Gary, Yeah, there was a booboo on disk#4 installation list and so you even the file shipped, the PRJRZF.RZ_ file is not expanded automatically. You can expand it yourself using expand (in the DOS directory) to PRJRZF.RZF or wait till next week when we'll be shipping the new version. Jamie Carr in:sync

Thanks for the reply Jamie, >>> Yeah, there was a booboo on disk#4 installation list and so you even the file shipped, the PRJRZF.RZ_ file is not expanded automatically. <<< Cool ! Sometimes, I think, people just like to hear that they're neither crazy or stupid.<BG> BTW, Has anyone, or is anyone planning to, put together a book on Razor Pro – a la "Inside 3D Studio" or "3D Studio – Tips and Tricks" ? No, I'm not volunteering (well, maybe in the future?<G>) – just that I'm so new to the animation side of things (and even more new to the sound side) and would like to learn as much as I can – as fast as I can. C U Gary 🙂

Why a book, Razor Pro is very easy to use, I use to edit on 3/4 inch so using RP is a breeze. Its real straight forward and now I can work on being good a Editor as well as a budding young Animator. Now if I could only (PAR)rotoscope across the network.

Hi Richard, As a fellow "budding young animator" I suspect that you, more than most, can appreciate my desire – obsession and/or compulsion – to get my hands on anything and everything relating to what we do. I fully realize that the best way to learn something is to immerse yourself in it – play with it, get in trouble, understand how and why you got there and how to get out of it. Unfortunately, I don't exactly have the luxury of time – one could argue, "who does ?". I also have several other softwares that I'm trying to "immerse" myself in and highly impatient bosses. (Can you here the tiny violins playing sweetly in the background ?<G>) << Razor Pro is very easy to use, >> Your'e right, it is. By the end of my first day I had figured out how the basics worked and put together a 30 second piece – just to test drive some of the transitions. A few days later, Jamie helped me figure out how to attach WAV files. Guess you could say I'm "functional" with it….but looking to be much more than just that. Thus the quest for more info. Is it possible that I'm a *little* to into this? Take it easy, Richard. Gary 🙂

I can relate. I have a few programs that I only scratch the surface of what they can do. Right now I am stuck home with a broken leg, so I am doing a cram session with new software.
