#LW4.0 Upgrade
>>NT has to remember that they aren't on the Amiga platform.
On the PC, They've got real competition in the field of 3D rendering.
It's not like the only other option is Imagine……..

That's for sure. Between 3DS (which has a very loyal following) and Truespace
(who is not sitting still on adding advanced features for its price(direct
deformation, real time render) competition is going to be a fierce battle.
Fortunately, 3DS is not expected to be finished porting to NT until Jan 96,
maybe later, and Truespace animation capabilities is lacking features like
envelope controls, bones and IK NewTek has a good nitch to fill.
I would like to see some direct competition aimed at 3DS. The new plug-in
framework is a start, an animation scripting language like 3DS would be good
and perspective matching tools like 3DS would also be a good fight against 3DS.
I would also like to see the ability to render flic and Avi as textures.
