Publisher's description
From Dylan De Hoedt :OpenFX is an Open-Source 3D modeling, animation, and rendering suite.A powerful feature-set includes a full renderer and raytrace engine, NURBS support, kinematics-based animation, morphing, and an extensive plug-in API. Plugin capabilities include image post processor effects such as lens flare, fog and depth of field. Animation effects such as explosions, waves and dissolves add enormously to the flexibility of the program.
Version 1.5 features new plugin animation effect for more realistic wave meshes for water modelling and new cubic environment mapping support and fixes miscular bugs.

Version: OpenFX 1.5
Pros: This is a well established program with a lively new users forum. There are a lot of clever tools in both the modeling and animation modules. A new version is due by the end of September. Openfx has full modeling, animation and rendering capability. The animation presets and postpro effects are great. Easy to use.
Cons: Looks slightly old fashioned.

Version: OpenFX 1.5
Pros: I recommend this software to anybody who wants to do 3D animations. It is very good software if you just want animation.
Cons: I don't think the quality is very good if you want to do really good animations. It won't work if you're trying to copy the 3D done in movies. To get that good to need to spend money.
Summary: Nice free software for a person that wants to do quick and easy medium-quality 3D animation. Not for people wanting to do really high quality 3D. Overall, very good software.
