Is there any way to achieve a fish-eye-lens distortion in 3DS. I tried a high FOV, but I guess because it is scanline, planes were not wacked out like I wanted. Do I have to use raytracers for this effect? —————–Will

You could write an IXP to do this, or you could use the Script Extensions (from Schreiber Inst.) to write one in BASIC. – G

Good Idea, I'll see if it works! ————-Will
