AutoProject for AutoCAD
	AutoProject for AutoCAD is a plug-in for AutoCAD 2000, 2000i, 2002 and 2004. This plug-in gives AutoCAD the ability to project 3D entities to 2D entities in the XY plane in the AutoCAD model space. A common but inefficient method of creating workshop ready drawings is to create the top view, the front view, a side view and sometimes an isometric view of a 3D model all in the 2D XY plane. Then these 3 or 4 views are placed relative to each other to give the end user a complete idea of what the 3D model is all about. Experienced draftsmen have confirmed that the isometric view is the one that takes most of the time, whereas the orthographic views only end up adding to the time spent in completing the drawing. A closer look at this method will show you that, in effect, you are drawing a single entity 4 times over, one for each view. With AutoProject for AutoCAD you can drastically reduce the time spent in creating a workshop ready drawing, while making full use of the AutoCAD 3D functionality. All you have to do is create a 3D drawing of the model you wish to describe and AutoProject for AutoCAD will take care of the rest. With AutoProject for AutoCAD you can create 6 orthographic views and 8 isometric views within no time. AutoProject for AutoCAD is very easy to use as it adds several commands to AutoCAD. You simply type a command at the AutoCAD command prompt, select the entities you wish to project and the job is done.

	NC Editor
	NC Editor is a Numerical Control (.NC) file viewing, editing and printing application. CNC Machines worldwide use Numeric Control files (.nc or .ncc) to convert programmed instructions to tool movement. NC programs consist of a sequence of codes with parameter data to arrive at a precise description of the tool path. But the best of NC programmers also can make mistakes. NC Editor renders a 3D image of your NC program to let you verify that everything is how you planned it to be. NC Editor has been designed keeping CNC programmers in mind. Below are some of the features incorporated in this incredible editor: Opens and works with multiple NC files simultaneously. Animation/Backplot capability. Imports NC commands from any text file Print and Print Preview capabilities. Undo operations. Support for clipboard operations. Automatic E-mailing of NC files. Rotate, Zoom and Pan the drawing with the mouse. Predefined Axis and Isometric views Perspective and Orthographic projection. Global and per file configuration. Context-sensitive help system.

	Spriteforge 3D 2 2D Spriteset Renderer
	Overview of Purpose: What is SpriteForge? SpriteForge is essentialy a tool for creating large numbers of 2D sprites from 3D models. You can 'photoraph' your model's animation frames (or simply it's static profile) from several different camera angles in just a few easy steps. Primarily designed for creating game sprites, spriteForge is also great for making 3D website graphics (ie spinning 3D logos), taking photos of a 3D model for sale, avatars for chatrooms, testing a model's animation, spriteForge has a multitude of uses, think of it as an advanced photo studio for your 3D models! With SpriteForge you can even create sequences of many models at once, then simply choose the orbit positions and elevation you require. This makes SpriteForge perfect for creating for example; 2D 45'orthographic characters for an RPG style game, animated in all 8 directions! How is it helpful over my 3D program's Renderer? Take a 'top down' RPG, where everything has to be at an orthographic 30' camera elevation and in all 8 rotations (N NE E SE S SW W NW). One very common practise to use a 3d modeller's output to do this. However, this can take a lot time to set up using camera paths etc, or for more basic users the old: 'move camera, take pic, move camera, take pic....' aproach. Imagine all the organising and planning, especially if you have lots of models to process that all have to follow the same pattern. In addition, with a modellers output its hard to get the frame dimensions to sprite ratio right, with SpriteForge you get it exactly right. (and if you so desire in a nice table!). Finally, you can save your custom settings (or studio environment) for repeated use.
