>>David, << I haven't used it much, but Alias Sketch has a nice and easy way to match perspective. What is your overall opinion on Alias Sketch? Is the interface good? How about the spline/NURBS modeler? Do you have anything up in the libs that you created with it? Mark << Mark, may experience with Sketch is by reading the manual (thank's Scaatt!) watching the tutorial tape and haveing just a few minutes on a machine. My first call on it is positive. Interface is GOOD. Perspective match is very easy and quick. I am trying to justify a MAC purchase to use COSA and would then take closer look at Sketch. Ask Scott Roberts (Scaatt is former roommate of mine and GOOD friend) as he bought this product for the company he works at. David.

Mark and David, My brother has Alias sketch on his PowerMac. He likes the output but is very frustrated with its speed. In 3DS object transformations go fast. But in Alias, when he clicks on an object it takes quite a few seconds before it selects it to move. I don't know if for some reason selecting is slow or what (BTW he has an 80 Mhz PowerPC chip, don't know much of Macs). Otherwise he loves the rendering quality and spline modeling. But just too darn slow in other parts. Plus no animation in Sketch so he prefers 3DS. just some more thoughts. ————————-Will
