IPAS source in UK?
Message #186895
Can someone tell me why we (here in the UK) have to wait ages to get hold of the new IPAS routines. Schrieber are the only distributers i know of over here, and they dont seem to carry everything. I am sure that companies like Digimation would benefit greatly by…

Problems $FLIW1$.tmp
Message #171166
Help, I have always been able to create animations without any problems. However for some unknown reason I now get a message which says " Cannot create $FLIW1$.tmp". This occurs right after 3DS has encoded the 256 colour image. The drive has plenty of space, so its not that. If…

Can someone please tell me how I can get hold of RAYMAN in the UK. I thought Schrieber may have handled it, but no one there knows anything about it. Thanks Chris…. Image Stream

Thanks I thought I had looked already, however I`ll look again :-]
#Networking
Message #129229
Help, We currently have two machines networked with the intention of adding more. We use a Pentium 90 as the server (As far as 3D studio is concerned anyway) and a DX4 100 as a slave. We are able to boot the DX4 remotely and is is configured to map…

Message #126097
Aaron, could you pass on an address for Digimation as I am interested in the IPAS routines and would like some more info. I know that here in the UK Schreiber handle a lot of IPAS stuff, do they do Digimation products ? Thanks Chris
Thanks for the prompt reply Aaron.
Thanks Greg !
#EyeBrowse
Message #124743
I recently downloaded the Eyebrowse IPAS, however when I try to use it the Mouse seems to be attached to the Top Left hand corner of the screen with elastic and I have to reset the machine to exit. Does anyone have any suggestions ? Chris
#RAYMAN
Message #124396
Could anyone tell me What RAYMAN is and how I could get hold of it ?. (I do know its a ray tracing package, but does it operate from within 3D studio or is it stand alone?)
Chuck, as a matter of interest, does Liquid Speed decrease the time taken to display selected items. In a large scene, where the objects are complex, even selecting one object can take some time to redraw each Viewport.
Oh ! :-O Chris
Jeff, if its redraw speeds in 3D studio your after , you might look out for a product called Liquid Speed available from Vibrant. Although I have yet to try it out, it apparently increases the Editor & Keyframer redraws by 50%. It also costs about L195 . ( I…
#Playmation Registration
Message #552
I bought Playmation when it was first released in England, and duly sent off my registration card. Since then I have heard nothing. Is this common? I also use 3D studio on a regular basis for most of my graphic & animation work. Then one day I remembered the Dusty…
Jeff, please don`t let me put you off the card. Especially if you intend to use it for Windows. The card is an excellent product, with ATI`s usual care and attention to detail as far as the manuals & packaging. It is also one of the fastest cards i have…
Gus Thanks for the info, I`m not sure I understand your answer. The problem as I see it being a "non geek" is that ATI say its not their problem and you say its not strictly the Vibrant drivers ( the first delay anyway ). All I need is a…
It would be a trivial program to write for any IPAS developer who has our Viewer library (in DL17), but it would only work with r4, because of API support for Unhide in r4 but not r3, I think. (You'd have to check with Jonas for details about that.) -…
#View Hidden IPAS
Message #120521
How about someone creating a Viewer IPAS connected to the Unhide requester which would display a Wireframe view of the selected object. This would be very useful to me as I always forget what I have called various objects. When there are a lot of objects in the scene it…
Jeff, I did get a response from the same message left for ATI which explains why it happens, but not really what they intend to do about it. We Will see. See Below. The current drivers for 3D Studio 3.0 are VESA drivers, they are not mach64 specific and do…

Thanks Lucas, I thought it may hay been my machines.
#Vibrant Drivers
Message #120084
I have just purchased the New ATI Mach 64 VL Graphics Card. The latest Vibrant drivers support the card directly. However when changing from the 3d Editor (800*600 *256) to the Materials Editor or rendered images (640*480 *16M) there is a pause of about 4 seconds. Has anyone else come…
#REAL GLASS ?
Message #63786
HELP !! All I want to do is create real glass in 3ds, you know the stuff. Like when its a sphere it distorts the background and when its lens shaped it magnifies. I`m pulling my hair out (hurry I don`t have much left) Can YOU help ?
