Yes perhaps, we briefed one person about the news item before posting it but in the future we should allow a few people from several countries to check it out ahead of time.

You do realise that Aladdin Systems was force to change it's name to Allume Systems because of a Trademark dispute with Aladdin Knowledge Systems (which is now known as SafeNet).

We have documented proof of the name Aladdin 4D going way way way back. This is in many forms including but not limited to published magazine articles & Ads.

"We hope it will not take another 1000 years for version 6.0 to be finished!"

Until the MorphOS (or others) version is released, even a 100% off sale would be worthless...

Hey that's a low blow!





We did not have control of Aladdin 4D when it was originally being developed in the Middle Ages.

Updating it so its not **** takes many hours, time and effort. Better to do it the right way.

It is being discussed internally. Some of the newer features like MUI support and modern filters would benefit the 68k version. Bug fixes being done in the rewrite would also benefit the 68k version of the software.

The problem here is I don't know how to program in C. DiscreetFX Labs is working on Aladdin 4D 6.0, they are not done with it yet. I want it available more than anyone. We don't have customers waiting on the wings of nothingness. Anyone that really wanted a refund already got one. Believe it or not people enjoy and use Aladdin 4D 5.x everyday.

I'm still not quite sure what your program does.  What's a similar program in the PC/Mac world?

Aladdin 4D is a entry level, beginners 3D animation/rendering program. It makes pretty pictures and animations.

@Pyromania: then what about stop selling/advertising something that doesn't exist and you obviously have no idea as to when (and if) it will be completed ?

And selling what you already got (bought): Aladdin, v5, Amiga68k version.

We don't sell Aladdin 4D 6.0, are you are telling us to stop selling version 5.x?  if so, sorry to inform you we will not do that. We have put a lot of R&D funds into Aladdin 4D development and there is nothing wrong with selling the current version. It has cool features like gaseous effects and renders very faaaaaaaaast in Amiga Virtual Machines. You are welcome not to buy it if it does not interest you.
