I bought Caligari-Truespace2-Bible when it was first published
Great book and fun to read!
It came with a Cd packed with goodies
I especially liked the Exploder plugin

There are a few books on TS and they are fairly good but old!
Bad part..they cost money!😉😆
Now comes the good part!
Some realy good books in 3D are free..probably some of the best stuff around!
So as to free programms or low budget...!
One is Dax Pahndis book on Vue..note he no longer uses the program but made his own program and guess what..its also free in basic version.. !
The book is valuable for everyone since Dax ist the best man on procedural material and landscape creation..period!
Valuable also for TS or Blender!
There are a lot of these goodies.. but start with those that will keep you busy for some time!

If you, or anyone, wants these TS manuals let me know. Free but you pay shipping. viewtopic.php?p=54836#p54836
