Hey JoshPlumSE!
Remember these types of screens?
I do. We used that DOS version in school, circa 1994. I remember it being pretty hard to figure out, but of course that was the first time I ever used a program like that.
 
Notably some features that I wish I had using Risa2d are: Connection Linking to risa connection(maybe foundation too not sure), Seismic Parameters for vertical EQ load combinations, Member seismic design parameters.

with Sap maintenance at 1000$/yr I'm leaning toward Risa3d. Risa is more capable for low to midrise construction (wood, masonry, etc.)

Im curious about getting back into the RisaFloor workflow because its been almost 8 years since I've tried it I am hopeful that it works better now.
