Free Modeling tool

[Madcow]

Maybe some folks are aware of this, but a GREAT modeling tool has been made available for free ( was $475 ). truespace is a tool I've been useing for over 10 years for video titleing animations. This is a VERY strong tool with a large learning curve. truespace was accuired by Microsoft who lost interest in it and is now allowing it to be downloaded for free ( for now ). GRAB IT before it goes away !

Awesome I think? If I'm going to learn mapping or want to stretch out a picture of Nameless Entity's real face, this is good then?

This would be used to make objects used in a map i.e. Statues, rocks, toilets ( LOL ) or editing player meshes for new player skins and bodies. Not useful for makeing maps , but can be used for that also ( but unrealED is better than this for maps ).

Getting into the swing of the new version. Did a test video, very simple animation. Wanted to test it's HD rendering. Will start playing with model creation for UT soon.

Good deal! maybe you'll end up changing your name again to "The MadMapper". Hey, I can wish for it right. The video you made was clear and crisp. Nice job!
