Way back in the late 1990’s or early 2000’s I created some installation manuals for a line of industrial monitors called the BeeHive series. These were built primarily in Macromedia Flash and a free 3D modelling animation tool called Anim8or.
I think I may have also used Swift 3D. I am pretty sure Swift was a 3D tool for converting 3D models into SWF files. I used it to more easily get the wireframe look I needed without the wireframes being the vectors of the actual 3D models. Anim8or used box modelling by default so it lent itself well.
