CAD software
What was the best CAD program for the Amiga and where could I source it if it's not already on FTP? Any that are screenmode agnostic or are RTG happy would be preferred by me.

I have used:
Aegis Draw (from the 80s) Runs on a half meg amiga, has layers, multiple colours, hatching. Most of the functions are activate by the function keys IntroCAD (from 80s)(Origionally mCAD on fish disks) Supports up to 16 colours (I guess these are layers), Has AREXX support last version and a scripting language, was the cheapest one. AegisCAD is better than IntroCAD. I still have to try XCAD and the Germans released MaxxonCAD DynaCADD on Amiga and ST, I believe there is a demo on aminet.net. I don't know what AutoCAD (try old versions on winworldpc.com) runs like under PCTask Hope that helps, all the above mentioned are 2D CAD Last edited by redblade; 25 April 2021 at 00:21. |

I've heard good things about XCAD.

Thanks for the suggestions. I checked Aminet and the only match for DynaCADD is an image created with it, not a demo. I did end up finding multiple versions of it elsewhere, along with multiple versions (and editions?) of XCAD. I couldn't find AegisCAD or MaxonCAD though.

Wikipedia states IntelliCAD was released for the Amiga, although I've never seen it.

Was there ever an English language version of MaxonCAD?
