Bob Thanks for the info. Sure has been a long time. Jim Greenberg called me last week to say hi. I'm trying to work out a way to se him without going all the way up to N.Y. city. Maybe you have some ideas of how I could see both of you in Princeton sometime. It'd be nice to catch up on what's been going on. Ed

Ed: Did that idea I gave you work? How's business? What are you working on? Are you working with Frank? Jim's in Princeton fairly often, every Monday morning I think. We could probably grab lunch or come by after work and we'll catch him after he jumps off the train. – Bob Ritger

Bob, I tried removing the power.exe from the config.sys files and it didn't make any difference. I'll probably have to call ATI to find out what's going on. I would think that somebody else here would have an ATI Mach 64, so maybe they'll jump in. As for what I'm doing these days, I'm currently working on a couple of video animations for CoreStates bank renovations. They aren't very large spaces, but they have a lot of details and knickknacks that they like to see .It keeps me busy and it's more fun than doing C.D.'s,<g> I haven't done anything with Frank since the beginning of the year. We were working on the Circle F project in Trenton and just saw the same things differently, so we went our own ways. Let me know when Jim's going to be in Princeton. It's difficult for me to meet after work hours, but lunch or breakfast would be great. Ed

Ed: Just got back from SIGGRAPH, a successful trip. All of my major 3DS wishes are going to be found in MAX and Lightscape is working on releasing their radiosity/raytracing renderer next month. Have you tried a progressive/selective rendering technique to see if it isn't a particular mesh that is giving you problems with the transforming object hang? By this I mean try hiding all but one of the objects and see if it still hangs, if it doesn't then unhide a couple more, etc. until it hangs. With selective hiding you may find that it is a mesh that is giving you trouble and not the card. Sure, its a long shot but that's all I can think of other than the power.exe thing. – Bob Ritger
