Hey Mark,
>>Yes I but when I buy software that costs a lot of money I try my best to see
if other people think it's a good package or not. <<
That's a good point, Mark, but what alteratives do I have? Go back to
DAS? or maybe Dr. Halo? Remember Dr. Halo? God, I hated that package, (but at
least it worked) :). Anyway, Mark, I'm not here to make enemies, I just want
the problem resolved.
I remember when I first was thinking of getting 3DS; people ware
telling me, "Oh, don't get that, it's crap", or, "It's too expensive, get
something else". In my opinion, 3DS is the best 3D animation package for PC.
People always have an opinion of software and the only way to be sure if it's
any good is to try for yourself. Believe me, I tried it the hard way. I know
what you might say, "Well some people may like AAS and your opinion means
sqwat"… My only response to that would be for anyone and everyone who thinks
AAS is acceptible and is acually producing work on it to come forward and tell
us how. I would like to hear your opinions.
My personal experience involved attempting to draw one frame of an
animation then moving the image over a bit because it was off center. The
result was a system error and my entire computer froze-up. I couldn't even
'ctrl-alt-del' it was that bad. Not giving up faith, I tried again, only
resulting in a crash once more. Getting fustrated, I attempted again, being
more patient and not making any cuts or moves. Things were going well when all
of a sudden I get this 'FLIPPER' thing and the program crashes again. What
burned me up is that I didn't save my work. So I wasted half a day's work and
no results but me getting pissed off.
Well Mark, there you have it. My little story. I hope you can see my
position here.
Take it easy,
Juan
