I didn't have any problems with the memory, and no message concerning the Z-buffers. The only thing it told me was that it couldn't save the anim… Grady
Digitizing an entire tape of takes would be an incredible waste of time and disk space. Much better to decide what takes to keep as you go, and just digitize the ones you want to keep. You could always go back and get another take if you wanted…but you'll definately…
I had the same problem when I recently had to re-install the 3.1 update. I eventually gave up and reformatted the hard drive…found a bunch of errors using Quarterback Tools and decided to not try to fix them. After reformatting, 3.1 installed just fine. Grady
With 96MB free on the drive in question, I find it hard to believe that space limitations could be at issue. I agree that it is not caused by too much motion either, since it occurs before the first frame begins to render, and the logo is not present in…
I'll give you a call next week and we can set something up…sure you can bring a friend. Grady

Thank you for a thoughtful reply…I have, however, already solved the problem of access by purchasing CrossDos and mounting the drive as a PC drive. We are using a Warp Engine 040/40Mhz accelerator, and it does indeed come with a SCSI controller. The drive works just fine when mounted as…
Does the commercial version of CrossDos also include instructions for mounting the Bernoulli? I certainly won't mind getting it, but I'd like to know if I'm going to need more help afterward. Grady
#Bernoulli Box 150
Message #85099
We are using a Bernoulli Box 150 with our Toaster, as well as on our FAST Video machine (PC). I would like to be able to mount the PC cartridges on the Amiga side, so as to transfer anim files, etc. Anybody out there doing this? If anyone can explain…
Steve From your message I infer that you had something to do with the book "Inside 3D Studio". I have "3D Studio Applied", and would like information on how I can get your book as well. Thanks…. Grady
