#Playmation
Mark,
I've been a user of Playmation for about 2 years (since, gulp, it's Amiga
days). Recently upgraded to the new Animation:Master. The docs are *much*
better, plus some really useful features have been added.
Tech support is pretty spotty, you can try the bbs, or one of these two tech
support numbers.
bbs: (206) 574-5619
voice (206) 699-5360 (recorded message, they get back to you, maybe)
(206) 750-0042 (this number was given out by one of the people
involved with the program on the bbs, have never used it)
My biggest problems getting started were understanding spline patches and
channels. Both huge areas to discuss without a specific question.
To simply render an image you have to start the Director module, and add
points, called "paths", for all objects, lights, targets, and the camera. If
you are interested I'll email an easy tutorial to get you started.
Andrew.
