Holy hell, that's a huge download. I wonder why the Mac version is only 35 MB but the Windows version is 216 MB. :(

Yeah, I've seen differences in sizes between Mac and Windows files before but it's usually not a 181 MB difference. I mean, it's the same demo, right?

Probably a major difference in what comes with it.

Pity you cannot use Internet cafe to download such things ... most use broad band now ..

Yeah, they tend to not want people to download files because there are people out there who would abuse that and download viruses and whatnot onto the computers. (bastards) It just ruins it for everyone else.

I don't even know if there's an internet cafe in my area anyway. Besides, if I tried the trial version of LW 9 I would probably really love it and want the not time limited version. Then I'd probably wind up crying in the corner because I can't afford it.

yeah there is that too .. I was luck as newtek had an offer for upgrading to LW8.3 but you could use other 3D software to upgrade from .

Awesome link I need to try it out. I still have not rendered anything in some time. I am so far behind in using lightwave, still on 5.6 that I have forgotten so much. None the less thanks for the link warrior.

Gotcha beat! My Lightwave is the Amiga Video Toaster version, on an Amiga 2500. :P

But I think I'll download this one and play with it. I recently talked to NewTek, and they told me that I can still upgrade my original version! :)

How cool is that?
