Just what I need, another fun program to take up my time! <g> RE the disk space… The tendency to make long sequences seems to be worse than with 3DS since the rendering time is quicker. My last little morph was about 20 MB and it was a FLIC. Now what can I sell to get an optical drive… I haven't had any more crashes (keeping the keys off the bottom). To take care of tearing at the edge I put the last flic into AniPro and cropped the edges. I checked again on the screen redraw times. It takes 2 seconds to redraw when clicking on the scrollbar in the FERRARI sample; 13 seconds on a 512×486 targa. Is this just on my system? What were your screen redraw times with the 512×486 images with dither set to Better? I envy you guys with single frame video. I'll bet the targas to tape will be fantastic. What I want to try next is using it with 3DS to do one of those impossible morphs between two dissimilar objects. However, unless I glossed over something, this software doesn't seem to be set up for morphing a moving image (i.e. take a flic or set of targas as the source or destination image.) Might take hours of manual labor. Now that I think of it, a 2D morph module would be a great feature for some deranged programmer to add to Video Post! JKJ PS. Great ideas on the cloud stuff. Keep us posted? Better yet, write an article!
