WANTED: Lightwave 5.0, 5.5, 5.6
« on: February 21, 2015, 08:16:19 PM »
Hi,

I've been trying to track down a copy of Lightwave 5.x for Windows for a long time.  I want this because I'd like to compare the PC version that was the same as the last version of Lightwave for the Amiga.  I'm having a lot of trouble even finding such a version.  The unfortunate part is, I'm sure a lot of old copies of Lightwave 5.x have just been thrown out over the years.  I'd love to put it to good use.

Can anyone sell me a copy or point me to somewhere where I can get an early version of PC Lightwave?

Also would be interested in purchasing the original installation CD of Lightwave 5.x for Amiga (I have earlier versions).

Thanks

You could probably find a torrent somewhere, if you're into that sort of thing.

Thanks.  I've been bitten by malware from that sort of thing, so I avoid torrents. I was hoping to find either a vetted clean source that didn't require a dongle, or the original disks with dongle.

It's hard to find older versions though, everyone seems to be selling version 10 or later used. I wouldn't doubt that even with the torrents they don't bother making available versions as old as 5.x, unfortunately.
