>So it's pure lightwave? _WOW_! Fooled me!<
Using a budget a little over $1 Million they used 9 DEC Alphas running beta
Lightwave 4.0. They also used had Alpha versions of Elastic Reality and Impact.
Elastic Reality beta (morphing), Impact (collision detection). Photoshop,
Fractal Painter, Picture Publisher, WinImages on four Pentiums were used for
texture mapping. They also have two PowerMacs running After Effects for
bluescreen mattes. The explosions are stock footage composited with the 3D
animation.
