Anybody ever heard of this? Sounds pretty cool:

It looks like the stuff you'd use to design video games with. Way out of my league, but cool nonetheless.



Oh yeah... watch some of the videos on the site of the second link if you get a chance. They really show the true power of this software.

 

i spent hours trying to learn this on my linux box. Finally made a cube wireframe. I need to learn to use tutorials.

 

I have no idea how to use it at all... just thought it was cool and that I'd post it up to see if anyone knew how.

 

Hopefully someone does, like you said it looks really powerful!

 

I down loaded it a few hours ago and played around a bit with it. Here's a pic of what I have so far, it's a not great rendering but I didn't read how to use it either.

I hate reading tutorials.

 

That's pretty good considering you didn't read the tutorials. I couldn't even figure out how to draw a 3D circle, much less a 4Runner.

 

Thanks Churnd, but I guess you could say I had an advantage. I use to play around with 3D Studio Max when I was more into racing games and Blend is somewhat similar.
