Topic: Truespace 7.6 Free Modeling Tool

[Cyberkada]

Caligari the company that makes the 3D app truespace is now offerring its latest version 7.6 free to the public. I've used this product back in the mid 90's and it is a decent 3D modleing tool. The interface was a bit quarky but the tool itself was good.

No.

Here is the list of programs that can edit .MOD format:

M6's editor - Use openGL, can open/save .mod, import/export LWO, edit polygon/vertex, texture mapping.
