YES!! =)
Just checked out the vid for rendering with vector, using the same renderer as Swift3dv3. Whats it called Ravix or something like that. Awesome new feature.
::::Free shockwave exporter as well
Yep RAVIX is the swift 3d v3 renderer.
heyheyheyhey!!!
There’s a vector renderer for max 4 out too ya know!! just as a plugin… but it’s there!!!
yeah… erain (swift 3d makers) have a plug-in for 3d max… but uh… the fact that you can export vector without the need of plug-ins is still an advantage IMO [size=1]although it uses the ravix engine:-[/size]
