Joe – We feel TSilver is a superior product on a number of fronts. First of all, the rendering times are MAGNITUDES! faster than SC3D. TSilver also includes an animation capabilities in the program. Some of the properties we offerthat are not in SC3D are True glass %#P refraction, IFF mapping which gives you the ability to MAP ANY IFF picture around any object or group of objects. TSilver is able to produce images in any and all color modes and resolution of the Amiga except Half-brite. We are just actually finishing up version 3 which will be available as a free upgrade to all current registered users. THis upgrade should be finished in 10 day or so. Version 3 offers further enhancements like: True Texture mapping Like DBW Render, multiple light sources (up to 32,000). Also any object can be a light source. A "Scan Line" converter mode to give results comperable to Videoscape, a new animation section which now allows users to perform multiple loops and other effects within the same animation. TSilver also allows much larger and more complicated objects than SC3D. We have also just released "Terrain" a low cost companion module to Turbo Silver which allow the creation of landscapes, like mountains, valleys, & even 'moving' water and waves. I must say however, that many users of TSilver who have switched from SC3D do prefer the SC3D editor interface. With programs like Interchange from Syndedis, you can still create objects in SC3D, and move them to TSilver easily. Also the next release of 3-Demon will have the current Turbo Silver format included. Perhaps the most important feature we at Impulse offer is FREE SUPPORT! If you have a problem with any of our products, we give you an 800 number to call for support. Also all of our upgrades are either no cost, or very low cost. And we are dedicated to continually improving the program. If you have any other question please give us a call.
