Description:
So 3DNA is...
a 3D desktop for Windows! The 3DNA Desktop is an
innovative new Windows interface that transforms the current 2D desktop into a
complete 3D environment similar to Quake3 or Unreal.
The 3DNA Desktop is 3D user interface that
enhances and improves the way you work with Windows and the Web. 3DNA is not a
replacement for Windows - it works seamlessly with your current set up, while
giving you a much better way to use your computer.
Now we will discuss more 3DNA Functions, Features and so much more...
1) 3DNA is partly a fully-functional change for the usual Windows desktop. This is only a pre-release version so we can count that the program is not fully finished. But it can be commonly used by beginners (for sure!) and partly advanced users. So the area that the program will take in software is quite peculiar: 3D Desktop Software. These programs are not common now but I think that they (3DNA at first) is an evolution in the world of 3D Graphics. That how its kinda slogan sounds:
" 3DNA - Let the Evolution Begin ! "
The Desktop is shown like a fully-functional 3D Game - you can touch and view almost anything there !!!
All the categories can be set up by you and like you prefer.
1) The whole world of the program is quite attractive and simple to view and use.
This bad quality screenshot can only show a small part of the whole graphics interface available in this game!
2) The interface and the plot of the program divides this game into several areas:
Applications: here you can control most (or even all) of your applications and programs through the shortcuts system (I found a bug here - games load their special dynamic libraries that were not adapted for 3DNA running...so if you try to load games or something else from 3DNA you will experience fatal errors so these programs won't run :-((( ). This all seems quite attractive as they try to show it all in the 3D edging. There are some common 3D icons ( can be set up) put on the 3D Desktop. For example, Outlook Express, Internet Explorer, Media Players, Notepad, Speakers Systems. You can also put some extra folder icons under the desktop as kinda libraries and archives. Finally, applications is the main and the most advanced area of the 3DNA world. This area is the first to be set up if using 3DNA.
Browser: This, in my opinion, is the second most important area in the world of 3DNA. This function is actually quite useful. There's a 3D Browser available for you (Internet Explorer becomes more functional in 3DNA)! You can create special shortcuts to Web Pages so they will be funnily shown in 3D. 3DNA automatically opens IE Browser but the effect is quite impressionable. ( I haven't "finished" this area yet :-))) )
Media Links: this is the extra area of 3DNA developers (can not be changed!). This includes media links: About 3DNA itself and its components (worlds, environment objects...),Sites (Web pages recommended by Gigex), Games Advertisements, Sports games links, Movies links and other vendor's stuff.
Miscellaneous: In this category I decided to include the main function-generator of 3DNA - 'Options' area. This is actually a small tower in the middle of your world that can be shown/hidden. You can change its positions and choose different options :mouse, audio (you can set up your own music playing during the time you use 3DNA!), world options... You can find many useful things there - 3DNA even offers its unique 3D Screensaver - it shows the 3DNA moving like you do but by default !!! This is quite attractive.
Games: I decided to put it in the separate category...Games category can be run clicking on the round circle-button that is 'E' (abb. from Electro Ball - the name of the game) and is situated among the other buttons near the main name of each area. So Electro Ball is a fully animated 3D Game that has a simple plot and objectives, a couple of modes and several levels. You playing through the turning ball in the 3D Maze. The objective is to find special 'Units' and coins (to upper your score points) in the maze. After you find the special amount of levels (different for each level) you get a 100% protection and shield to destroy "enemy" structures tracing you .. when you destroy them you win the level and get to the harder one. There are special bumpers and other 3D effects that make the game more fascinating.

PC Helper Opinion:
"Let the Evolution Begin !" - this is my option: 3DNA is a real evolutional and really great program !!! Beautiful interface and 3D Graphics and perfectly compiled 3D Structures are the main advantages of the game that make it probably the best ever reviewed in the PC Helper Lab. These peculiarities make this program unique and very impressionable.
