I'm interested in hearing opinions from people who have used various Mac
3d graphics/animation packages.
One of the major thing's I'm looking for is a program with a good 3d model
editor that can handle articulated models without too much trouble.
Something with a motion scriptor for creating animations would also be a plus.
I'm looking for something that can produce high quality images, suitable for
photographing or recording on videotape. And (hopefully) with some form of
low-resolution preview mode that can be used to produce quick test animations
before investing hours (days) generating high-quality ones.

Try Super3D from Silicon Beach. It has some pretty nice built-in features for doing autorotation/increment/scale. Handles Bezier curves, 24bit color, most of the nice, fuzzy details and has the scripting that you want. I believe you can even hot-link your pictures to VideoWorks II to take advantage of the more powerful animators there, if you need it. Enjoy - I only have version 1 (can't afford the update to 2 yet), but it is fun, nevertheless. Jeffrey Hallett, PET Software Engineer GE Medical Systems, Box 414 Milwaukee, WI 53201 (414) 548-5163
