So let me talk about This new version, which is entirely different from the earlier versions. For one thing it now runs in the background should you choose to. You have more control over the sun (the source of light here on these worlds) and now you can turn it off visually though it still lights the scene it is able to be invisible in the scenes sky. The presets are, like they say, a really easy source of being able to create "right out of the box". If you started with JUST ONE WORLD from the presets and started making artwork, by this time next year, if you made 3 or 4 pictures a day, you might have explored ONE TENTH of that world and there are literally hundred of worlds to explore.. Well you can imagine just how long it would take to run out of NEW stuff to explore and create pictures with... secondly, since it is non polygonal and is fractal based and the textures are procedural, no matter how far away or how close you get, you have crisp super detailed images.. not blurred out, DULL images like a lot of world making programs...

If you also purchase the Artmatic Pro Application as well you can make your own worlds, skies, clouds, textures, surfaces and what have you... this greatly increases your ability to create new and visually stunning worlds of your own from scratch..oh, and did I say that it has some of the finest water effects anywhere?? Both of these either seperately or together make some magnificent artwork...

Now lets talk about the support for these programs.. They have not only some of the quickest replies to problems where they help you till you get it right but also a uilist user group on the net for any kind of help you need .. from simple questions like how do I get a certain shadow technique to why does my program act like this and what do I do to fix it..they REALLY work with you on this stuff and you definitely get the feeling these guys want you to be happy with their software.. Not just blow you off after they get your money.. Another plus is that it is MADE just for Mac users... It is MAC ONLY and they don't even plan to make a PC version.. They use mac and they program for mac so it isn't just a PC program ported over but a TRUE native mac program. I bought this program many years ago and have upgraded to the latest version.. In all of those years I have never been sorry I got this program and along with Poser make up a large percentage of my art work. It's one of those programs that is easy to get hooked on and the kind that right after you get it your wife starts getting jealous of your spending so much time doing it..just plain old addictive...

I have seen programs come up here and seen people raving about the application and thought to myself, hey, these guys must be working with the people that make this program or they are getting some kind of kickback for the hype they put into the feedback.... WELL, I can assure you that the ONLY reason I am so excited and am willing to say ALL of this stuff is because this app is just plain AWESOME and I have had so much pleasure with mine.. If you buy this program, it WON'T be one that you wish you hadn't bought the day after you get it.. You will be on one of the art gallery sites raving about how much you love your Voyager program and proud about the picture you just made.. I have seen that happen to people over and over and over again so I KNOW..

You can DO what you want but the ones that get this.. just wait and see if I'm lyin' or not...
