Howdy, Are we going to see another set of Vibrant drivers soon? I've upgraded from a Stealth 64 PCI 4Mb VRAM to a 4Mb Video VRAM, and the old drivers (the ones posted 7/11) don't support it properly in Rel 4. On the plus side, of course, the older card locked up Animator Studio, while the new one works just fine…. Thanks for the continued support. -Eric

Greetings! AH, the Vibrant BBS. Actually, I'm pretty close to them and I know some guys over there. Maybe I can get the files directly. I will one way or another. Thanks for the tip. Other Topic: Your copy of Make Tracks shipped today via priority mail. Had to find your biz card from the open house, but it was in the file. You should have the routines and manual and project files and maps by Tuesday. Thanks again for the help with network-plus-field testing. You wouldn't want to run Particles 2 through the same wringer in a coupla weeks, too, would you? I reviewed Rick Miller's file on forensic animators after my trip to the post office, so the package went to Pyros Pictures instead of TrialVision. Hope that's OK. DOWN WITH ANIMAPS! May your animators never paint skidmarks frame-by-frame, and may you retire your morphing vertex-intensive trails forever! -Eric

We now have more rendering capabilities than we can use ourselves, so outside projects welcome! >> I reviewed Rick Miller's file on forensic animators after my trip to the >> post office, so the package went to Pyros Pictures instead of TrialVision. That is the best, TrialVision is a division which only handles forensic animations, our delivery people know Pyros Pictures better! Greg Pyros

I wasn't aware the VRAM could be upgraded. How much of a speed improvement did you notice when you upgraded to Video VRAM? How much did the upgrade cost? — James — Choreo Motion —
