>Must run on a 486 and prefer cost effective (price in 3 digits). 3D studio is not an option here (at least for the 3 Digit part.) I suggest trueSpace 2.0 from Caligari corporation. Its a windows based win32 application with perspective modeling environment. It includes boolean functions from primitives and sweep, lathe and beveling functions for 2D polyline shapes. (Killer modeler) It will accept 3DS, DXF and many other formats as input. It will output flc's and avi's as well as targa sequencing. Has integral raytracing and avi and flc mapping capabilities. Will also do field rendering, depth of focus, motion blur, and animated deformation) Best of all list is $795.00 (Street price: around $500.00) I highly recommend it.
