Vectorstyle question. 2003-12-03 - By Thomas Stump

Hi Mike,
Nice house...
I may be going out on a limb here, but I'm pretty
sure VectorStyle ? la Carrara does not handle
textures. VectorStyle is using the RAViXII motor
(I think). The RAViXIII motor, found in Swift3D
V3 supports texture maps.

<Quoting> from the user guide:
Finally we come full circle to raster output
I have to laugh when I tell people we're excited
to be rendering raster output from Swift 3D V3.
We've always been very conscious of explaining to
people that we're a Flash-specific tool
focus completely on vector-based 3D. Up until now
this has meant vector import only in the
of AI and EPS and vector output only in the form
of SWF, AI, EPS and SVG.Well, all I have to
is, "the times they are a changing." By using
Swift 3D V3 you are now the proud owner of a
ray tracing rendering engine in addition to the
industry leading RAViX vector renderer.
This new technology at your command is named EMO
(it stands for Electric Motion if you're
and it's capable of some serious raster
rendering. Now you're not just limited to creating
based 3D content, and that can mean whatever you
want it to. Photorealism, bitmap
raster file export (JPEG, BMP, PNG, etc.) are
just a few of the new options you have
the inclusion of the EMO Ray Tracing engine under
the Swift 3D hood. And to top things off,
can stuff your wild raster renderings into
sheep's clothes by creating bitmap-based SWF
import into Flash better than any raster formats out there.

Frankly, I haven't tested it. I've been a bit
wary of the camera handling (and the fact that
different parts of my model came in rotated at
different angles)..but, hey! I'm a whacker in
this program.
