Short: Allround 3D-Tool (Imagine, Lightwave, MaxonCinema4D) Author: epgbc@cluster1.urz.Uni-Halle.DE (Andreas Maschke) Uploader: epgbc cluster1 urz Uni-Halle DE (Andreas Maschke) Type: gfx/3d Architecture: m68k-amigaos Dust2.48 is an object-sequence-processor creating 3D-F/X. The programms Imagine, Lightwave3D and MaxonCinema4D are supported directly. Features: -local morph-operator producing exciting effects (morphs, animated boolean effects, ...) -object-smoothing using splines ! -twirl-effect -Dust is some kind of a programming language: *creating of faces (programmed creation of objects !) *moving of points (programmed deformation of objects !) *for-loops *if-statement *global variables *string-formatting *numeric arguments *nice calculator-mode -metamorphosis between any two objects: *closed-surface-morph (like liquids) *triangle-morph (like explosions) *build-morph ("beam-me-up"-effect -1D/2D/3D-waves of different types -realistic water-waves -more realistic explosions -displacement-maps -easy-to-use particle-system -unlimited number of objects, preview-windows, ... -FAST Lightwave<->Imagine-converter keeping subgroups -powerfull online help, no command-description without an example -VERY FAST loading/saving/converting objects -UNIX-like feeling: shell, command-completion, external windows, speed, ... There are more than 200 commands you can execute interactively. Dust can process batch-files and has an ARexx-Port, too. (You can treat it as "External ARexx-Port for Imagine/Lightwave") This is the unregistered version which doesn't feature some commands.
