Forum description for new web visitors.

This is really just a casual easy going modeling tutorial forum for Caligari Truespace 3D modeling software. It features how to use TS to make 3D models with the software itself. You'll also find downloable files in the form of file attachments to some posts as well a some free 3D models uploaded by forum members. In addition to the main forum it has several sub forums for other Caligari modeling software like Caligari Gamespace 3D. We also have forums for Battlezone II Combat Commander, VRML modeling, and Unreal Tournament modeling plugins for Truespace. The original forum is about a year old now but is still actively maintained by my self as a general teaching aid to other people interested in 3D modleing in general. I welcome you all and encourage interested people to join the forum and share with others what you like about the art of creating things in three dimentional art forms.

The forum is under going constant changes to make it more fun and useful for forum members and web users who happen to stumble across us on the Internet. We also have a Live Chat feature for members wanting to yap with one another if their so inclined. Have fun and enjoy yourself folks. BNG123.

Truespace TSX plugins: Adding Functionality to 3D Modeling.

The forum is a tribute to Caligari Corporation's 3D modeling software. Caligari's flagship Truespace now lives on in a small, but rather dedicated group of die hard former Caligari fans. 3rd party plugin development still continues even though Truespace software development was stopped by the new owner Microsoft Corporation.

Truespace TSX plugins: Adding Functionality to 3D Modeling.

FYI: What's a TSX plugin? They're basically little DLL based addons for Truespace that do special modeling tasks like converting IK based bone animations to vertex based animations. They are also user creatable by using free third party software like FreeBasic to create custom plugins for Truespace based on the Caligari SDK using the TS C++ libraries. With a bit of programming knowledege a user can get more out of Truespace by creating their' own customized plugins for TS. Several dozen people have already created plugins that can do things like make model file importers and exporters, automate repetitive tasks, create templates for things like Tree generators much the same way that Max users can already do using third party plugins for MAX. Several premade plugins come equipped with TS 7.6. Many of the earlier TSX plugins written for TS 3.2 will run under newer versions of TS as well.

While not really a TS plugin this little Caligari application will add thumbnail support to the windows file system to display COB and SCN files as thumbnail images. It's very useful if you don't have 3D Exploration as a model viewer. Clicking on a thumbnail automatically opens the file in Truespace for editng. Download it Here. After installing it restart your system to enable it.
