Short description
PPC rendering translator for Lightwave Amiga
Proposed name
TransWave PPC
Full description
This is a program that grabs the rendering commands from Lightwave 3.x and above for the Amiga and uses the Power PC to do the actual rendering. It will make the Amiga with a Power PC card an excellent investment for rendering farms, etc.

This posts reminds me of the times when Lightwave was still used and supported by amiga users... sigh Of course render farms using amigas belong to science-fiction nowadays... but recently a new renderer has appeared : Kray, it has a lot of features which are common with lightwave : loading of LWO objects (I think scene loading is a project), radiosity, subsurface scattering. It still lacks a GUI, but it is very promising. http://www.kray.prv.pl/
