- CK Game Factory (Chikara Kojima) has come out with a great plug-in pack for trueSpace 5+:
PolyTools. It includes 17 plug-ins for only $20. The free version (which has
a limit of 200 polys) can be downloaded at PrimitiveItch

useful.

that the base version of their new DAZ Studio prior to the release of
version 1.0 will be available as a free beta. This free version renders
imported Poser 4 .PZ3 files. Posing, animation, model import and other
features will follow later. Eventually DAZ Studio will be a modular program,
i.e. customers will be able to choose and buy those components that they
need, among them dynamic hair and cloth-authoring.

her head!
