<Is WATRFALL.ZIP part of TSE, Ed?> Yes. And it should be easy to modify (but perhaps you should get someone else's opinion on that <g>.) <you were promising a particle system script> Blame "the root of all evil" <g>. I had intended to upload two versions of "A Simple Particle System." The version for beginners, I used in an article I sold to "Planet Studio" (the article may not be used in the next issue). I am not sure what I'll do with the other version. <how important was AniPro to the creation of that effect? > I am just starting to explore 3ds and finding out that it can do many of the tasks I do with AniPro better. For the water animation I probably could have used the video post (haven't tried), and ended up with better antialiasing. (I used AniPro to "increase" the number of particles by combining several time-shifted copies of the original animation with itself.) < I hope KUB is at least paying you royalties or something — you've certainly deserve them! … I'm leaning heavily towards getting TSE, solely based on the work you've done.> Thanks! My contract with KUB ended after creating four sample scripts. Comments like yours help ensure that Martin will want me to work for him again. Ed K
