Hi all ! I tried Solidworks 2009 with 1.2-rc1, and was really pleased to see that it really works now, and is useable for real modelling. There are still some annoying bugs, but nothing that prevents using it. That's a giant step ! I updated appdb, rating it silver, but it is still queued. Only vcrun2005 and msxml6 winetricks are required. Anyway, I have some questions : some add-ons ( part libraries, design analysis modules...) relies on .net30. It is a requirement for the installation on windows. But installing it with winetricks breaks everything... As most of the functions seems to work with wine without ms dotnet installation, I was wondering : does wine supposed to offer complete replacement of dotnet framework ?
