Taking animation one step further are the twelve different object effects and three transition effects. As an example, Jump will allow one object to jump onto another object as they transition. If you were to try these types of effects in most 3D programs, it would take many hours to get what you want. In typical Cool 3D fashion, these effects are added using drag and drop. Another great effect, Explosion, lets you blast your object into tiny pieces.
Fire sets the objects ablaze.
Put them together and the object can blow up and then the tiny pieces can catch on fire. With all these great effects, you just have to use them carefully so that you don't go overboard. It's easy to export to JPG, GIF and animated GIF for the Web with plenty of options for optimizing the files. New in v3 is the support for RealText 3D format. If video is your thing, there is support for AVI and QuickTime format.
