    1 out of 5 stars Contour lines a farce!   December 28, 2007
    Dirt Digger 1948 (Pickerington, OH)
    2 out of 2 found this review helpful

    The program does not allow the individual contour lines to be adjusted to match normal landforms! Most frustrating and disappointing!

    I bought 3D Home Architect Landscape Design Deluxe 6.0 at the half price book store, so I was a little leery about the purchase.
    I gave it the good-ole college try and the package failed after I invested some hours trying to fit my complicated ten acre landscape into the package!
    In the package/program it assumes you have the standard small building lot, so contour lines go all the way across the lot, not matter how you enter them. I have two ravines, each partially on my lot and they intersect! The stream has two "S" curves across my lot and it enters my lot twice and exits twice. Yes the contour lines have to follow the twisty stream with 26 foot high slopes on one/two sides of the stream!

    That catalog of trees does not include oaks nor walnuts! Not even the normal scrub tress you find in a natural forest, you know those in a "wooded lot".

    If you have a standard developers building lot with one simple slop that goes all the way across, you might be able to create a satisfying 3D landscape plan.
    Good Luck!
    Sam



    1 out of 5 stars Very Bad   September 1, 2007

    This is not user-friendly at all & provides very little help with starting up. I cannot quickly construct an image to even serve as a base for the design. I am going to try to return this item & try something else...I doubt they will let me return it though.


    1 out of 5 stars Awful software, even the latest version   September 10, 2006

    Terrible software, hard to use, useless. I asked for my money back the next day and they refused. I wish I had read the reviews here first!


    1 out of 5 stars 3D: difficult, dumb and disasterous   April 8, 2006

    What a colossal waste. Knowing what I know now, I wouldn't pay 5 cents for this program. Possibly the worst job of programming I've ever experienced. Graphics are a joke, tools are inexplicable and the help features are useless. Need I say more?


    1 out of 5 stars Horrific software   September 23, 2005

    This software is garbage. I installed it and tried to use this software and it is very simple. Very limited plants, no sprinkler design system. To call this software "Basic" is an insult to the world "Basic".
