I used 3D Studio to render 60 3D drawings of cars, trucks, and vans. How do I create a slide show of the images? Jeffrey.

Jeffrey, Strangely enough, I think that the Texture Universe Browser (the Browser was bundled in with 3DS Release 4) will let you index a directory with your rendered images, then display them in a simple slide show. Kevin Krell – Computer Support Associates

Dear Kevin, The Image Browser in 3D Studio Release 4 displays thumbnails of images and doesn't do slide shows. Jeffrey.

easy way is to use the aaplay for dos or windows and write a simple script file. Essentially like a batch file. It will do nice 'slide show' fades between your images. aaplay for dos only supports .fli but aaplayhi does flcs also. I believe they are shareware.

Dear Brendon, I have AAPLAYHI program but it won't load 24-bit color *.TGA files unless they are converted to 256-color files. Jeffrey.

Jeffrey, there are a few utilities that are available as shareware. One is vpic, which should be available on compuserve and the other is vgashow, which should also be available on compuserve. There is also a version of vgashow on the World Creating Toolkit CDROM.

Dear Martin, I tried the VGASHOW program that came on the World Creating Toolkit CD-ROM disk but it converts 24-bit color *.TGA files into 8-bit color before displaying them on the screen. I couldn't find VPIC program on CompuServe. I found SVGA11 program but after downloading it and trying to run it, it locked up my Zeos 486 EISA computer and I lost the EISA configuration and memory size. I had to reset my computer and run the CMOS and EISA configuration programs. I found the DISPLAY program on the CD-ROM disk that came with the "PC Graphics Unleased" book. I ran the program and it worked. Jeffrey.

Jeffrey, Could you write back here a phone number or mailing address for this slide utility, if you liked it for 24 bit images. I have been using this one called PICEM, but I could never determine where I got it from and have trouble getting the 24-bit option to work. Thanks! Rachel.

Dear Rachel, If the bookstores doesn't have "PC Graphics Unleased" book, you can order it from Sams Publishing, 201 West 103rd Street, Indianapolis, Indiana 46290, 800-428-5331. Jeffrey.
