With my ongoing conversion to OSX I am now in need of a new 3D solution that will enable me to develop for both Unity3D and XNA (still cannot leave the MS grip), thus my initial thoughts are of Blender.

However whilst browsing some XNA resources I discovered that the guys over at Caligari have Released trueSpace 7.6 for Free download. All you have to do is register for an account, then download the software.

trueSpace7.6 is a fully-featured 3D authoring package that will let you model, texture, light, animate and render 3D content. As well as traditional images and movies, you can also make 3D content for online shared spaces, and for Virtual Earth.

An entirely re-written X format exporter lets you save your trueSpace creations to load into game engines such as XNA to develop games for Windows or the Xbox 360.

trueSpace also supports import from a wide variety of formats, letting you take existing objects and use them in Virtual Earth. Read..

Let me introduce you to my geeky side and also QR Code:

Although initially used for tracking parts in vehicle manufacturing, QR Codes are essentially 2D bar codes. I first came across them when I purchased my N95 and found the N95’s Barcode Scanner article over at Jason Bradbury’s blog.

If you got to this post by entering 010101010 into the search box then UBER KUDOS to you (your also a bit sad lol) otherwise you probably are wondering what the hell I am typing about so Ill explain.

Basically If you have a camera phone equipped with the correct reader software you can scan a QR Code produced image and obtain the data within, cool huh. Anyhoo take a look at the following image:
