Yes, it takes a few moments until one has discovered the way VLM "thinks".
but AFAIK it offers nearly all possibilities for performing effects and all
the other nice stuff. This is what it separates from most other DLN systems
on whatever platform.
But for the full packed capabilities You should buy the two disks with extra
effect modules.

AFAIK Real3D comes from anywhere in Scandinavia, not Germany. But my
experiences
with Real3D are not so good because of its "complicatiness". I don't work with
anymore because I have Lightwave 🙂

Yes, it took a while after the first appearance of the VLM to reach a full
functionality. The first complete version was V2.1 of Movieshop, released in
January. Now I'm working with 2.5.
It should be fun to go back to MS 2.5 with a fresh outlook :^) The wedding will
be for free anyway, all I gotta do is edit it. Should be Cake…
AFAIDiscovered, I tend to state that Version 2.6 (recent) seems to be buggy.
I don't know the difference of 2.5 and 2.6 but it always makes corrupted
pictures
while rendering fades and dissolves.
In the last two weeks I had two clients who reproted problems after updating
to 2.6. I installed 2.5 on their systems and all worked well.
I didn't call Macrosystems already to ask about it, but don't be surprised
after
updating :-/
…waiting for my Draco…
