Hi David,
<< Is Autodesk going to be coming out with a 32k color VESA ADI at some point
for R2 (as opposed to the current 256 color only)? >>
There is a set of ADI drivers offered by Vibrant that supports R2.
<< .. but in Canada.. I think we're getting hosed up here. >>
I'll forward your thoughts to the manager of the Americas responsible for
dealers…
<<How compatible are/will R3/R4 meshes be with R2 (I realize that any new
materials/IPAS3/IPAS4 attached to any objects will not be present in R2). >>
Mesh compatibility is present. However, I haven't booted R2 lately and I'm sure
if it can read APP_DATA_CHUNKS. Have you downloaded the flip.zip from the
meshes/animation section yet? It has IK APP_DATA_CHUNKS. Are you able to review
the *.prj successfully? I won't be able to test this myself until I get back to
the office. 🙁
<<Also, along the same line as the previous question, is it possible for the
sysops to get the uploaders to designate which revision their files are for (or
make the addition themselves), to a few of the current and any new files. >>
Definately! We need to designate r4 meshes from others. With R4, It is
possible to embed scripts into your files.
