About Swift3D V5:

If you haven’t ever used Swift3D, or you’ve never heard of it before, here’s the low-down. Swift3D is a 3D modeling and animation environment that makes professional animations that can be exported and integrated very easily into Flash. Not only does it make 3D animations a snap, but the interface is easy to use and even a beginner can start animating in minutes. The thing I like the most about Swift is the fact that you can create things in a 3D environment, and export them in vector format, yes vector. I like to design intricate 3D scenes and export them as an AI file to use in Illustrator, but you might be more interested in the Flash side of the program, I don’t know. In fact, I wrote a tutorial a long time ago about using Swift3D as a powerful 3D Illustration tool, if you’re interested in reading that.

Key Features:

  • Import 3DS and DXF files.
  • Export Vector OR Raster animations
  • The only 3D animation software that directly integrates with Flash.
  • Drag and Drop preset animations (rotate left, right, up, down, etc.)
  • New to V5, Export to Papervision
  • Save as AI, EPS, or SVG vector formats
  • Export to Silverlight (If you’re into that)

Like I said, I use Swift3D mostly for exporting single frames an vector format to use in Illustrator, but that’s what’s great about this software. It can do so many different things, I’m sure many of you could find plenty of good uses for it. Good luck to everyone! Let the contest begin :)

  14. This program Swift3D sounds like magic. I am a 3D animation major who uses soft-image, but i am looking for something more user friendly. I tried zbrush, then i tried sketchup, and i still haven’t found something that can work good with flash. i don’t always have the time that is needed to make intricate detailed 3D models like most animation majors. I need something that is simple and effective! This software sounds amazing. I would love to see how i can integrate it into my work flow and produce some really cool stuff. =)

  126. Thanks for the chance to win! Love your blog.

  127. Wow… amazing prize!

    I’d love to get my hands on a copy: the integration with Studio Max and PaperVision3D would make for some serious fun. I last used a copy when it was v3, but seeing the incredible work ERain have done with nurbs editing etc, since then I’m in love.

    I spend so much time under the hood of Flash and Flex engineering the data-driven side of things it would be great to be able to bust out with some eye candy for a change!

  128. Yoink!

  129. Awesome, looks like some good stuff.

  130. This is awesome!

  131. I would rather win this than the lottery right now. Even if I did win the lottery, I would probably buy this.
