- Lightwave
- Frames
- Frames are the basic part of an animation, each frame is played in rapid succession.
- Buttons
- I'm assuming that buttons means hotkeys, Lightwave has many hotkeys, which are a selection of keys or combinations of keys on the keyboard that allow for much easier access of tools.
- The advantages of this are that you can access all the tools you need much faster.
- The disadvantage of this is that if you press the wrong hotkey then you might use the wrong tool by accident.

- Layers
- Lightwave is a 3D animation software and thus does not use layers, instead each animation is made in a stop-motion fashion where everything in each frame has to come from somewhere or will have to be added manually
- 3D Printing
- Lightwave has a feature built-in that allows for any models created in Lightwave to be printed out using a 3D printer
- The advantage this brings is that any model that is wanted in physical form can be easily printed out, E.g. for demonstration purposes
- The disadvantage this brings is that 3D printers cost a lot, meaning that this feature is useless unless it is for a business venture or if you have excessive amounts of money.

- Scripting
- Lightwave uses a C code class for it's scripting, this ia a very commonly known coding language
- The advantages of using this C code are that the newer tools can make it a lot easier to use the software and allow the community to have an affect on how the product is developed
- Lightwave's most recent update allows for the use of the python coding language for the custom tools.
- Python is a well known coding language and in doing this the developers have allowed for even more people in the community to be able to create their own tools.
- Lightwave uses a C code class for it's scripting, this ia a very commonly known coding language
- Hypervoxels
- Hypervoxels are used to render smaller animation features.
- The advantages this brings are that hypervoxels can help improve the quality of water animations and the detail on the smaller sprites
- the disadvantage this brings is that hypervoxels can be difficult to set up properly.
- Hypervoxels are used to render smaller animation features.
