3D landscape design for apple mac

N NorteigaOGR Forum Member

Hello, need recommendations for a specific need. I've searched the history and can't find an answer. I need recommendations for best software or app for Apple Macs to do 3D landscape and structure design for an o-gauge layout. I have track design done. I specifically need to design out landscape (hills, rivers, trees, buildings, etc) and it must be in 3D. I can find 3D track design or 2D landscape design but not 3D landscape design specifically and only for the Mac. Can anyone point me to a solution? Thanks for any help.

Guess it really depends on how tailored a software package you want.  If you're okay with general 3D, Google Sketchup works on the Mac.  If you want one made just for layout landscaping, I don't know of any.  If you find a Windows version of software, you can try running it with PlayOnMac to see if the 3D works.  I ran SCARM using it, but SCARM's 3D part didn't work last I used it, an upgrade to either package could have fixed that issue.
