On this Throwback Thursday I give you Autodesk’s 3D Studio R1 for DOS from 1990. 3D Studio was the predecessor to the very popular Autodesk 3ds Max. This is from back when when 3D was for more difficult and primitive on old x86 PCs running DOS and you created everything in two steps using the Shaper and Lofter then rendered it. I have this old 3D Studio "carpet bag" package with all original disks. I think in those days we paid by the pound for software packaging, the more complex and expensive the software, the heavier the packaging had to be.

See the old 3D Studio in action on YouTube:
