Some Cool Tools to use With Amapi & Carrara |
- Irfanview - for PC - my favorite Image Viewer - convert it, view it, print it, crop it, even control the playback speed of mpeg or avi movies! Greatest Slideshow and batch conversion - and it's free! Oh, here's a trick question: which program is by far the number 1 download for Windows at Tucows.com. Now you got it!
- Gif Movie Gear - for PC - Gamani's newest version 3.1 reads AVI from Amapi and converts to great animated GIFs. It's the best Gif animator. Period.
- gif2swf's Boomer for PC and Mac (in part) - by Crazy Ivan Productions with Flash MX support! - once you have your animated Gif or AVI, embed it into a Flash animation - and stream it! No need to way for downloads, stream and go and see it immediately.
- Project Dogwaffle! for PC - the most amazing Un-natural Paint program, by Dan Ritchie! a great tool to create seamless textures for Carrara's shaders. A great paint program. A mirror site is at thebest3d.com
- uvmapper - for Mac and PC - if you don't know what it's for then you don't need it. Other than that it's a lifesaver. Thanks Steve!
- PhotoLine32 - for Mac and PC - a great drawing and image editing program with excellent vector art, layers and photoshop filters and many other effects - only around $60. It even converts raster to vectors. If you're ready to go to print, think Photoline! Oh, and it's in several languages. Another fine example of great German engineering!
