James-
Thanks for the info on unthreading. Until R2 I had no way of going direct
to tape anyways (I use a BCD 5000) so I really didn't look into the Park
stuff at all. I've always gone to tape directly from disk. Does Park just
move the tape to a blank spot and leave the heads down?
I feel for you with your 2D animation. Now that R2 is here with all of
its wonderful stuff, I find myself doing 3 20sec. cartoon animations by
hand. Where's Walt D. when you need him? I'm curious about the best
methods you've found for using AniPro for 2D stuff. It's easier for me to
sketch characters with a pencil than to draw on the screen so I've been
scanning the cels in and using AAPro for cleanup, inking, painting, and
positioning. I too am using T+ for output (756×486). I've been creating
the animations 800×600 and letting flitape squash em down. It seems to be
working OK. Any better ideas. Also, I still have trouble with aliasing in
AAPro. Soften and UnBuzz make my lines too thick. Any suggestions there.
I'll be glad when this is over so I can get back to playing with R2.
