If ever they plan to release it, when do you think it shall be? (give your best guess)
Thanks, did not know that….
Dorothy, The only real prob. with Alpha's are that, looking for programs to run are a pain. Progs. are scarce at best, and usualy cost more (eg. MS Visual C++, Visual Reality 1.5, etc..) I owned one for months and the closest image editing app I got is a beta…
Will, As you might already know, Lightwave's got the ability to ray trace. You could shape an object like a magnifying glass and assign glass properties to it, and *presto* you got a fully working lens which enlarges anything behind it. So, in effect, you could built telescopes, lenses, glasses,…
