Hi John: I finally finished replacing my hard drives, and placing ALL my work on-line (well, almost, one drive is removable and I have to power down to swap). I decided I had to do something when I started to work on the waterfall (for SigGraph). Every time I needed one of my old animations, I had to get it from tape. Not very conducive to being creative! < He might be willing to do it on a contractual basis > Thanks for the plug (I can use the work). << an hour to process the boxes for 70 frames and another 38 mins or so to render them, so figure about 2 mins a frame all told. Very fast IMO. That's below par for a typical animation. >> <<with KeyFactory couple of thousand objects its taken 4 to 6 hours to build all the keys>>. Thanks for the info John, I was wondering what a Pentium could do. (I have a 486-66). Ed K
