Ok, I've read your negative dribble long enough. You really do not have a clue do you? Don't answer please. All I can say about LW vs. 3DS is that you get what you pay for. Why do you think companies like Sony pictures, Metrolight studios, etc etc etc. use 3DS and not LW. Because it is simply a better, more mature product, that has a very committed development team behind it. I've _used_ LW (read past tense). I use and will continue to use 3DS for my professional work. LW simply cannot compete with 3DS on really _any_ level. Maybe you should go over to the Real 3D forum at least there your lofty assumptions of LW may be correct. Well, I'll drop you a note in October and reaffirm that everyone else on this forum was right. Oh, and go ahead buy LW – it only means less competition for all the folks using 3DS. Oh, just one more thing. I can guarantee you, that you are not so proficient at 3DS as you claim, if you were you would not be so misguided as to really believe that LW is superior. I do agree that LW has its merits but you are way off course, as you will see. DM
