WinUAE: OS-Distribution Amikit, including Opus Magellan 2
Amikit is another complete distribution for WinUAE users, similar to AIAB or AmigaSys. As a highlight, the package includes a completely functional trial version of the well-known file manager Directory Opus Magellan. Windows as well as WinUAE with an existing AmigaOS installation are required.
Note: The trial version of Opus Magellan 2 is not registered, i.e. there is an "annoying requester" to acknowledge when starting, moreover, the program start is delayed for 10 seconds.

Example-Project: Skeletal animation with Blender
Carsten Siegner has created a small animation for the raytracer Blender, which demonstrates the insertion of skeletal animations in a real scene. In doing so, the so-called shadow objects are used as well, meaning objects that are not depicted themselves, but rather, only cast a shadow. With shadow objects, you can furnish every 3D object in a real scene with shadows.
