any advice? cheers
depending on the version you have, I'd recommend getting the "Learning Autodesk "insert your version here" which is actually put out by autodesk.
I'm currently looking into them for further advancing myself beyond what i"ve learned online and from tutorials. Although I have the 8.5 unlimited, I would like to know if I can still use the 2008 books.
