Callisto Publisher Description

Callisto is a plug-in for Adobe Photoshop that allows you to create terrains and spheroidal objects ("planets"), and also
import and render 3DMF models (3D models conforming to Apple's Quickdraw
3D standard).

The 3DMF-import capabilities afforded by Callisto are similar to those of the
commercial products Vertigo 3D Dizzy (by Vertigo Technology, Inc.) and
QuickSpace (by Plastic Thought). Using Callisto, you can quickly import any
3DMF model, manipulate it on the screen (swivel it on any axis, enlarge or reduce
it, etc.), and make adjustments to lighting and background before rendering it out
as a PICT file. Hitting the plug-in's OK button causes the rendered image to open
in a new Photoshop window automatically.

The terrain-making capabilities of Callisto allow you to convert any 2D image to a
"height map" or 3D terrain with full Phong shading and control over height. The
terrains you create can be swiveled, moved, enlarged/reduced, etc., just like any
3D model. Once you have set the positioning and lighting of your terrain just the
way you want it, you can hit the plug-in's OK button and have the final rendered
terrain appear in a new Photoshop window automatically.
