Many Screensavers is a simple show of pictures even if they are named 3D. Age of Dinosaurs is a full 3D Screen Saver that uses New 3D technologies. You move around a high realistic 3D World of prehistoric animals watching the life stages of Dinosaurs. The World has the animated time of day. You watch as the night engulfs these amazing reptiles. You can look at dinosaurs like Tyrannosaurus Rex, Stegosaurus, Brachiosaurus, and Pteranodon. While, accelerator is not needed, if you have it like 3Dfx Voodoo, the graphics is amazing. If you have a sound card, you can hear full 3d sounds of dinosaurs. Four speakers are supported. The program uses the password protection to guard your computer when you are absent. The Screen saver can show a current date, time or FPS.
IMPORTANT! If you have Age of Dinosaurs 3D not from our web page, but from the other source (magazine CD or some software library), please visit our home page - you will probably find the later version.
