ArtiCAD-Pro and BathCAD Version 17 is now available to download from the ArtiCAD Members Area for users with a current Annual Support Plan in place.
This long-awaited enhancement includes a wealth of new features and graphics including ArtiCAD HD – a new, additional photo-realistic rendering option and a superb VR Walkthrough mode, which enables you to readily set camera positions, edit items in your design and flip back and forth to photo-realism. There are also huge improvements to the photorealism lighting and a new advanced texture editor to give you even greater ability to refine your sales presentations. ArtiCAD’s on-line manual has been updated to reflect the V17 enhancements and now includes video tutorials to help you master the latest version.

International News
ArtiCAD’s North American subsidiary, ArtiCAD NA Inc, has just relocated to new offices in Tennessee, following another year of exceptional growth in the US and Canada.
In Africa, ArtiCAD took over the business of its former distribution partners and opened a subsidiary, ArtiCAD Africa in April last year. Business in the region has doubled and, since the launch of a dedicated African website, sales enquiries have quadrupled.
Sales in Australia and New Zealand broke all records in 2010 as ArtiCAD’s distribution partners expanded their activities. Further substantial expansion into new international markets is scheduled over the next five years.
Export sales revenues contribute towards the massive programme of ongoing software development and are therefore highly beneficial to all existing UK users. | |
