Jim, Thanks. I haven't had a chance to try it again. I'll give it a shot tommorow. How do you like the GVR? HH
Alan, I don't think so. I couldn't get it to do it today. Mysterious! HH
Alan, Thanks. I didn't think that was the case, since I was rendering the same scene that had only minutes before taken just over two minutes to render. Next time it happens I'll leave it alone for a while and see what happens. HH
#Renderer Hangs
Message #79321
Hello, I'm diligently working my way through the 3ds3 tutorials. While playing around with tutorial #2 (adding and changing lights, materials etc.) I rendered several scenes to the buffer when suddenly the renderer hung. I would choose Render View, then choose the Camera viewport. The "Rendering In Progress" box would…
#3ds & Sanyo GVRS-950
Message #78768
Hey ALL, Frustration!! Just when I think I'm getting CLOSE to getting close to getting the hang of 3ds3 (never used the product before) I gather up my courage and attempt to render to tape. My new GVRS-950 starts clicking away and I return 20 mins. later to find -…
3ds and Matrox MSRESET
Message #77861
Hey all, Okay, I've got 3ds up and running on the Matrox Studoio system – almost. There is a utility provided by Matrox – MSRESET.EXE – that is supposed to reconfigure the Matrox output for use with ADI devices. Supposedly, if you type MSRESET and then a series of swithces…
#3DSR3 and Matrox Studio
Message #77512
Hi ALL, Does anyone have any suggestions for loading 3DSR3 on a system configured to run Matrox Studio? We just received Matrox Studio and 3ds and all the Matrox manuals refer to release 2. The computer is a 486\66 designed by Matrox to run their software, but they claim that…
Brian, You hit it! That must be it. Thanks for the info. Harley
Install Problems
Message #75850
Hey, hey: When I try to install 3DS3 on my hardrive I get the first few screens of text explaining the install procedure. Then just before the screen which asks which drive to install to I get the following message: L:101 Syntax Error: "@DATXMSG" was not expected. Press the [Esc]…
Dave: Still waiting for 3ds to arrive at the office. It will probably be after Xmas before I get it up and running, but I can't wait. I always thought Rip Torn was a riot. Mr. G tells me you'll be up here this weekend, maybe I'll see you. Later,…
DAVE??!!?? As a displaced Southern in the Marine Corp once said, "Surprise, surprise, surprise!" There's no telling who you'll run into on this wonderful informational highway . Just what are you doing here? Do you work with 3ds? I have release 3 on order, and am trying to make a…
Martin, I think your right about video games being the golden egg. With so many new developments in video and computer technology, not to mention the exptremely strong and growing game market, you seem to be in a good position. I wish you the best. Be sure that you will…
I've hear Mario and Luigi are nothing compared to what Sonic the Hedgehog can do. How did you get started? Was it difficult finding clients? Having grown up in arcades and still addicted to computer games, the thought of game design sounds rather cool. Are you making a living? I…
Martin, Be careful what you say, I wouldn't want to the Nintendo hit squad paying you a visit. What kind of hardward do you have? Do you use any other software? HH
Martin, Laguna Beach? Sounds nice! Neither 3DS, the SVHS deck, or the loaded 486 to run it on has arrived yet. Believe me, when it does (and I get it up and running) you'll be seeing questions from me here a lot. I'm currently redesigning our editing-production room, so it…
Martin, "What areas are you interested in dabbling in?" All of them! Seriously, I come from an art/design background. Aside from flying logos and such that my department will want, I want to learn as much as I can. I'd like to convince my boss to purchase a Wacom tablet…
#3D Studio Books
Message #70673
Hello! I'm brand new to this forum. I work in the Media Department of a Mid-western college. After months of begging I finally convinced the higher-ups to buy 3D Studio. I'm still waiting for it to arrive, but in the meantime I'd like to get a head start. Can anyone…
