That rendering looks good by the way. =)

what rendering process is that ???
i thought the swift softwares only did vector (flash) rendering ? But this looks like it has nice reflections ??!

no the version 3 has a raster render function. you can import environments that will reflect in the chrome. Its a cool update on v2!

i never bothered to upgrade… cos i thought it would be more of the same and i started to save for a bigger and better program… but then lost sight of my goal… :cyclops:
looks sweet though… i may just upgrade later on in life… :tie:

mmmmm Jello… :crazy:
Anywho, it looks great man. I got a chance to use Swift3D V2 a while back and that program confused the heck outta me, I have no clue how you created such a thing… nice work though.

finicky means that it requires a lot of effort to work with… aka it’s a pain in the arse.

Im glad I don’t. Now that you say that, it sounds familiar, I still don’t know what it is, but I have heard it before.
Don’t tell me what it is, I have no desire to know.
