I told you they'd make it!

Now they got a 100.000 user database and if they reach a 1% potential buyer market they would have 1.000 buyers of a software that costs almost US$1.000; so do the figures= 1 million bucks!

hehehehhe

let's see how spiffy this modeler turns out to be and which export options it offers; otherwise Blender and wings will beat it hands down (as modeling tools for 3d game development I mean). :wink:

looks to me they are taking a more autocad as apposed to blender type approach so they obviously expect this to make the biggest impact on the corporate world.

which could reach the billion dollar mark quiet easily.

oh yes it was like 72000 when i registered not 75000 sorry for the mistake I was going on memory then I actually checked it a moment later and realised the mistake but hey you guys are like eagles to this anyways.

I just looked it's at 96366 maybe somebody should post this on other forums it's already the 20th.

:shock: ...WOW.. They made the 100.000 registers!! :D 8)
I admit i really had my doubts at the start since they needed like 25.000 register in a half month! But it seems the registers have exploded here at the end! :)

Got mine too..
I was a little disapointed by the fact that it's got this quite large google bar with ads and that it closes if you're not connected :/
But at least it's a free CAD program :)
