#S3D info
6 messages in this thread
Hi Galen, thanks for asking.
Simply 3D is a full-featured 3D rendering/animation product designed to offer a
smooth transition from 2D to 3D. Renderize Live EZ, the backbone of Simply 3D,
allows you to load and extrude 2D vector drawings from the AI file format to
turn them into 3D objects. These objects can be positioned in 3D space along
with a camera and light sources, and rendered with a wide variety of color,
textures, lighting, shadowinf, lens, etc characteristics. Simply 3D alos
includes Visual Font, which extrudes and bevels Windows TrueType fonts to
create 3D objects. Simply 3D also includes a library of seamless textures and
3D objects, ready to load and render. Finally, Simply 3D is compatible with
Simply Scenes, a new library of datasets that are organized as completed
"load-and-render" scenes. The objects, materials, iamges, etc that make up a
scene can be used together or individually to create your own scenes.
Simply 3D lists for $59. You can call us at 800 669-7318 to learn more about
it and to find out which software chains carry it.
Hope this info helps.

I was wondering if you knew what the bulk of Rederize Live is written in…
(I'm guessing optimized 'C' and some assembly?). The reason I ask is because
the rendering seems to run at lightning speed compared to other rendering
packages that I have used.
Thanks,
Ryan
Ryan:
Yes, Renderize is written in C.

Thanks for the info. It sounds like a great product for someone wanting to get
into 3D ! Oh yeah the price also sounds great ! Do you know of any Canadian
distributers of S3D or if I would have to get it via mail from you ?
Thanks again for the quick response.

Hi Galen:
Give our sales staff a call, they can help you. I don't know if our 800
numbers work in Canada, but try them: (800) 669-7318 or (800) 881-4108. If
that doesn't work, our normal number is (818) 883-7900.

Galen: I an a novice at using 3D programs, and I'm having a blast using S3D.
It's a very
powerful program for the price, and I haven't even begun to know all that it
will do…
You can purchase it from Egghead, CompUSA, or Tiger Software, those 3 for
sure… mail order, if you don't just get it straight from Visual…
