Use a CIS navigator, Frank, and connect time will be minimal. -Alan

>> are there any adesk forum equivalents on the internet? if so, what are the addresses? if not, i suggest adesk do so. i'd rather spend my money on adesk products than connect time in extended forums. << hi frank. few suggestions. most folks online have an offline mailer such as WinCIM or Tapcis which can be on for less than a minute a day on this forum and give you full capability to read and respond to all mail in this forum. GO WINCIM or GO TAPCIS for more info. as much as i can recommend Inet for somethings, this net (Compuserve) remains Adesk's major channel of focus… their Inet presence is very minimal at this point (but growing). Autodsk does have a web page these days at http://www.autodesk.com and they have a had an anonymous server for some time at ftp.autodesk.com. you gets what you pay for, as you'll soon discover. 😉 -dave

>are there any adesk forum equivalents on the internet?< Not even close. Most of the well known 3DS users are on this forum. Autodesk has a mailing list (3dstudio@autodesk.com) and there are newsgroups (comp.graphics.animation, comp.graphics.packages.3dstudio). The 3DS traffic on the Internet is not at the level you get here. >I'd rather spend my money on adesk products than connect time in extended forums.< With an offline reader like CSNAV and with CIS's lower (2.95/hour) rates it isn't that expensive. If you just read messages and don't d/l that much you can probably use this forum for $20-25/month.

Dear Frank: There are a number of web pages for Autodesk Products: first: www.autodesk.com then check out: www.advanstar.com/cadalyst (3 visualization pieces in last months issue) (unofficial comprehensive ACAD 13 bug list) www.opencad.com/Magic_Mirror (all Autodesk Multimedia All The Time) From www.yahoo.com you can search for autodesk, autocad, 3d Studio and find dozens of pages. The 'Technical Support/Forum' you find here isn't on line – but you can send email to the authors of pages and they will often respond. Glad to see another Internaut on CIS. N.
