Mike; >> But thanks for the feedback. Overall, were you impressed with the >> quality, compared to what we've come to know and love with 3DS? The image they were working on looked great! It appears that you can work on part of your image at a time, so when you make changes, it only updates the part of the screen that is changing. I don't really know how they are doing it, but they said something about a Z buffer. Again, I didn't get all the info, but apparently you can make the grass "blow in the wind". And also do fly through's. One person stopped by to congratuate the author on the tutorials. Apparently there is a "Demo" of how each (or at least some, I'm not sure) selection is used. If that is the case, it would help the learning curve immensely. That's about all I know. Dennis
