"Corel took my $50.00, and won't offer support!"
Version: Ulead Cool 3D 3.5
Pros
Awesome software if you're running XP!
Cons
Windows 7 wouldn't even read the disc. Corel says it will not install in Windows 7 64-bit, and Corel will not offer support. Their solution is to spend more money buying a more expensive Corel product.
Summary
Boycott Corel!
You can try this:
How to get it working under Windows 7 - 64bit.
To Install under Windows 7, you need to first acquire an outdated DirectX dll (d3drm.dll) that was not included with either Vista or Win 7. Win XP will have it in the \Windows\System32 folder. Once you have the dll copy it to the appropriate Windows 7 folder:
For 32bit: \Windows\System32\
For 64bit: \Windows\SysWOW64\
Reboot your system. Then you should be able to successfully install Cool 3D (the DLLs will now be able to register).
Modify the shortcut so that it is set for Windows XP (Service Pack 2) compatibility).
When prompted by the Program Compatibility Assistant when launching Cool 3D chose the Run Program option. -
"Would not install"
Version: Ulead Cool 3D 3.5
Pros
I have used ULead graphics products previously. It was my go-to graphics editor for lettered graphics. Simple, reliable.
Cons
I downloaded it twice, but it would not install either time. The error was that several of its own DLL files were not found. Not happy with that.
Summary
Wish I could try it, but it seems too buggy an install to work. Too bad. I used to like it a lot.

"Excellent program - Corel was insane to drop this one"
Version: Ulead Cool 3D 3.5
Pros
Very easy to generate 3D text in a wide variety of formats
Cons
Has been off support ever since it was purchased by Corel.
Cannot be installed in Windows 7 with out some help.Summary
I purchased this from Ulead back in 2003 and have been using it ever since. I have been running it under Windows XP until today (when I was able to get it working under Windows 7 - 64bit).
To Install under Windows 7, you need to first acquire an outdated DirectX dll (d3drm.dll) that was not included with either Vista or Win 7. Win XP will have it in the \Windows\System32 folder. Once you have the dll copy it to the appropriate Windows 7 folder:

That should do it.
Would sure be nice if Corel woult ressurect this awesome program and bring it forward with the times (or sell the rights to a company that will). -
"Unusable, did not work with Win7 64 bit"
Version: Ulead Cool 3D 3.5
Pros
I've used this program in this past and knew it was easy to use and would perform the task I needed.
Cons
I'm running Win7 64 bit and the installer doesn't play nice.

"Coreld destryed this"
Version: Ulead Cool 3D 3.5
Pros
This does not work for Windows 7. This is sabotage
Cons
Corel does not support eve for the people who purchsed this product. Please Boycot Corell
Summary
This is a wonderful product destroyed by Corel. It does not work for Windows 7

"Worst Product Ever"
Version: Ulead Cool 3D 3.5
Pros
Looks comprehensive
Cons
Slow!!! Opening a file simple took 100% of dual processor system for 2 minutes. Every action involved a redraw of the entire application. The lite version is snappy and useful but no timeline so not useful for more complex moves
Summary
Don't even bother downloading it. It's a dog.
It's a pity becuase it has the right feature set. -
