The Macintosh version is supposed to come in a month or so... News Release   Swift3D; maybe not so smart Swift 3D is supposed to allow the creation of 3D imagery within Macromedia Flash software. The product will be unveiled at Flashforward2000 conference at the end of March. It will be Windows only, through a Mac version is "to follow." At the moment even their website is Windows only. When I went there using a Macintosh and IE 4.0 (and Flash 4 installed) I was deposited at a page that told me I needed a 4.0 Browser and Flash 4.0. Couldn't go any further, and couldn't find out anything more. www.swift3d.com   Looking for a video server?
