Thanks for the response, Peter. Are there any particular vendors you recommend? Also, what is the difference between a PAR and PVR? What is the price difference? Thanks again. JB
I'm looking for a system which will be used as a 3DS/3DS MAX graphic workstation with a PAR. Hoping to get a bundled system no more than $10,000, excluding software- to purchase probably first of the year. The system will be used to produce animations and also to demo projects…
#Space: Above & Beyond Message #193448
Just curious, I just saw the new series on FOX called Space: Above & Beyond. I was looking at the special effects and animations and I didn't think they were Lightwave. Does anyone know if they were done by 3DS. I saw a Digimation clip on one of their demo…
