Should work great, but I would get more Ram, 128MB or 64Mb's would be good and more Hd space a 2GB hd Should be a Min. I personaly don't care for Soundblaster cards I use a Pro Audio Studio, you can hear the difference in sound quality. I don't use…
Why buy a 486 and fill it up with ram when you can buy a dx4 or P60 and render faster? The Cpu's are Cheap compared to 64Megs of ram. So why spend money on Ram then put it into a 486 when P60's are almost a cheap and faster…

Message #104801
Oh my I belive I am having a slight problem with 3ds. Every time I load a shape or Dxf in the shaper assign a shape and get it from the lofter and try to zoom extent the computer locks up. It might be a small problem and I am…
What is the file size limit on Nic? I tryed to compress a 20 meg flic and it said to call New Age, did I max it out or is it a color pallett problem, I'm not sure I used a single pallett.
I think a special IPAS3 for mapping would be great
I have a friend with one, but I have never seen them side by side. My other computer Monitor is a Mag innovision 15 inch I guess it's fair. I have always run 3ds on the Nec and at times I wish it were bigger.
The Idek is a good monitor for the price . But I,ll keep my 5fg.

viper PCI and Qemm 7.03 X=b000-b100 and of it works fine one my system I think you can change the Rom address on the Viper card buy I not sure.
I think that the matrox studio can do that I remember about 2 years I went to a demo and one of the neat things that sticks in my mind was that you didn't have to lay to sound down first as an editor typicaly does because you could change(scale)…
They told me the software was done for the MAX and now everyone was back working on stuff for the Animation Commander.

Message #99497
I would not recomend trying to learn AutoCad and 3ds at the same time, try to learn 3ds and then a 2D cad program like Generic cad first. You will find the same concepts in AutoCad and any other cad type program but 3ds has the most powerful tools for…
John, I have been in contact with Drastic about new software for My animation comander board for EVO suport at the time everyone was working on the MAX stuff. the last time I spoke with them they said all the MAX software was done and the software I need should…
I think you can get NDIS for lantastic 5 for free in the Lantastic fourm if that will help you but it will slow your ethernet down quite a bit.
Yea I know Mike and everyone else there except for Sells Reps, there is a revolving door on that office.
Timothy: I have heard of the group but have not had time to make it to a meeting yet, I'll be out soon I hope. I am still down stairs in the Drafting Labs using Gen Cad at Erwin, I'll be upstairs in the CAD lab next quin. I have…

I would be interested, I live in Tampa and go to School at Erwin Votec. for ACAD training. I own and use 3ds and a local 3ds BBs would be great but I don't think I could make it to Orlando for meetings.

Did you ever get your mouse + alt key problem fixed? I have been very busy and have'nt had an op. to get back to you.
YES, art is a reflection of society and does not shape it .
The content is fine with me, its just a game. I heard that congress was giving sega a hard time about some of their games, this really ticks me off, I think WE have bigger problems to deal with then the "effects" of video games on people. Besides I don't…

#Prohance mouse
Message #88065
ED: I have a prohance mouse and can solve your problem, the mouse is set up so a key combo of alt+lmouse can be programed to do somthing else. You should make a new KDT file for 3ds, under the Lmouse and Rmouse you must tell it that the combo…
Chris: PCI is faster then VLB, VBL is faster then EISA, EISA is faster then ISA This is just a simple way to look at it and alot depends on the type of cards used(ie bus mastering). ISA slots take only ISA 8/16 bit cards EISA slots take EISA and…
Martin; I have the shareware DOOM and have played it on my net(real cool) but I can't get the sound to work on my Pentium/Studio 16 machine, needless to say the check is in the mail for the mail order version. Have you tryed Falcon 3 on a net ?,…

John: I fixed the set file and now it works fine TADA. thanks for all your help, maybe someday I can return the favor.
I checked my set file and the line for use buffers says at the end (no=0)nocfg please check on the proper syntax for me as I still can't get it to work. Thanks

So if I ordered the whole Shabang now,the IXP's shoud be done soon and I would get the New Improved versions free of charge? I was under the impression that the 1st set of IPAS were not improved for the new(R3) enhancements yet.
how about "In The Heat of The Studio".
I was just having fun, wondering how much info Autodesk would release about it's licensed users.
Will your old IPAS Disks be revised? I need to know so I can buy them all now or wait for newer versions, is there an upgrade path? or do you think all old IPAS will be revised with the new SDK?

ME TOO! I can't remember the number of times I started watching them just to wake up two hours later looking at a snowy screen. The tapes are chock full o info, but I was looking for some more advanced help, like someone to show me how to build complex…
John: I lost my head after he danger danger message, and forgot to coment on the glitches, they were on the ME recording so maybe the tape caused it. I have used reg. 8mm MP with no problem at all and wanted to do some "real quality" stuff on Hi8…
