>VSL materials can be hard to grasp That kinda worries me. In Real3D there is material window with sliders for the material properties (Effect, Brilliance, Transparency etc), and I like that. Now it sounds as if in Realsoft3D to make the same adjustments you need to apply programming skills instead of moving sliders! Is that true? And do you get a paper manual when you buy on internet, on the Realsoft site? >You don't mention what your needs are. I am an artist specialized in making still life scenes. Most of the time I combine photographs, Real3D, Photoshop and Painter to get to the desired result. Then I print it for exhibition and sale purposes.
