It has been a while since I have had any free time to do any Yaroze development (having a son a couple of months ago will do that to your free time ). Anyway, I am now trying to once again set aside some time to work on projects. I have done some simple 2D stuff, and I would now like to try some simple 3D stuff. One concern I have is a lack of a 3D modeler. I have read that our friends at SCEI were given a free 3D modeler with their Net Yaroze package. I remember getting a coupon for a DOS 3D modeler, but have long since lost this coupon and I can not remember the name of the package. What are people using to generate 3D models? If you do not own any modeling software, are you just using provided sample ... or models generated by folks with the nice software packages? Long story short, what is available (please list web sites if possible). Also, is there anything out there for $99 or less? I would really like to get something on the cheap. I guess I could post this to the 3D group, but the beginner group seems like a better place for this type of question. Thanks for your time. Please remember to get rid of the NO-SPAM stuff (sorry ... I have to do something to keep the spam away). Also, feel free to check out my home page (non-yaroze) and see some nice pictures of my new pride and joy ... -- Jonathan [Please remove NO-SPAM to email me] Visit Calverts' Stuff - http://calvertj.home.mindspring.com
