Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This screensaver turns your PC into a cozy fireside scene, though the demo's rather disruptive nag screen might leave some users with a chilly feeling. Upon launch, you'll see a very realistic fire crackling inside a hearth. As the camera pans in, out, and all around the room, you'll be able to make out other details, such as the clock and other items on the mantelpiece. In particular, we liked the lifelike way the blazing fire casts light around corners of the room. The sound effects and calming piano-based soundtrack fit the program's overall mood like a glove, but you can turn either of them down if you choose. Other customization options include the ability to adjust the gamma; enable glow and desaturation; and choose among a few cameras with adjustable delay. Unfortunately, a large nag screen shows up after one minute and won't go away, putting a serious damper on Spirit of Fire 3D Screensaver. We also should note the application consumes a considerable amount of PC resources, so users with older machines may experience hiccups. In spite of our grumbles, this screensaver still offers enough positives to make it worth considering, particularly during the cold winter months.Publisher's description
From 3Planesoft :Spirit of Fire is a fine 3D screensaver that will bring warm and cozy atmosphere of a fireplace burning in a log cabin right inside your office or home. The fire and the fireplace are done remarkably well - the crackling sounds of burning wood, the blinking light, the shadows. Camera moves around the cabin periodically zooming in and out allowing you to see parts of the interior. Great attention is paid to details.

Version: Spirit of Fire 3D Screensaver 2.4
"very pleasant and customizable, especially good for winter"
Pros: very attractive, the graphics are very good, the music is really pleasant if you want to hear it and you can chose a photograph of yours to put over the fireplace near the clock. I bought this and seven others from 3planesoft, all worth the small expense in my opinion and the more u buy the less they cost
Cons: only thing.... looking at it in summer makes u feel too warm
