Andrew, As mentioned by others, the plug-ins normally supplied with 3D Studio on the PC are provided by Autodesk for the SGI Renderer, *except* ccube.sxp, stucco.sxp and dots.axp. Third-party plug-ins would require porting to the SGI. Don't forget, though, that many IPAS routines affect the mesh or keyframes, and the results can still be rendered on the SGI. Certain .IXPs and such can still be used in a separate pass through Video Post (on the PC) after the SGI rendered images are complete. Kevin Krell – Computer Support Associates
