Well, have done some looking around, and even got the brochures from my local reseller on 3DS, and you know what? I'm still confused. So, lets try it like this: I currently am familiar with Caligari's trueSpace (demo), and a registered owner/operator of Visual Software's Visual Reality product. I understand (pretty much) what I can do in those products. What can I do in 3DS that I can't with those? What are the 3DS features I'm currently missing? To the extent it matters, am creating 3D animations for inclusion in our SF magazine, though I hope to branch out into some more ambitious projects soon. I don't mind (much) spending 10 times as much on 3DS as on my current setup – IF I can figure out what the extra $$$ will be helping me do.
