About trueSpace6

trueSpace6 is one of the most inexpensive yet capable programs to create 3D scenes, pictures, animation and models. Using object creation tools using primitives, nurbs, plastiform and metaball structures, with a little practice one can create anything and I mean ANYTHING. trueSpace6 allows for the movement and animation of any point, vertex, and object making how to create endless. trueSpace uses layers to hide objects on the screen so that a scene is not boggled down by a lot of pollygons on a screen. The program also allows for different kinds of arrays and so with a click of a button the user can place copies of an object with a grid, radial, or spline array. trueSpace also allows for the bending, skewing, and filletting of objects, as well as shelling and modeling in mirror mode.

Texturing isn't just complex, it is extremely fun. Users can layer textures onto each other, add transparency, luminance, and bumpmap shaders. One can also place their own texture bump and transparency maps on objects and create a new look or feel to an otherwise, washed out boring object. trueSpace6 has the ability to unwrap an object so that textures can be tailored to an object. One of the most amazing features of trueSpace6 is that every object can become a light source making lights, stars, and other heat emitting objects a breeze to create.

To animate, trueSpace6 comes with the ability to use bones, muscles, inverse kinematics, and gravity to animate 3D objects in real time. The plug-ins online are great and trueSpace6 even comes with a plug-in for 3D face creation and animation.

In order to render a scene, trueSpace is both directX and Direct3D compatable and has the ability to add post production effects such as color enhancment, lens flare, fog, and volumetric lighting. Added to the fact that you can raytrace in either raycast or scanline mode, trueSpace6 is the best and most versitile programs on the market today.
