Hello Nick, I've been reading all of the good things you and others at VisSoft are doing for your customers. I am now happy to include myself in that group with the purchase of S3D. I would like to express my amazement as to the speed and quality of the output available with S3D. I have used many CAD and Drawing packages over the years and this is one of the most user friendly packages around. I'm having a ball showing off the results to my co-workers and looking forward to the upgrade offer to VR available to registered users. I do have one question and that regards the use of S3D with Windows NT 3.5. The install checks for the existance of NT and will not load. I have managed to modify the setup.inf to ignore the NT test and the product works quite well in NT. The question is: what are the draw backs in using S3D with NT that caused you to do the check and abort the load? Has it something to do with the 3.1 release of NT? Beas regards, Ron Frenzl 72737,1042

Due to compiler issues we were not able to access the 16-bit AVI DLLs under NT. We recently solved that problem but it won't show up until the next major product release, probably early summer. Thus, you won't be able to generate or play back animations when using Simply 3D under NT. Sorry… Nick Josephs Visual Software
