Is anyone running this under Win95? The site says it runs under
Win98 and WinNT, but I'm running Win95, and don't want to take the
time to download.

I downloaded it (which took 2 1/2 hours). After installing it, and Cult 3D
(which comes with it), I tried to run it. I'm using Windows 95. I got a
message that said "this program requires Windows NT 4.0 or later". Then it
exited. So, don't bother.

Not to ask pity or anything but I downloaded that thing at about 1K/sec. and the final
part failed I guess, around 4 hours after it began. I was using that eBot downloader
since the direct save failed me. Maybe it was wanting a connection when it finished
so
it could "install" and because I left it unattended the AOL idle-timed-out at the end
and thus left the zip file empty. Surprising to say the least.
That was actually my second attempt, the first time I foolishly thought I could
suspend
the download at the halfway point and lost it instead.

I downloaded here at work (< 4 minutes) and then asked someone to burn it in
onto a CD so that I could install it at home - haven't had time yet. So
I've used some of my lunch breaks to try it out.
Normally on like to point out the good things, but this one bad thing stands
out - each time I start the application, it wants to connect to the 3d.com
web-site - which is painfully slow - so I am required to sit and wait for it
to connect before I can close the window making the connection. Otherwise
it looks like a nice modeller/animation system.

It allows you to export a shape to a DXF file. Using Crossroads, that
can be converted to a POV file (a gargantuan mesh).

Odd. For me it opens a silly little 3D.Com window upon startup, but it
doesn't
attempt an internet connection.
Perhaps it wants you to register? Or did you register it already?

Oh. Thanks. Well, DXF is alright enough. Now if I can convince myself to go through
another 5 (yes, mistake about it being 4) hours of download time.

Thanks for the info, after 2 1/2 hours download, cannot run it, needs 64
mg ram, I only have 32, (sob sob), oh well, time for an upgrade.

How do you register it? I tried installing it at home
(where I don't have an internet access), but it asks for the
cd and registration information... :(

Hmmm, I don't remember. Seems that it prompted me
immediately after installation, and I registered through the
web and an e-mail was sent to me with the registration number.
Not sure, now. :-?

I have too big trouble with downloading. I live in Russia, connecting
through 56K modem. I tryed ~10 times downloading with eBot, but not success.
Direct connection with no reget. If it possible upload it on some ftp/http
server with reget possibility.

Does anybody know another way to register?

Yes I registered. I'm getting the same 3D.com window - but I am assuming
its trying to get updates from their site.

Bummer,
I haven't finished installing it at home - does it require OpenGL hardware
acceleration too?

Not sure, I don't have it running yet, I know that Truespace3SE from a
magazine disk as mentioned in another thread does, and since OpenGL is not
included on the disk, I cannot get that running either, TS3SE does not
recognies OpenGL32.dll.
Anyone else managed to get this running from the magazine disk?

You can export your models in dxf format (save as , then choose dxf) and
then use 3dwin to convert it to 3dx and them import it into moray. (at
least that's what I did)

If you can get it to export .3ds or .obj files, then the mesh importer
plugin written by Alexander Enzmann makes importing the objects and their
textures into Moray a lot easier.
Maybe I'll get round to installing it and seeing exactly what it can do,
but then again maybe not :)
Bye for now,
Jamie.

Too late. We know where you live. We know who you are. The Sentinnels
have been deployed. You are commanded to sit there and wait.
Disobedience is not an option.

Strata makes some pretty pictures but I found it pretty much a useless toy.
You must purchase the Pro version to do most of the truly useful things like
boolean operations, etc., and it's export of .dxf makes it a less than ideal
choice as a modeller for pov.
Try 3D Canvas instead, if you mainly render with POV.
