Subject: Yet another bizarre move in the world of 3D - Truespace now FREE,
as in air - forever!
Hi Guys,
I suppose you all know by now, TRUESPACE ( originally by Caligari, but who
recently got taken over by MICROSOFT ) is now FREE - forever. This is the
latest version too - last week it would have cost you $595 or so:
http://www.caligari.com/Products/trueSpace/tS75/brochure/intro.asp?Cate=BIntro
All you need to do is go to download button - login OR register ( free ) -
and download.
Not alone is the app now free but also ALL the original paid for training
videos.
This is not a limited offer and the app is NOT CRIPPLED. Their is no catch
.. really!
From the Caligari Forums info has seeped through that over at the Blender
forums ( www.blenderartists.org ) - they are complaining about TS being
made free. Now thats a good one :)
But indeed - will this have any impact on the 3D industry at all? I know
that some complain about TS and its interface. But it has a huge toolset,
does the lot inc Char Anim, is hugely oriented to virtual world stuff and
gaming.
Apparently the app will keep on developing FOR FREE, so its not
abandonware - yet. Be that as it may - this is not a free previous
version - this is a free CURRENT VERSION!
