For those HyperChem modellers out there, I tracked down the tool for you to convert your HyperChem geometries and motion data to 3ds. Check out cine.exe in the what's new library. jonas[adesk]

great! what's it all for, and how to use it and what is motion data? i'm afraid i'm missing out I need a newsletter or better communication with central, did I miss the mailing list??

Larry, Cinechem is available of our Library in the What's New Section. If you are using HyperChem & 3D Studio, you did not have a way to take you molecular model and the motion behaviour into 3DS to improve on the presentation and use the 3ds keyframmer and renderer. John Walker, a founder of Autodesk, wrote a converter in 1992 to do just that. Our legal department has released the product to the public domain. For those of you who try out this product, I'd like to see some of your molecular animations appear in the upload section for my enjoyment.<G> For those of you who do not have HYPERCHEM, there are 2 example output files(from HyperChem) that you can render statically and one that is animated(I liked this one). jonas[adesk]
