David, I want to conratulate you and the AnimaTek perople on World Builder! I think its a great program and the price is about right. I think most people are used to software and hardware prices falling (we paid $5000 for the first IBM PC) and for IPAS and other routines being much cheaper. I do animation that is mostly outdoor shots for which WB fills a big hole and just made life a LOT easier. Several of us that have been discussing WB here are going to start posting images to demostrate its outstanding capabilities. I just posted one after working with the program less than a day. Also, why didn't Digimation post the two sample flics here? I think they would have shown WB capabilities and silenced the naysayers. I think eveyone should look at the $35,000 cost for SGI Indigos and the high price for Alias and realize what a good deal 3DS is and that we are fortunate to have outside people like yourself support it. Now, how about a Renderman module? Again, great job! Now, if I just had an NT version with a few quad Pentium 180's or P6's machines to cut the render time to nothing… Later! 🙂
