I wasn't sure about the 32-bit chips. I'll keep that in mind. Also, I
know the Wavefront system that I use at work isn't really a true ray-trace
renderer. They use quite a few tricks & shortcus to get the same results,
thus saving rendering time. Still, a frame can take on an average of 5
minutes to an hour to render on a DECStation 5000 (which is a fairly speedy
computer). What am I looking at in render time on an accellerated Amiga?
And is Imagine a ray-trace system or can it render in different formats?
Thanks.
