Ahhhh ..So Grasshopper, You think you have what it takes now to play with the big folk in the 3D scene. Well, I am about to take you from the merry-go-round to the vomit comet. If you are new to 3D then maybe you should go back to plain wallpaper for a while and leave this to the experienced 3D aficionados.
I am talking about scene.org This site is close to the ultimate in 3D graphics joyrides. Now they describe themselves as: "Scene.org is a non-profit organization aimed at providing the 'electronic art scene' with a forum for communication and for sharing their work". But I appreciate that this doesn't tell you a whole lot. And when you are in the site don't expect any greater explanation or simple directions to where the good stuff is. Like I said..this is 3D lumberjack territory...where the heavy duty ..no bullshit stuff is...
But in order to save you a lot of heartache and potentially missing the ride of your life and a VERY REAL glimpse into the future...follow this path to a smattering of simply numbing free downloads. First by the way, make sure you are on some sort of box that runs like a startled rhino..as I said this is the big league. Also turn your volume up...sound is a very important part of this 3D realm!!
Step 1. Go to the site via the link above
Step 2. Top Left of this News page.. click on ...info
Step 3. In Info page ..left of screen click on ...articles
Step 4. Ahhh hell this is too hard ..just click... here
Now, here you will find what they call 64k demos...yep thats right ...remember that AFTER you have dowloaded and watched some of these demos which often last several minutes .....64K
One of my favourites is Candytron...so start there. Click on the Zip file. then click on the fro30-candytron-final-101 file, click extract, click the file again, click run. Sit down shut up and be prepared....Don't be afraid. Repeat for other files.
Now don't be suprised if your pc simply don't have what it needs to run their freebies..their FAQs might help you out there.
After you have downloaded and watched ALL of these...which you likely will... then you can go and investigate the rest of their site...there is a lot of real heavy duty stuff there...try downloading a 30Mb file..now we're talking.
So thought that was pretty good stuff aye?....well let's see where we can take you next ..stay tuned
Vin
Thought of the day: Two Birds in the bush are better than one in the hand...at least that's what my dreams tell me.
