Mark!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will try to contain my excitement about X3. It
appears that you're trying to go Pixar's ShowPlace one better. The ergonomics
on X2 are so well thought out and certainly one of its great strengths. Will
you be able to get the same ease of human interface with X3? Also, and this is
a big one, will X3 be for both platforms? Although Pixar's offering Glimpse for
Windows, they don't seem to have any plans for offering ShowPlace for anything
other than Mac. It sounds like X3 could fill a waiting market. I'm assuming
that the texture mapping is similar to the RenderMan 'Looks' and is not
ray-tracing.
There! See what a good boy I was…I didn't ask about delivery dates (BUT I
WANT TO)…Rob
P.S. may I have your permission to share your message with the heavy-hitters
over on the Adobe PS forum? There are many DI pros over there and this would be
a welcome announcement.
