I can't believe it, at last, finally, Blender 2.40 is out.After some 7 monyhs of contiguous development and struggking, it's out and it has plenty of new and exciting features , becoming more and more like high-end 3d apps like maya or xsi. I hope in 2-3 years it will be at least as advanced as them.Here's the link: http://blender.org/cms/Blender_2_40.598.0.html . Enjoy!
Yes I can finally add some better graphics to my game... Maya is that bit better but then again would you pay for something you can get for free? Thats whats blender is for...
Time to replace 2.40-alpha 2 on my system. Actually, if your going to be doing game graphics, Blender might be the better choice since that was it's orginal purpose: to create video games for the NEO GEO system.
Maya is the current trend sitter for character animation. Architecture firms and many game developers still use 3D Studio Max and a lot of TV and video people use Lightwave for their work.
I promised my friend that I'd shamelessly plug his Blender Xgrid project at http://macminigrid.astahost.com/ . I think his goal is to create a distrubted computing system using Apple's Xgrid. Although he's waiting for enough people to step foreward before spending like $5k on the Xserve. I think he plans to start with a Mac Mini he already uses at home as a rendering agent and install OS 10.4 server and use it as a full time grid controller if he can't find someone with OS 10.4 Server and a PowerMac willing to host the project for him.
I think blender is cool. I really don't know much about it and really suck at rendering, but there are some people that can do amazing work. I just down load the star trek ships and animate them going in straight paths and blowing up and stuff just to show how big of a nerd I really am.

But for a freeware program, and with "constant" updates, plus good help and actually lots of people that work with this tool that also could help you, this is my second choise, and the first for building simple things for my experiental and fun projects.
I nearly had a heart attack when I saw this e-magazine (PC Magazine) on a website that will remain
nameless just because of the nature of this website. Anyway with my wonderful pdf extracting skills
I cut the pages down, and if all goes well the links to the original article should still work. So
what kind of software are we talking about well I put it like this you might already have them,
software covers Operating Systems, Antivirus/Anti-Malware, Firewalls, Security, Finance, Office,
Calendar/PIMs, Backup/Sync, App Launchers, Utilities, Downloads, Interface Enhanceme....
Hey everyone, if you read my blog, you will probably see my post about Comodo software. If not,
I'll talk about it on the forums! You know, spending 50$ for a spyware scanner is
tough, you also need to spend that same money on Antivirus, Firewalls etc. Comodo however, is an
amazing company that offers all these products for free. And no, they aren’t stripped down versions
that are made to promote paid products… because that’s the thing. They don’t have paid products.
They’re just some rich company who sell SSL certificates (which can cost over 1000$ f....

hard to find things of it). The competition is regarding writing reviews about e....

Because of my hard drive's small capacity, I didn't want to install the 300+mb office suite

office suite - alpha-office - eclipse office - liberty office - bestoffice I haven't
installed any of these but what I'm trying to look for is a suite that is compatible with .doc,
.xls, .ppt, and other files Microsoft Office has. It also has to be small no more than 10....

advantage of". Check it out: www.wordpress.org and the changelog: http://code....
