Depends on your Version of Real 3D. The older the version, the easier it was to use.
Lightwave has always been easier to use than Real3D for me. But then we all have different views!  ;-)

Thanks for the Love on the Rigs m8y but RE the cost getting here, I might have an understanding life sucking b1tch for a partner who gets me a cold one from the Fridge once in a while, but I`d be a dead man several times over if shew knew exactly what I`ve spent over the years. She`s not Blonde & far from it, but I keep her as "Blonde" as possible when it comes to Computer gear. I guess an honest answer is, "Too much tbh"
I have 3 Big Box Miggys here & one of them & the Tower are going to have to go. This is also in line with Debs "un-blonding" herself asking why I need 3 Amigas? I started running out of Ideas after I filled the G-Rex 4000D & then filled another Towered A4KD with a Toaster/Flyer/Sync arrangement. All 3 boxes are running PPC 604e's & one of them is on OS4, of a fasion!

RE Lightwave, my experience with it is somewhat limited. I am traditionally an Imagine 3.0 guy on the Miggy, but it`s years since I did anything with it really. Had some work published in Amiga Format back in the early 90's & done nothing since the Divorce went through back in '94.

I guess I just became an Amiga Hardware Whore over the years!  :crazy:

I have considered a couple of Showcase sales, but probably wouldn`t get their true value. I expect the Rigs will be broken up eventually. I am doing a Library of Photos of all my Amiga Stuff here. It`s taking longer than I expected!

Yeah, but the Best way to Ray Trace is Wire-Frame on the Miggy & then Real Time Texture Rendering on Screamers!  :-D

@ A6000

LOL, she just aint that "Blonde" m8y! :lol:

@ Jeff

The LianLi PC75 is a 7 Slot Alluminium case with Side Window.
The A4KT mobo RGB card lines up perfectly with the Top Slot on the PC75's back plane. The SCSI card fouls tho` & a simple Nick on the backplane allows it to fit & hang out of the Vertical Pee Cee I/O Plate Window. I have a pattern drawn up ready to make an Entire Rear Plate for the Case, It`s just a matter of getting round to it! ;-)
Rest of the cards fit a treat Inc Mediator PCI cards, though you need a spacer to secure to Backplane.

OT: @ Amithony

Looks like Lightwave has the edge all round so far.  :-)
