Hey, I just saw the IPAS demo reel yesterday at Cyber Arts in Pasadena. Bob Bennett, Tina Mills, and Garth S. were there to give the 3D Studio Master Course. They did a great job, but I had to duck out to see the latest 7th Guest demo. Anyway, the IPAS reel was AWESOME! I can't wait until its released to the public! One of the best sequences was the Lens Flare Filter, incredible! As a suggestion, for the final demo, try panning the camera target past the sun, while the camera itself sits in one location without moving. That should make the lense flares pivot around the center of the screen. For example, the picture in the brochure shows the flares going from upper right to lower left. If the camera were to pan to the right, the flares should pivot/rotate and run from upper left to lower right. Right? Anyway, I did not see that effect on the demo reel. I'm really looking forward to getting the IPAS SDK, if Chris ever gets it out…:-( HighC and Pharlap SDK are still collecting dust on my shelf… BTW, that last Email you sent me got destroyed, I just installed a 1.2GIG SCSI, and had it terminated incorrectly. (No terminating resisters, just a hidden jumper). So the MAIL.MSG file that had your Email message got corrupted. I hope you remember what it was about. -MM
