released the worlds most comprehensive FREE benchmarking test for Autodesk Inventor with a global online leaderboard. See the announcement video here ruclips.net/video/Xck3lvuMRjM/видео.html and check out the leaderboard here invmark.cadac.com/#/ - all designed by me, Neil Cross TFI.
was really swithering on turning this off untill i got to 00.33 haha - and was compelled to keep going. cheers man defo learned a few things :) keep putting them out too - so much better than all muhricah ones!
Brilliant! I couldn't agree more with the points you made: animations, renders, the lot. I laughed as much as I learned: comedy gold.Thanks for the video.
Nice one Neil!! good to watch something in hands on terms!! 2017 is a tad different again, but got the basic drift, and a good chuckle, looking at Showcase now
I agree, I have 2014 and its almost identical. The worst thing about using built in rendering program in Inventor is that it does not preview correctly what the rendering will look. Materials, f stop, etc. This 2016 shows it has not improved much since 2014 and clumsy, not user friendly.
Hi, as always great videos! - In Inventor 2016 we lost the ability to render with outlines, they added the visual style "technical illustration" which looks similar but not as good, but even at this lesser attractive visual appearance, I would use it, but it useless as it does not render the border lines like 2015 did, has this been fixed in 2017 - its proving to be a huge problem for me as hundreds of files got converted before finding this issue and now won't open in 2015 :(
Hi man, excellent videos you have, really nice work, keep up good work. I have a question for you, which will be this: Is there a solution to the problem of transfering assemblies which have standard parts (Parts from library, such as bearings, bolts, nuts...) from earlier versions of inventor to the new ones without a problems such as that Inventor could not find those parts in his library and simillar things. For example, i have an assembly that has bolted connections, bearings and belts from library, and this assembly is made in Inventor 2016, but i need to transfer it to the newest version of Inventor without problems, i mean i can delete those parts and then put them again in Inventor 2017, but is there any shortcut that i can use. Thanks in advance man. Wish you all the best, and keep up good work.
I've now got Cinema 4D. OBJ files are the only files that seem to export from Inventor for use in C4D. Is there a better file type for C4D or would you just recommend Showcase as you keep saying in quite a few of your videos?
Hello I am using inventor 2020 and I am trying to animate a nut turning in to a thread. I have tried to use the animate components feature and was able to do most of the rendering but i am having trouble with the rotation and the revolution. Any advice? Thank you !
Hi,. just awesome..... Thank you for taking the time on this video,. I appreciate that it verify my suspicion that the program is not the right tool for these tasks,. and hope you did not became completely deranged in fustration, "as I clearly ware becomming" I will follow your recommendation and spending time on your videos on showcase,. sorry for my lack in English ;)
Hi Neil. Any chance you have time to do an up to date video on Inventor Studio please? Or maybe what the best options are in the Product and Manufacturing collection after the demise of Showcase to do rendering. Thank you kindly!
Hi! I want to animate my project wich is cosisted of two chains(same) . I want to make two videos. My problem is that I want only one chain to move each time and when I click to animate components for the 1st chain, this goes to the second chain too. Can you help me?
I have a great idea! I like your tutorial. Very effective. Russian users don't know English, so they don't watch your great video. If you'll do the same tutorial with comment in Russian, it'll be great! I'm certificate Inventor 2013 Professional. I worked in Autodesk reseller Omntech in Israel and I know that it's very important good Tutorial.
Thank you for the videos! Just a question. Since technology is going the way of the point cloud, Can you do a video of modeling within point clouds in inventor? Thanks! We have been modeling within point clouds for quite a while now but there has to be some easier ways/tricks to get it done faster.
Hi TFI CAD Tips, great videos . when I run animation it's work good but When I used render animation that not's fade parts ? that was strange...Help me please. Thanks
I need to learn how to use studio to render out my animations. I just spent all afternoon fiddling with the constraints on my Newton's Cradle so it looks more real... It's such a pain :(
+Ruben Serrano I don't mean to be rude to them as I don't know them, but I couldn't watch sit through one of their silent videos... I don't know how something can be called a tutorial if there's no audio! But anyway the files used in this video are the Autodesk sample files which you can download from knowledge.autodesk.com/support/inventor-products/downloads/caas/downloads/content/inventor-sample-files.html they're free for anyone to use, you get a suspension assembly in there too which is good for practicing on.
Ah ok, gotcha. Was just wondering the similarities. Hey I was wondering if you could do a tutorial on wiring and harness. I know its a pain but I rather learn it from a champ like you.
+Ruben Serrano Naww you sweet talker! Yea that's on the to-do list, I haven't used that module in about 10 years though so I need to do some serious refreshing on it and whatever is new, but it's on the list!
Maybe you could do a video about animations in showcase. and other topic that i would like to see is dynamic simulation in inventor. Keep up the good work :)
destroyer939 Soooo you want a solid ground plane? One that you can see? If so, you can't... the ground plane is invisible and exists purely for the casting of shadows. The only way to show something as a surface is to model a ground object, a big extruded square for example. Or if you're using Inventor 2016 you can use the IBL lighting environments which have photo backgrounds with a pictoral floor i.e. the old warehouse!
Yeah...That issue with the materials ! I wonder if they sorted that stupid retarded issue with animation Fade ??? F off Autodesk, still waiting for updates !

Any chance you can do an updated video for studio 2019 since we no longer have showcase? or is it still pants?
Brilliant! I couldn't agree more with the points you made: animations, renders, the lot. I laughed as much as I learned: comedy gold.Thanks for the video.
Nice one Neil!! good to watch something in hands on terms!! 2017 is a tad different again, but got the basic drift, and a good chuckle, looking at Showcase now
You are amazing. Made my day!!! I'm stuck wit this program :( Are there any cool free rendering programs you know of?
I agree, I have 2014 and its almost identical. The worst thing about using built in rendering program in Inventor is that it does not preview correctly what the rendering will look. Materials, f stop, etc. This 2016 shows it has not improved much since 2014 and clumsy, not user friendly.
Great Video! Can you please make a more detailed tutorial on how to use the animation in Inventor studio?

Are you Bill Bailey by any chance ? hahah phenomenal tutorial, local lights

Hello, I want to animate a piece in inventor studio but it only lets me cheer up to 30 seconds. What is that and how can I fix it? help me pls
Great video mate. Really helped. Keep on the good work

Thank you, I love to learn from you
Hey bro in inventor is it possible to use two lights settings and incorporate those settings into render studio?
Is it possible to import models with animation into inventor pro? I need it to calculate actuator sizes.
how can I run the Camera on a spline around the Part or assembly and make an animation?
Hi TFI CAD Tips, great videos . when I run animation it's work good but When I used render animation that not's fade parts ? that was strange...Help me please. Thanks
There's possibility to have one of the assemblies?
Thank's
great tut man. Thx.
I need to learn how to use studio to render out my animations. I just spent all afternoon fiddling with the constraints on my Newton's Cradle so it looks more real... It's such a pain :(
Hi Neil do you know if anyone is using inventor on large format Microsoft surface hub or surface studio ?
I feel like I seen a lot of those similar files in the beginning. Were you watching 3D Parametric Solid Model Drawing tutorial videos?

+TFI CAD Tips That's good. Can't wait for the future videos.
Thanks for the entertainment!
Excellent!
hi There great video, can you maby show how you added the bmw m logo?
Maybe you could do a video about animations in showcase. and other topic that i would like to see is dynamic simulation in inventor.
Keep up the good work :)
its 2019 and showcase is no longer available
"Oooh, ye've went chrome now, have ye. That's convenient." :-D
I come to learn but I end up laughing half the time.
Hey Great video !, im wondering if you know how to change the ground plane so it looks as if the component is resting on a surface?
destroyer939 Soooo you want a solid ground plane? One that you can see? If so, you can't... the ground plane is invisible and exists purely for the casting of shadows. The only way to show something as a surface is to model a ground object, a big extruded square for example.

Make Video on Dynamic Simulation Please.
We lost showcase..... :'(
I didn't even get a chance to download it...
+Lightning Fast Yea I know bummer. I just did a RIP showcase video talking about it
Nice grey bits in your old beard
HA HA HA Geordie, wy i man, alll rittttte pet.
Inventor is not a render strong program, its for engineering prototypes. If you want rendering, use photoshop. Or maya, cinema 4d. 3ds max
dont click that fast...inventor will colapse :D
Studio is designed to make you want to move over to 3ds max $ for Autodesk
Yeah...That issue with the materials ! I wonder if they sorted that stupid retarded issue with animation Fade ??? F off Autodesk, still waiting for updates !
