Hi I am trying to get the company that i work for to update to a 3d program.

The only thing is I have found 2 packages that look interesting ...not sure

if I can use them with flash and which is the better one to get...


Roger,

	I don't know any thing about the two programs that you described. But, I do

know allot about a 3D animation software package that I use. It's called

"Animation Master" you can get it from www.hash.com I have not seen another

3D program that has as many functions and capabilities as this one, for

under $1000 that is. I runs about $300 and well worth every penny. It is

spline based rather than polygons, which is a plus. It renders stills or is

fully capable of animation. It has a bit of a learning curve to it, but I

love it and so does anyone who has tried it. It doesn't export directly to

flash, but practically no 3d program that is worth anything does. But with

some work you can get it into flash. In my humble opinion, check it out.
