>>PAR frame-jumpin'… Yeah, buddy. I think it would work OK as a "poor-man's" (relative, of course <g>) frame buffer. It seems to me from when I played with it that another small advantage to sending rendering tests dircectly to the PAR was the "history" animation file you build. I was going to call sometime soon when I had enough free minutes to make it worthwhile! So far, ack! Hey, a proposition, Mr Alan "Social Director" Iglesias. I tremendously enjoyed the Siggraph ASOFT get-together you guys put on last year (with Iglesias originals' nametags!). If it turns out that no one local to mid-Fla is volunteers to set up an ASOFT thing this year, maybe we could set one up for later in the week after we get there and scope out the area. You know, people could give the secret password at the Adesk booth on Monday and be shown the private notice for the party on Tuesday or Thursday, or something like that. I'll be driving down with Bruce M. so maybe we could bring an SVHS deck. Just need to find/rent a spot with a TV, etc. Think it would work? JKJ
