I will try putting an omni light below the camera and linking them to a dummy object when I do animations. Last night, I created a walk-through of the subway cars and station but after I started rendering the animation, 3D Studio aborted to DOS after a page fault error. Today, it took 3D Studio 5 hours, 13 minutes, and 57 seconds to render the animation BUT the subway car doors which were supposed to be hidden were there! I would HATE removing the subway car doors from the drawing and render the animation again. I BEGGED Mommy to buy me two Zeos Pantera P66 computers but she refused to buy me them. I HATE waiting 5 hours and 15 minutes for 3D Studio to render the animation. I think the Zeos Pantera P66 computers would cut the time in half. I am MAD at Autodesk for putting a hardware lock on 3D Studio because I can work on drawings on the computer that have the hardware lock but not on computer that doesn't have the hardware lock but I can render drawings. I should have copied the drawing from the computer that have the hardware lock to the computer that doesn't have it and render the drawing. You can have 3D Studio render drawings on computers that are in a network but I don't know how to set up 3D Studio to render drawings that way. I will call my Autodesk dealer and ask him for help.
