Finally a Dream

I lost count how many times I threw the Ray Dream manual out of my office in a fit of rage because it was so poorly written and arse backwards. I then decided to do a little research on the internet and I was so relieved to find I really was not an idiot and that others had the same problem with the manual too.....thus I was directed to two great books. One was the Visual Quick start and the other a Handbook by John Sledd. I picked them both up and thumbed through them both and instantly realised that I would need to go the Quickstart way first.......OH TRUE BLISS......no more fits or rage and tears...this book was great for an absolute beginner in the world of 3d......this then made the transition to John Sledd's handbook painless.

A great reference and painkiller for novices.

When I started using Ray Dream studio, I became quite discouraged with the manuel the software came with. Visual Quickstart helped me to get through the basics of raydream, but it still has left me with some unanswered questions. I do recommend this book to beginners, although the authors are far from becoming engaging writers. If only Kurt Vonnegut was into this stuff. The guide (as they say) is inexpensive, and it can provide the novice with a basic understanding of how Raydream Studio works. I would definitely be lost without it.

It is very informative,and a must have for beginers

I just bought the book today, it is worth the price. Its easier to read than the manual, and gives you enough information about each section of the program. better than the tutorials provided in the manual.
