Kevin, I am involved in promotion the use of A.M.'s modeler on the SGI platform as well as for 3D Studio. I like most of the program and I agree that it is great for character development and animation. But we both know it needs more development before it gains wide acceptance for serious production. Having "most" of the features needed doesn't cut it in the marketplace. I see the current version appealing to companies that traditionally did cell animation. The problem is that there are great 2 d programs like Cambridge, Linker, and Softimage that do everything an animation house needs. Where is A.M.'s Post Processor? Why can't photoshop read a A.M. targa file? This list of problems goes on. I am using A.M. because it is the best modeler….hands down. The rest of the program need more work before I can make money with it. Regards, Sanford
