Ken: Without actually seeing your animation, I can only guess as to the cause of the problem. My first thought is to thoroughly check out the sync on the entire system, even down to the cables being the same length and resistance as your RGB and PAL cables. Are you…
Nigel: Phone # for DiaQuest: (510) 526-7167 Berkeley, CA Greg Pyros
Gary: With MONEY? What about a firstborn? Arm and a leg? Good looks? Greg Pyros
Andy: We run QEMM very happily with 3DS, ACAD, Ani Pro, and Windows 3.0 / 3.1. They are all set up with the DosShell so users can pick the one they need. Relatively easy to set up, just go with the defaults. If you have a network, you might have…
Dear Industrial Street Prods: (how personal!) I agree totally! For more info, and a quick comparison, see message # 24764 about different formats and controllers for single frame animation. Greg Pyros
Ian: The first thing to try whenever an adi driver suddenly goes wacky is to delete the file called 3DADI.CFG in your 3DS directory. When you start 3DS the next time, it will ask you a few questions for configuration, and will usually fix the glitch (unless someone really tried…
John: Yes, single frame computer animation to video is a very difficult thing to research! We've been doing it over 5 years, and only within the last year can we consider ourselves anywhere near expert on the subject! There are actually 3 types of Diaquest controllers: Serial 422, Serial 232,…
Dave: Maybe I'm missing something on your question (nothing new for me!), but why are you trying to load a cel as a palette? Why can't you just load it as a cel and then adjust the pallette from there? Confused
Adrian: Yes, it is a great program! In order to help you, a little more information is required. What hardware are you running? Especially graphics card info. What about Rendering a flic? Or just Preview crashes? Can you View an already rendered flic? Welcome to software heaven! And maybe some…
Kevin: I can't believe all the messages I've received on my little speech the other day. Could we start an "I agree with Greg" movement? Ross Perot, move over! BTW, 100% of the messages were positive. Thanks for your support! Greg
Doug: Go for it! And I see you will be speaking at A/E/C Systems next year! Lucky for me I speak right before you, because I know what a tough act you are to follow! Greg Pyros
Grahame: Thanks for the info! I'll try to keep it in mind! And that's the first time I've been referred to as an honorary Brit! Bloody good! Greg
.. continued… is your local dealer. There are, of course, varying levels of quality there, but any one of them should be able to tell you how to save a CEL file in Animator Pro properly. Sorry for MY long tirade, but I just get frustrated at times listening (reading?)…
Ali: I just saw your flame against Animator Pro, and had to throw in my two cents. We are professional animators, creating computer animations for broadcast, film, and computer based playback. We run Windows and Ani Pro with the same configuration for our computers. If you cannot figure out how…

3DS Video Cards ?? 24bit
Message #24624
Steve: Lots of choices, lots of arguments! There are very few EISA cards out there that are worth the dough. We are running everything from a Diamond Stealth to a VRAM to a Genoa to an ATI 24 to an AT-VISTA. We are VERY happy with the Hercules Graphics Card…

.CGM to .GIF conversion
Message #24623
Chuck: I use my Diaquest software to rotoscope in frames from laser disk, which are saved in Targa format. I then convert them to GIF with piclab for other uses. So for me, it is a great file converter! I guess I just happen to use it for what it…

June: Hi there! I saw your cry for help on CompuServe. I have seen similar problems with some of my clients, the problem being a bad memory chip or SIMM. get yourself a program such as CheckIt or QA-Plus (diagnostics tools, both under $100) and do a RAM check. Also,…
