Cindy, >> I have to set parameters render the animation to check it then set the parameters and render the animation again << that's the way it works with .axp's, unless they specifically have a little preview window included, like flame and vapour. Hopefully, in the future all plug-ins will have a real-time (if computationally possible) preview method. Many do now, but older ones tend not to. In the meantime render test with flat shading, anti-aliasing off, no shadows or mapping, and in a smaller window than for final renderings (1/4 or 1/8 screen rez).
