I think I found him! I will post tomorrow if I can contact him. I used to know him a little way back when(1990's) and found him by accident.

Thanx galacticadude, we would love to talk to him about the future of Aladdin 4D. We would love to have his input and know his original dreams for the 3D package.

Pyromania=Bill Panagouleous=The head honcho at DiscreetFX.  (I hope I spelled the name right.)

Correct spelling is on the link below.

what do you want to ask him? just that amiga.org would like to contact him?:confused:confused:

Have him join Amiga.org if possible please. We would like to talk with him about the future of Aladdin 4D. He is the original creator of the 3D software.

Panagouleas it is!    (Sorry about that.  I must have skimmed that page too quickly when I was looking for your name the first time.)

I go by Bill P, much easier to remember.

[Pyromania]

I went over to his house a few times back in the 90's and saw him working on Draw 4D and
Aladdin 4D. I'll try again today. Sorry

Very nice, please try again. It would be so nice to talk with Greg Gorby the original creator of Aladdin 4D. His thoughts and wisdom would be exciting to know.

Whoever wins the Greg Gorby hunt and finds him wins a free Aladdin 4D after Greg contacts us or we have a way to reach him.

Hey, Pyro, if you're looking for possible expansions, I'd be more than happy to give you a list of things to add to make Aladdin4D more robust.   Personally, I'd really love to see Sub-D surfaces and joint controls for animations, but that's just me. But I do love some of the dynamic effects I've played with in Aladdin more than in Maya. Much easier to use.

Thanx Methuselas, we would be interested in any suggestions for improvements you have and we would pass them along to DiscreetFX Labs.

@vamigan

Thanx, we will try to contact him, best possible contact info we have gotten so far.

Did Greg Gorby ever respond to efforts to contact him?

We have not heard from him yet.
