    Well done Bruce. I used to be hooked on animations and adding them to e-mails, but I haven't done any for quite a while.

    Re-rendered entirely within XXP4, an image I originally made with Xara3D two or three years ago. I still had the original XaraX vectors and textures. I don't throw anything like that away if I can help it!

    The only compromise I had to make for XaraXtremePro4 was that a couple of parts needed sliced to allow them to be both in front of and behind other parts due to the difference in the way that Xara3D and XXP4 handle multiple objects in 3D space. It has turned out pretty much identical to the X3D version.

    I won't be throwing away Xara3D just yet, as it has more flexibility in the 3D environment than XXP4 has at the moment, though I'm sure that will come in the next version or so.

    Lovely work, Mike.
    Like you, I throw nothing away - hence the need for external drives.
    But, what is it? My first guess is an astrolabe. Anyhoo, it's a great reincarnation of a piece of Xara3D work. As you say, no need to throw
    away the X3D software just yet, but who knows, the potential of the release of XXP4 is enormous.
    Saludos,
    Bob.

    Oh I will certainly not throw 3D6 away, first for the animation and
    the easy export options, I need avi for I want to do video and I can
    make a spinning logo in the corner with a green background and export that as avi, so 3D6 certainly has it purpose for me yet.
    (and I also make SWF files for paltalk, just to make some nice things
    for when I am on cam)

    Bob, it is a pocket sundial from the days before pocket watches. It would fold flat for putting in a pocket, and the user would fold out the inner ring, and orient the sundial north/south, adjust it for latitude, etc, and dangle it from the ring. You can still buy modern versions.

    Can you extrude an object with a vanishing point perspective?

    Use the 'Perspective' selection'

    Hi guys,
    Note that feathering also works on extrudes
