Lee, His source was from a microphone, but he couldn't get it to work properly. Possibly you can lend a hand, since without owning or ever using the AMAS setup, all I can offer are generic suggestions. David

What ??? You got reflections ? What software are you using ? I can't get my software to do anything but spheres… 🙂

Moving up to making shiny boxes?!? (Is this going to be in your tutorial? :^) Wishing I had a real job to pay for the 3-D stuff . . . . Erik Flom

<<Is this going to be in your tutorial?>> Yeah, I figured that descibing the intricacies of building a "shiny box" would intrigue (and challenge) even the most advanced 3D modeler. Why? Surely you don't think I'm under estimating my reading audience, do you? OK, maybe I'll throw in a "colored" cone (great now I have to write 2 paragraphs)! <<Wishing I had a real job to pay for the 3-D stuff . . . .>> I don't know, even with a "real job," there's still too much month left at the end of my paycheck. Oh well, at least I take pleasure in knowing that my machine is many, many, many times faster than yours. Alan Henry – Digital Plastic, Inc. F100-PW-200 Inside

Wow, make sure and include a disk with sample scenes! (When it gets this complex, the user could easily get lost in the description. 'Next, we'll make the bottom side of our cone . . .Step 1 . . .' :^) '. . .my machine is many, many, many times faster than yours.' I assume you're referring to that rather powerful aircraft that us taxpayers so graciously allow you to fly? :^) Keep On Toastin' Erik Flom P.S. OK, so just what exactly IS a F100-PW-200? Some kinda' Pratt& Whitney engine or sumthin'?

Geez, I guess I'll need to include a lot of screen shots too (so they don't get the shiny box confused with the colored cone). I didn't want to spend more than 2 weeks on this thing, darn! :^( <<OK, so just what exactly IS a F100-PW-200? Some kinda' Pratt& Whitney engine or sumthin'?>> Shack! (Cool Fighter pilot term for "uh-huh");^)

Oh yes, please put in lots of pretty color pictures! That's the main reason us 3-D guys buy the books in the first place! :^) (Even if they ARE just spheres floating over checkerboard plains, they have a unique sort of 'beauty'. :^) OK, so I guessed the PW part. What about the rest of it? :^) Keep On Toastin' Erik Flom
