Hello,

We are in the process of evaluating tools for building
real time polygonal models and terrain databases. We
have been evaluating MultiGen, Corypheaus, and Terrex
products. We have seen the demos, talked to the sales
and technical reps. What we want is some feedback from
the community on your opinion of these tools such as
easy of use, functionality, cost, performance, capability,
support, future outlook, etc..

We develop real time 3D applications with terrain database
data from NIMA. We need to build several terrains with
cultural feature, imagery, etc. as well as models with
behaviors/articulations. Some of our applications are
DIS based and some not. A CTDB conversion tool is an
added bonus. We use Performer 2.1 and 2.2 and
OpenGVS. Applications will be developed on SGI platforms
Onyx2 IR to O2, and possible port to the PC via OpenGVS.
