Thanks for the reply Christophe and for straighteniing me out on the BCD / DPS thing!
I'd like to know the cost for getting my 3D Studio animations to tape with decent quality. Right now we're just playing back the flics and recording them on VHS with an AverKey. So how much does the BCD PAR cost, or what else should we be looking at? Also,…
Thanks Boran. I'll start by downloading the world viewer from the libraries. I'm very interested in learning about scripting and the high level functions built in to CDK. Maybe they'll be enough to get us started!
I'm posting this question for a client who is hoping to find a software product to create "Interactive Architectural Walk Throughs". He is currently using AutoCAD and 3D Studio to create renderings and animations, now he wants to give his clients the ability to "navigate" through the virtual environments. We…

Oops! You're right Jonas. Those are exactly the sort of thing I was thinking of. Thanks!

Thanks for your quick reply Jerry! You're right, I did a low level format on the hard drive. I guess that was totally un-necessary, all I really wanted to do was format the newly created partitions on my hard drive. >>What controller are you using for the hard drive? If…

I've really screwed up! I have an Amiga 2000 and have just formatted the hard drive. This was not done by accident but now I'm really in a jam, because the Amiga won't recognize my hard drive at all! I have tried using the HDToolBox on my install disk. I'm…
A request from an AutoCAD instructor at a local community college. He has a concern about students who might copy AutoCAD drawings from other students, and then hand them in as complete assignments. Has anyone else had to deal with this concern? What strategies would be helpful? His idea was…

Thanks for replying to my message regarding the CAD contest Pat. 1) Are we planning to run on equal platforms? Well, we have a lab of 486 computers loaded with AutoCAD which we plan to use for the competition. However, in order not to exclude anyone, we plan to permit…
