will my CPU really cook itself if I try to use FreeCAD? I don't normally have any reservations about piracy but since I'm actually going to be making things with it I feel differently about CAD software, if possible I want my tools to belong to me indisputably, as a point of pride
>>1028694Any reason you think it'd cook itself?
>>1028695it has no hardware acceleration
>>1028696also this guy says so>>>/g/108816854
>>1028696as with all programs, it'll only cook itself if you disabled the safeties that prevent your cpu from running too hot
>>1028698then will it run like shit and crash all the time from the cpu choking it?
>>1028700Nope
>>1028694I used frerlecad in a shitty ass laptop from 15 yrars ago, It should work
It's 2026. We're beyond this. "It'll cook your cpu" is hyperbolic poetry. It will run, run slowly, or not run.
>>1028694I've never tried to use a CAD programme on a basic spec pc. I could imagine a version from the 2000s would work better with low specs. Depends on what you want to be using it for.
>>1028694I use a Linux laptop without a dedicated GPU and it runs just fine.
I just installed freecard 1.1.4. But I'm running into an issue where if I set the length of a side too high or too low, the other lines get moved to the wrong side of the line I'm trying to get distance from. Is there a way to fix this issue? Whenever I try by adding a fixed distance between two lines it says my sketch is over-contained or something.
>>1033500Apparantly, it's fixed in reeCAD 26.3 RC1
Will Blender include a CAD mode? All CAD software run like garbage on my laptop.
