There is no answer for this one. Not yet anyway. VTASC compression in
standard mode will produce banding as you described. Lightwave with the
Flyer has been "modified" (read kludged) to save anims as a Flyer Clip
and Iff-Clip does the same by rendering to framebuffer then doing a VTASC
compression still save. Each subsequent frame is appended to the previous.
When 4.1 is released... (spiderwebs grow while we wait) it will support
direct rendering to VTASC clip and use the highest quality then available
(right now it's Hi-Qualty 5)
(for now, don't use lensflares or other gradient producing options if you
can help it (or make 'em damn fast)
