Hi John! >>Been awhile since we've shared a thread or two. 🙂 Yes, I was very busy in the last weeks. I only had time to read messages but not to write anything rich in meaning <g>. I`ll upload a little piece of my work in the next days. Look out for "raytraced animation". It`s a very realistic piece. I love realistic things, that`s my "stile of art". If I had a wish I would like to have the feature of external shader. If anyone want to have raytracing or radiosity, it doesn`t matter why, he or she should have it. The Yost group do it in the right way: they build an open animation package. And that means that any kind of discussion like this thread is senseless. If you want to do anything with you program you should do it. The only question is: who gives us the possibility/feature? I hope the new R5 allows us to plug in any IPAS seamless. And when this is possible it doesn`t matter whether it`s an build-in-features or a third party application. Michael
