Ray Dream Studio represents a 'brave' attempt to allow 2D Photoshop
and Illustrator artists to feel at home in a 3D environment. Providing a simplistic
interface, and attempting to provide drag 'n' drop functionality wherever possible,
this application is obviously aimed at beginners with no genuine knowledge of
3D principles.
MAIN FEATURES AND BENEFITS
DISADVANTAGES AND DRAWBACKS
REVIEW SUMMARY While Ray Dream Studio provides a 'simplified' interface which will ideally suit beginners very well, a nice range of primitive objects and a well implemented shader interface, the likelihood that I'm willing to recommend a 3D modeling/animation package which virtually does not include any modeling tools whatsoever is in a word - 'slim'. Caligari Truespace represents a much better choice for new 3D users in virtually every respect. Written by Nick Smith |
