Challenge April/May

I think we will bend rule 1 <!– s:) –><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif" alt="" title="Smile" /><!– s:) –>

I will change it from andquot;All pictures must be rendered only in the 3DC engine.andquot; to andquot;All entries must [b:3mzb4neb]include[/b:3mzb4neb] a picture rendered with the 3DC engine – this will allow you to use external programs to render the ‘final’ picture(eg povray or maybe some ‘in game shots’ of the models ?andquot;) – please list all programs used.andquot;

No problem using Photo textures <!– s:) –><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif" alt="" title="Smile" /><!– s:) –>

This challenge is a first here at 3DC as it will have [color=Red:flmf9gpk]PRIZES[/color:flmf9gpk]

The prize will be a free upgrade to the latest version of 3DC – If you already own v6.x and you win then you will be entitled to a free upgrade to version 7.x (when released <!– s:) –><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif" alt="" title="Smile" /><!– s:) –> )

[size=1:flmf9gpk]Amabilis’ 3DC – Modeling, Unwrapping, Animation and More.[/size:flmf9gpk]

This sounds like an interesting challenge. andnbsp; Does stipulation number 1 exclude the use of 3DC’s Pov-Ray extensions? andnbsp; Also, are photo textures acceptable?
