Autodesk Design Review 2008 Now Available

After hours of tireless effort working on the Nile project, Autodesk Design Review 2008 is now available for download from the Autodesk web site.

There are optional plug-ins that can be downloaded as well. These include Batch Printing, JT Import, and DGN Import. These are also available from the Autodesk web site:

If you wish to download these installers once and then deploy them across your company, you can run the silent installers in succession with a BAT file or similar process that does:

1. start /wait SetupDesignReview.exe /s /v/qn
2. start /wait BatchPrint_DesignReview2008.exe /s /v/qn
3. start /wait JTImporter_DesignReview2008.exe /s /v/qn
4. start /wait DGNImporter_DesignReview2008.exe /s /v/qn

So not only should you come and get them, you should get them all and then spread them across your organization. We have been looking forward to this day. It's been a long time and a long way to go.

Are you sure? I filled the form and then got a link to download ADR 2007.

Taken from the linked website:

"Autodesk Design Review 2008 will be available for free* download in early April. Until then, you can download Autodesk Design Review 2007 for free*."

Plus when I download it, it is still DR2007...Will the website be updated soon, or should we wait until April???

Scott,
Is the website not yet updated? It still refers to the 2007 version on the download page.

"Autodesk Design Review 2007 Install - English
To install Autodesk® Design Review 2007 software, simply:
1. Download and save the setup file to your computer."

Nice move!
