Where do you get programs to make 3D objects? (Heres one that I found http://www.advancedspuds.com/launch1.htm ) How much do these programs cost, which ones are the best, where do you get them, please also give any other infromation I need to know or should know.

lots of ppl use rinoe[sp] its free and easy to DL, can some one give him the url to the site, idk it. i use solid edge, its not DLable my uncle gav eit to me, but its really good

Download the demo. It says up to 25 saves but it actually lasts forever.

Get gmax. It is a stripped version of 3ds max. It is free. Lol I have 3ds max but it is $3500 (not a typo). Gmax is good as long as you dont want to import your models into games. I dont think you can render with it either so that is a downside.

Personaly, I use POV-Ray to do my renderings. It has some really advanced options, but doesn't come with premade libraries of objects - you have to make everything out of primitives, no shortcuts.

Not to mention that you have to learn the syntax & vocabulary...

rhino 3d works great, and its very easy to use after you just do one or 2 tutorials, plus you can just get the demo version, and the saves never run out

Gmax is good, but Rhino 3D is a lot simpler for a beginner to use. I've been using it for a while and it woks great. I'd reccomend using gmax after you have a bit more experience and want to do animations such as projectile motion sims and such.

By the way, thanks Cole.

Is it possible to download the program on to a disk at a libary then download it on to my computer at home. Im not a computer person. The reason is because I cant stay on long enough for the download to complete (some one calls and it kicks me off the internet). Wal-mart connect sucks! Please help.

Try downlaoding it at night when you know no one will use the phone. If that does not work then I will try to mail you a cd containing gmax. or rhino. Woot, 100th post.
