- this simple full-cycle software is pretty low-tech but made with oldschool hard-steel-concre-solid thorough approach, like watcom compiler, you know -- very-very lightweight for resources (i think it probably can work on 486 with 16 mb ram ), contain detailed _offline_not_web-based_documentation_ with description of all menus and buttons, pack of models, textures and example scenes, made with care, but has no much possibilities, needed by default in real work.
