I am with the rest of you. We will not run production work on SolidWorks 2007 until it is at SP 1.0.

RE: SolidWorks & COSMOS 2007 SP0 have been released
Its not even close. Speed of render, options of lighting, mapping, materials, caustics, GI, every aspect, pales in comparason.
If speed is your goal, stay with max and look into Vray, I always found it faster than brazil, although brazil has a certain look to it that I always liked, when it was done correctly. Brazil always seemed harder than vray to get the lighting just right.
Just having photoworks 2 turned on as an add-in slows large assemblies that have textures it seems. Never did solve that problem. We had to have our designers turn off photoworks till the very end of modeling before turning on in order to not bring the system to a crawl.

Save your money and get a top of the line CPU and video card, since those are usaully the limitations to most systems.

They released 2007 SP0 before fixing all of the problems with 2006... typical.
We will upgrade around SP2 or 3 when it is somewhat stable.

RE: SolidWorks & COSMOS 2007 SP0 have been released
Not as slick as how Alibre handles it but a step in the right direction. The only thing left to make it better in my opinion is to ask you upfront where you want to install Solidworks and add-ins and set the settings, then handle the rest of the installtion hands-off. As it is now....you still go through the same installation dialogues one at a time which happens to be a little different for each program (Swx, DwgEditor, eDrawing, PDM/works, etc.).

Not me. Only tried small parts and drawings.

RE: SolidWorks & COSMOS 2007 SP0 have been released
I did beta. It seems like they did a lot of stuff for premium, but I see the least amount of change in the core stuff. The only new feature is free form on 4 sided surfaces. The gui's a little different. I crashed it a bunch using scanto3d and routing. It seemed fairly stable in most core functionality, but who knows what oddities will pop up.
Overall, I have to say I'm not really that excited about this release, seeing as I don't have premium. Plus, most of the places in china that we work with, who use my SW files and not just my solids won't be on 07 for a while, so I can't use it anyway.

RE: SolidWorks & COSMOS 2007 SP0 have been released
My overall opinion is like "Tony the Tiger"... It's Grrrreat!!
Even if most of you don't use it for production which is the smart thing to do. You should still fully test it with copies of your files just to see how it works with your products. YOu might find a serious bug in SP0 and if it doesn't get fixed in SP1.. when you move to it, that bug will still be there.

RE: SolidWorks & COSMOS 2007 SP0 have been released
Scott...does the "Save Notification" flicker on your PC? Most times I don't see it cause when rotating, panning, and zooming.....it flickers and thus faintly shows. Sometimes I only know it's there because I caught a faint flicker out of the corner of my eye. Then I move the mouse pointer down to the lower right and it appears. I have a gaming nvidia card so I figured that was the problem but I was wondering if others see it with Cad video cards.

Idid recently get a 2 drawing files one from SW06 and one while working on it in SW07 as a SW07 file, corrupt on me. THe SW06 file would not save to the new SW07 version. SW is looking into the issue. Other then that I have not seen much else.

I haven't used SW07 yet because it's too young (SP0), but those on that forum are griping quite a bit about it. I will give SW credit for leaving that thread on their forum; not censoring those who slam their product.

Personally I feel that 2007 SP0 is the most stable SP0 release I've seen (2001 and up), better than SW2006 SP1.

RE: SolidWorks & COSMOS 2007 SP0 have been released
My VAR was semi-clueless.
My problem is there are a lot of Viewer users in my company that are still on Win2K, and their Department Head does not have the buget to upgrade his users to newer operating systems. If I could know for sure that the SW07 Viewer works on Win2K then upgrading is a non-issue for usu.

We had the same problem a while back with the SW viewer. We have some people in Windows 98. It was at that time we went to E drawings for our viewer and this seems to work just fine for us anyway.
