Hi David! I did some things with SKIN and it`s not as good as I expected. I saw the skinning feature in SoftImage and I loved it. I expected that SKIN comes close to this high-end program but I was dissapointed. There are not very huge differences between 3DS and some SGI programs but very important differences <g>. We sell RayMan since a few weeks and it seems to be ok. We`re already developing the second release and we`re very far. I think I`ll upload the first raytraced flic in the beginning of march… We have reduced the memory requirement by 70% and speeded up pure raytracing up to 100%. In combination with the new A-buffer we`re more than fast. We`re very fast <g>. Michael
