Data Member Posts: 487 From:Omicron Theta science colony Registered: May 2001 | posted 09-10-2001 12:23 PM This may be of interest to anybody who wishes to create 3D models. The following is a rundown of the software 3D Canvas 4: --------------------------------------------- A 'lite' little brother of 3D Canvas Pro, 3D Canvas is free to download and keep, and although it's featureset is limited in some areas, it is nevertheless a powerful and worthwhile download. The application enables you to create complex models can by editing primitives, or through the secondary nurbs patch modelling screen, which - although it's harder to master at first - offers much greater freedom. 3D Canvas' real advantage is that you can import and export models in DirectX, 3DS, Autocad, and VRML formats. The pro version even works with motion capture, which means you can really take advantage of object libraries on the Web, thne simply edit and animate with 3D Canvas. Once you have a model, animation is set up with stepped keyframes, 3D Canvas filling in the gaps. You can view these in real-time, or output to AVI format, although there is no support for anti-aliasing and no rendering engine in the limited version. After you've downloaded the software, you can also check out a series of clear and consise tutorials, available as a seperate download package on the developer's site. --------------------------------------------- If it is of interest to anyone, it can be downloaded for free here: http://dl.winsite.com/bin/downlmid?150/500000029168/win95/graphics/3DCanvas.zip ------------------ You could say, I have a magnetic personality [This message has been edited by Data (edited 09-10-2001).] IP: Logged

A) Make toruses thinner B) Move objects on the plane C) Resize objects thanx if anyone can help me! From what I have seen so far: Q(A)....there are a range of tools on the left hand side of the screen for this but I have not tried all of them as yet. Q(B)....You can move objects by 'grabbing' with the mouse pointer hold down the left mouse button Q(C)....Again, resizing is done by use of the tools. I am not sure which one specifically though. Although The answers are not perfect, I hope that they help. If I find out anything else wiredGIRL, I will let you know. ------------------ You could say, I have a magnetic personality IP: Logged
