According to a newsletter I just got from Mitchron/Microdeal (the makers of GFA Basic), they have just released a CAD package similar to CAD 3-D by Antic. It has some interesting features, such as ray tracing, a language similar to cyber control for moving objects, but most imprtantly, it can display 9600 colors!!! If anyone has any info on this package, I would greatly appreciate it. I was planning on going out and buying Cyber Control, Cyber Sculpt, and Cyber Texture in a few weeks, but before I invest any more money into Cyber Studio, I would like to find out about this new package. If I get anything interesting, I'll summerize to the net. "Exterminate! Exterminate!"--Daleks /~\-* ###--< /***\ /*****\ Aric Friesen Addresses: Genie: A.FRIESEN ARPA: Friesen%PCO@BCO-MULTICS.ARPA

GfA Basic is written by Frank Ostrowski of GfA Systemtechnik in Duesseldorf/ Germany !! Nice stuff, isn't it ? By the way, Frank, if you read this, please, do something about the bugs in parameter returning of procedures. It isn't funny to read 'Falscher Pointer' any time !
