Emilio, I have talked to a lot of people lately, it seems, who want 3ds2 but don't want to pay for it! Strange concept!<g> I'd like to travel round the world personally, but I don't want to pay for it. I'd also like a brand new Mercedes…….. ad nauseum

Mr. Foster: Your message should say: I HAVE TALKED A LOT… <punto> And keep doing it… When I'm addressing ADESK with my interest for 3DS is NOT because I dont want to pay for it. I have submited a proposal for an EXCHANGE of some material I have developed. I ALSO am a developer. So far I dont know if a Third party Dev for 3d studio must pay or not. Personally I think ADESK would be lucky of having me as one. Anyway… afterall I DID NOT address you for nothing and consider your comments totally irrelevant. Emilio

Emilio: Well, I'm glad you have such a good opinion of yourself… someone needs to… Was that your windows player that was posted on the forum today? C#

Emilio, Whoa, back off, sir. Any message posted in the general forum (non-restricted sections) is pretty much fair game for anyone to reply to. Private messages can be sent through EMAIL, or applications developers may use the restricted developer's sections. I think your tone is a bit nastier than the situation warrants. Martin Foster has been of tremendous help to other forum members, and I value his participation. Many of us reply to messages not directed specifically toward us, and is a part of the feeling of community often perceived here. Of course, now I'm butting in where unasked. In my own experience as an Autodesk developer (at least in regards to AutoCAD, the Multimedia folks may have different programs), the products have been provided free-of-charge, although use is restricted to development purposes, and developer serial numbers are used. The products usually are not able to be upgraded, or used for other commercial purposes. Often use is only for a limited time, and the software must be returned to Autodesk or destroyed. I would suggest you contact John Sergneri @ 415/491-8533 regarding developer status, or to otherwise direct you internally to the appropriate parties. That doesn't seem to be a general forum activity. We've appreciated your contributions in the past, and hope you will continue your efforts. Thank you. Kevin Krell – Computer Support Associates

Emilio: If I may venture a comment: When you write a message here in the ADESK Forum, it is considered public! That means that ANYONE, including Martin Foster, has every right to make a comment on it's content. If you did not wish to open yourself up to criticism, you should have made your comments private mail to the Autodesk Sysop. And, on top of that, you seem a bit overly defensive, my friend.
