You're starting out with 3D modeling in Blender and are encountering a challenge with STEP files. It's totally normal for new users to face this issue. There are several ways to convert STEP files into formats that Blender can understand, such as OBJ or FBX. You might want to explore plugins like "STEP to OBJ" or "Blender's built-in STEP import" features. If you need more tailored advice, let me know!
It’s not necessary to rely on Autodesk Inventor; it’s available for students at no cost. You can import files in CAD format such as DWG and STL into Blender.
You don’t sign up for an Autodesk account. Instead, you’re a student, so tell them your school or any institution asks—like “student professor.” When prompted, mention your school or the name of the program they ask for, such as the link to Autodesk’s free software. The site offers a three-year key, but it changes each year, so next year you’ll need a new one. It’s just a simple process, no complicated steps.
The download will be quite slow at 0.2MBPS. It should take a while depending on the size of the file.
It's a bit unclear how the connection works, but it indicates a lengthy installation process. The file size is likely between 3 to 7 gigabytes. It probably takes a few days to complete. You should expect around 0.2 megabits per second or 0.2 MBPS. Just run it overnight, and it should finish in a reasonable time since it downloads and installs each part sequentially.
It's just AT&T, the only provider I use. They charge around $120 a month for their cheapest plan, and I'm getting about 0.2 Mbps. That's way below what I was promised—usually I expect around 3 Mbps.
I was previously on 1.6mbps, now it's 20mbps (about 2MBps), and it really improved overnight.
