Peter says: 30 minutes per frame rendering times lately. And this is for a 5100 frame Anim, I am NOT happy. Well, I have Imagine 2.0 and when those guys say "Quickrender" I say, "How slow???" Seriously, I have a question for you about using Imagine. I keep playing with it and don't get anywhere. I got Steve Worley's book but then I let a buddy have it because I am learning Lightwave and I thought it would be greedy not to share the book with my friend while I am not using it. But every once in a while, as a break from learning LW, I dabble with Imagine. So: 1. How do you get it to render in DCTV format. I typed DCTV into "quickrender rendering method" in preferences. But I get a message that says Bad Quickrendering Method in config file. 2. How the hell do you animate with this thing. I have trod through 100 pages of gibberish and I still can't figure it out…. Give me a clue, will ya?
