Harder, more powerful.

They call Blender "intuitive".

This I know, the community is much more alive... with 100,000+ users world wide and an active community... so you can ask questions when you get in a jam.

It's harder because it is not like a Windows program.... I am told it is more like a Linux program. ( I have never run Linux... so I don't know).

A good example:

Undo in blender is U.
Undo in everything else is CTRl+Z.

And in Blender, you have to be in "EDIT" mode to "undo"
It has so many modes, controls and fucntions..... well this is my first unit in six months.... and it took me applying myself for about 2 months to get this far.

I have a set-up, just need to get around to writing up the documentation for it, so people can use it. Took me about 2 weeks alone to get a lighting and camera set up that would match standard civ III units.
