Project output

Ulead COOL 3D offers you a wide range of possibilities on how you can output your project.
With its features, you can choose to either use your project on a Web page, in a video, or simply
as a graphical element on a document.

Saving your project

When you have finished editing your work, you can save it in the Ulead COOL 3D format
(*.c3d). You can reopen the project for further editing and revision. If you want to output your
project as an image, Web animation, or video file, take a look at the following pages for more
information.

Export Video Overlay

Using Alpha Channels is one of the most effective ways of creating transparent overlays. An
alpha channel allows you to block out an entire image except the 3D object.
A TGA file supports Alpha channel
transparency. Click File: Export Video
Overlay- TGA to launch a dialog box where
you can save your project as TGA file which
you can use as a video overlay.
Click File: Export Video Overlay- AVI to
launch a dialog box where you can save your
project as an AVI file. This can be used to
superimpose your projects while retaining
your background.

Export 3D Models

Exporting COOL 3D objects as Direct X (*.X) and 3D (*.3DS) file formats enables you to use
them in other modeling/animation programs. See Import 3D Models in page 21.
