Looking for any reviews on this plug in. Looks like it would make my life much easier for building prototypes...has anyone purchased?

Any thoughts would help.

Thanks

Hi
Comnet had recently updated FoldUP 3D to made it compatible with Illustrator CS 5.

Not a new version, but it work fine for simple task.
You can fold your box project easy by selecting angle for each crease line, make a picture or a movie with it, or send the free viewer plugin to your customer to permit free preview, inside Illustartor, of the 3D model (with rotating and zoom tools)

It's simple, not expansive, but a little bit limited.

You can produce movie but with limited size.
Exporting pictures of your volume is possible but need a lot of memory...
Some creasing need to cheat to get the result, and some are impossible to do.

Otherwise the soft worth the price, for those who don't want to spend 2000 € in Studio from Esko
