    Default file .ild on quickshow

    Hi, I need help in creating .ild file for SD laser display, I use quickshow 3.0 but there is no way to save in this format, can you tell me if there is any converter or SD laser device that reads files generated in quickshow?

    suppose you're thinkin' about a plate o' shrimp. Suddenly someone'll say, like, plate, or shrimp, or plate o' shrimp out of the blue, no explanation. No point in lookin' for one, either. It's all part of a cosmic unconciousness.

    Do you know of any software to edit and save .ild files?

    Just out of curiosity, is there any free software out there besides LaserBoy that lets one create ILDA frames?

    All software has a learning curve usually proportional to its capabilities and unique features. Pointing with a mouse is in no way easier than tapping a key.

    I think the designer edition (demo) of Ray Composer allows ILDA export too.

    Do you know if any of these others allow one to draw 3D objects?
