<accurender is fast> I have other programs which raytrace –Strata, Animation Master, Crtstal Topas–and I admit that raytracing in general is slow. The problem I have with Accurender is that you have to run it through the Autocad 12 interface. I want a raytracer that I can run from the 3DS heyframer. I really have no problem waiting for raytraces…I also watch the grass grow, and watch rivers erode their way ever deeper toward China…but I hate having to get out of the great 3DS interface and load in another program. If Rayman runs inside 3DS, or even from a command line that is not a hassle, I'm a customer. Have you ever tried to get a job of 500 frames out with Accurender? I don't think so. Perhaps when Windows NT supports 3DS – if ever – raytracing will get faster. Regards, Sanford
