3DMagix: Just Blender renamed
Apparently some silly guy is trying to make fast money by selling the open source and free 3D-software package Blender. He’s using the name 3DMagix, which is a pretty dumb name. The site doesn’t look to reassuring to me, but there are lots of people (some i am ashamed to call ‘close relatives’) who would gladly fall for this kind of ‘best deal’ offers. So, be warned: If you want to check out some nice and really(!) free 3d modelling, animation, texturing and video editing software (and yet some), head over to Blender.org and download it for free without having to register or give out your credit card number.. Thanks to Blendernation for the heads-up.
Here are some screen captures of the site (perhaps the creator wants to sue me?
Thanks for the useful info. It’s so interesting
Yearh, I should be ashamed.
Thank you for the heads up. I’ve noticed a pattern of people doing this with some other open source tools. I think as a rule, everyone should check and double check for an open source solution – for any software. I do appreciate you mentioning this. Thank you!
