ok, a thread about the actual state of 3dgs. the screenshots posted even rely on a 3rd party plugin that does not belong to the 3dgs toolset from the start on. it's like the pretty sphere2 screenshots: the use of these enhancements is limited to users with experience, knowledge and patience, and has nothing to do with the 3dgs out-of-the-box functionality that it's always praised for.
now tell me about "being".
