Texture
The story command won't do non-linear motion, such as gravity. Story just
moves the object the same amount from frame to frame, while an object under
acceleration from gravity moves a little from 1 to 2, a little bit more
from 2 to 3, and even more from 3 to 4, and so on. As far as I know, there
is no way to make story do this kind of motion. If you NEVER use the
stereo feature in TSilver SV, it is worth the upgrade. The improved quality
of the Solid Model alone is worth it. Some people don't do full traces
anymore, it is that good. And the upgrade is just $30.00, cheap at twice
that amount. I also have Sculpt 3D XL, which was an $80.00 upgrade. Turned
out it was, in some respects, a step backward from the old version, and the
Scan Line mode just does not compare with the Tsilver Solid model mode, not
even in the same ball park. Although I must admit the object editor is
still superior, I am getting used to the TSilver object editor. Send me a
cell or a rendered picture (in IFF) if you don't mind. They couldn't be
worse than mine.
