Default Re: Rendering Programs

I agree Bryce is a great program, I have purchased the Corel Version just prior to the franchise being sold to Daz. and when Daz got it and offered it for a low intro price of $59 I bought their Version too. THe funny thing is that the Daz Version still says 'Corel' when loading. LOL I guess they were too anxious to start selling their new baby and forgot to do some simple search and replace renaming.

Anyway, Like I said I'm planning on getting DarkBasic Professional for xmas. I took a look at their 3DCanvas program and it seems to have alot of functions similar to bryce,.. boleen oppersations, cloning (ctrl+D in bryce) and the biggest selling point is the list of import/export file formats. All in all very impressive. It looks like a better product than TrueSpace and that one sells for $399 or more depending on the time of the year. I'm a cash-strapped pauper myself (and a bit of a miser.) so I fully understand any hesitation on making purchases. But, I also find it hard to resist when I find a product that looks as good as the 3DCanvas and at a reasonable (compared to the compitition) price.

Right now I use Anim8or a freeware 3D modeling program to make any widgets or doodads. but it too falls a bit short in the file export options. Although it does export .3ds and .obj and most programs will import those.

Anyway, I'm not a salesperson, and only intended to share some info I found and thought might be of interest.

Cheers!
