>>It would help you greatly if you calculate the circumference of the ball and rim. Determine how much linear distance the ball covers along the rim per frame. Compare this to the circumference of the ball to get the angle per frame of ball rotation. Yeah, I've already done these calculations. I've been trying to avoid linking the ball for other reasons, but I think it is probably the best option. Trying to get the rotation correct without linking is a real pain. Will you be attending Siggraph? I will be bringing a short demo reel and would like to get some feedback on it from some folks. If so, I look forward to meeting you and the rest of the Forumites. Or is that Forumians?… ForumHeads?… Take Care, Tyler Colwell Sierra Analysis Group
