The program has been written to primarily interface with the Persistance of Vision raytracer (POV-Ray version 2.0 & 3.0), there is also support to export to a number of other popular renderers including Pixars's RenderMan. Features - Modelling primitives; cube, sphere, cone, cylinder, torus, bicubic, Bezier patches - Text objects using TrueType fonts - Heightfields, spline paths and extruded shapes - Iso-surfaces; blobs (metaballs) - Surfaces of revolution (sweeps) - Multiple model views and zoom factors - Inbuilt texture builder - Inbuilt shaded preview - Object grouping with CSG support - Keyframe animation support, with tween function and spline paths - Transition position, scale and rotation between frames - Import Autodesk 3D-Studio 3DS format models - Import AutoCAD 2D and 3D DXF files - Export POV Raytracer, RenderMan RIB, VRML scene, Polyray, AutoCAD DXF - Inbuilt in macro language - Third party plug-in module support - Render and view from within program - No program limit to the number of objects - Support for OpenGL with texture mapping for Windows NT & Windows 95 - Support for the Intel 3DR rendering library - On-line help & tool tips support System Requirements This program requires at minimum a 386 with co-processor, and 8 megabytes of RAM, running Windows NT 3.5 or later, Windows 95 or Win32s 1.3 or later. It is recommended to use a Pentium-based PC with 16 megabytes of RAM or 24 megabytes of RAM for Windows NT, with a display adapter using 256 colour or greater video mode.

The sample textures are used to provide on-screen previews for texture selection. The Intel 3DR interface is provided as an option, aside from OpenGL for generating a shaded model preview within Breeze Designer.
