- As far as I understand it, 3dStudio is no Raytracer. It can only render in
- Scanline mode (with some tricks to add shadows and some simple reflections).
- Imagine can do real raytracing, Also it can use more brushes and textures on a
- single object.
-
- On the other hand, the 3D Studio previewer and object editors seems better.
-
- We won't argue about price;)
-
- correct me if I'm wrong by the way!
