Michael, You can't seriously mean that, do you? What about us desperate users overseas, that are looking for help and don't have access to the internet or AOL? I agree thAt CI$ has some strange ways to handle things, but I am most glad that via Ci$ I have the…
#3479 #AM IMPROVEMENT Message #3501
From: Hanspeter Ludwig Animation Vendor A Forum · Hash, Inc. January 25, 1995 1:16 PM
Hi Jim, Basically you are right. A:M is tremendous, I would not change it for anything else and I have worked even with Alias. People keep telling me I'm crazy when I tell them that I wouldn't even think about changing to the other system… BUT A:M *has* its problems.…

Hi Jim, Here is our basic problem again: "The basic problem seems to be that transparency factors are *added*, where they should probably be *averaged out*. Here is an example: a white, 80 % transparent segment is placed partially in front of a black background and partially in front of…

Hi Pawel, (I've been reading your and Jim Jonah's messages to other users for some time now and boy,I wish I'd new A:M as good as you guys do) well, you are right about the render quality. You *can* get highly realistic textures if you need them – if you…

Hi Steve, Happy new year, I just wanted to let you know, that with Version 2.07 most of our problems are gone. The following in not ment to hurt anybodys feelings it is rather a wishlist and from what I've read and heard about version 3 some of the things…
#A:M Update arrived Message #1229
From: Hanspeter Ludwig Animation Vendor A Forum · Hash, Inc. October 14, 1994 12:58 PM
Hi Steve, I thing I've forgotten to thank you for the Update. I'll do that now: "Thanks a lot!" (G) I've worked only a couple of minutes with it since I recieved the update (too much boring "regular" artwork and stuff like that) but the major bug I've had in…

Steve, I've just gotten message from Jenee Burns, that my file "Dungeo.sit" is available now at the library 14 of the graphdev Forum. Maybe you can find it in the "raytrace animation" library. Get it and tell me what you think. On the model of the girl I used "Decal"…

Hi Steve, I'm really hurting for the new Renderer now. When do you think will the update get here. Right now I can give all the available RAM to Render and it will not do more than 9 or 10 Frames. Sometimes Render doesn't even do that, even within the…

Hi There Yeaaah! Finally! I was really exited when I first saw you on CI$! Heck, that's what I was waiting for! I've been going on Ken's nerves via AppleLink for quite a while (sorry for that (g)). There might be some more ideas on problem-sollution available now. My main…
