My brother-in-law who works for Intel read an article being circulated at Rio Rancho that stated that an NT version is being released. Any truth to this? -Mark Huppertz

Mark, >> NT version is being released… << I know I've seen your posts within the last month here, so I assume its been the 3DS/NT canceled thread which has caused confusion. Regardless… yes indeed, R5 will run on NT and I can safely say it will be absolutely fantastic. (no exaggeration. 🙂 John

When is it due to be released? Do you need any really good NT floggers to beta?

Hi Mark, I just jumped in to cover, you'll have to ask the YG team about the rest of it… John

Hi Mark, << Beta Testers for Autodesk Products?.. >> For 3DS… You would need to talk to the 3DS Product Manger. Your best bet would be to send in a letter, company history and list of qualifications to: Autodesk Inc. Attn: 3D Studio Product Manager 111 McInnis parkway San Rafael, CA 94903 In addition to Autodesk's 3DS beta team, Gary Yost has his own team. The following is a recent post from Gary on that subject… …. "since I haven't even BEGUN to put the r5 beta team together. To be a beta site for r5, you have to either: – have been a GREAT beta site for r2, 3 or 4 or – have impressed me with an UNBELIEVABLE demo reel that shows me that you stress the software to its limits, AND that you can write eloquently, concisely and with a sense of humor. There ya go, – G"
