The image that is wrapped around the 3d object does not show well in the preview window. I.e. the default preview only shows some yellow/green and white colors… when I load my own it’s not much better.

I am using Windows 7.

The only thing I would ask is to somehow speed this thing up. A 64-bit Mac version would be ideal.

Please help!

Noulzy, thanks for the suggestions. I am going to add magazine shapes in the future versions. The rest is saved in my TODO-list.

As for 3DS files, there are lot of free and commercial files in the Internet (google for “download 3DS files”). And finally, if you can’t find what you need, it is not a problem to hire a freelancer to make a file for you. Shapes like magazines and DVD-boxes shouldn’t cost a lot.

Thanks a lot for your reply Vitaly… Cool for DVD boxes. I have not tried the 3DS external file yet, not too sure where to get these files. Are there websites where you can buy such models?

I have 2 other suggestions:
Magazine/brochure style: Maybe a brochure with 8 or 12 pages (which is thin).. but I can’t see anywhere where to change the thickness of the magazine (no of pages)

Envelopes? Maybe have some envelopes with standard sizes A4, A5, DL (maybe these could be fit shape to image) and then have 2 different back flaps (flat and triangular – on side or at the top). The on rendering it would show one envelope standing and then a few on the floor with one showing the back.

Luis, this will be added in the next release (perhaps not all and not exactly as you described) James Smith, I can't imagine where and why you may need rulers in Box Shot 3D. Please contact me by e-mail with more details about them. Pèter, placing image to the floor requires plenty of additional options, so this will be probably added a bit later, when the user interface will be ready for that. Noulzy, I'll think about changing the height of DVD boxes in the future versions. Concerning the custom shapes, the only way to make everyone happy is to use "External File" shape with your own 3DS files.

HI Vitaly,

First of all… amazing product for the price!!! really impressed by the result and the flexibility… I’ve been playing a bit with the software and read all the forums on the updates… right now didn’t come accross something that I wouldn’t be able to do except for one thing.
For the DVD Box, I just did for a client a DVD box (Digipack style) – It’s the size of a CD box. but looks like that…

6 panels:

Would be great to able to change the height and width also… Creativity requires doing different Packaging styles…
But apart from that… really a WOW product!!!

Hej Vitaly,

it would be great to have a possibility to choose a picture for the Floor.

Hi Vitaly
Thanks for doing this upgrade! I was wondering, since you welcome ideas, whether it will be possible in the future releases of Box Shot 3D to include rulers – similar to Photoshop? I think this is a functionality which will benefit everyone. Just a thought. Cheers James
