That is partially correct. We did have a delay with the User guide.
Some LW 5.0 shipped the week of NAB with only a Reference guide. Those
packages will automatically be updated with final User guides.

The User Guides are arriving on Tuesday and we will ship in bulk at
that point. Sorry for the confusion.

Hi Chuck. I was wondering what it takes to qualify for the Educational
price for the LW5.0 upgrade. I work full time for a school district's
media/TV department and own LW  which I use here to make graphics for our
Web pages and video productions. The problem is that the district can't
afford LW so I bought it myself. Can I get the educational price if I
provide proof of my employment for the district or is it only open to P.O.s
that come right from the district office?

I have used Linux.  People are quick to point out why it is better than
Windows in multitasking, but here is the one fact that nobody can deny

Linux is difficult to use.  VERY difficult compared to Windows.  So, people
don't use it, so apps aren't made for it.  There are those dedicated people
who still stand by it, but as Windows NT Server/Workstation reaches
maturity, and as the NT/95 platforms come closer together, Unix will die a
slow death on the desktop.  It will only hold the market for MAJOR computing
tasks where you need to run multiple processes on a server.

Have you ever tried to set up a computer running Windows NT 4.0 Server? I all
but gave up on using a BSDI computer to allow people to call into work and
establish PPP links.  Then I got NT server 4 and it was running in about an
hour or so.

The NewTek web site is currently under a complete re-build.  I would
expect there to be new LW information available by the end next week.
The brand new site should make it's appearance shortly after that.

Thanks for your patience.

There are several approaches to motion blur like this one. If you want the
technical info, you can read "Modeling Motion Blur in Computer Generated
Images" by Potmesil et. al. in the 1983 Siggraph proceedings. A lot of
calculus in that article, though, and I haven't the faintest as to how
long it takes to process, but it might be quite involved -- although
certainly it takes less time than 16 passes of a scene... Also, the results
aren't as accurate as they might be with multiple samples, since an object
that should move from occluding another, to being occluded might just
streak and not be occluded by anything. This in part can be remedied by
taking multiple passes of the scene. It might then take longer than the
current method in LW, but it'd look better, since there's actual streaking
of the object.
    Note that since this article was published some 13 years ago and
the algorithm isn't used in any current packages -- supersampling is still
the most popular technique -- ther's probably something wrong with it
(either it's way slow, way limited, or way patented).
    ElectricImage uses something called "vector blur"; I imagine this
technique is similar to the one mentioned above -- not because it uses the
same, or even a similar, algo. -- but in that it streaks pixels instead of
supersampling the scene. They claim it takes just under twice as long to
motion blur most frames as it would to just render them normally; this is
MUCH faster than any supersampling trick I've seen.
    There's also a neat trick in the article "View Interpolation for
Image Synthesis". Here, the authors suggest morphing between frames, using
camera/object motion information so that the morphed frames closely
approximates actual object motion, and then average these frames together
to get a blurred image. A weighted average would allow for an
approximation of the behavious of a camera shutter.
    Then ther's the stochastic sampling used by RenderMan, which isn't
the fastest technique in the world, but creates the best blurring in the
field. Unfortunately, the algorithms are kinda patented, although I think
some companies use them regardless.
    Anyways, the point of all this is to say, there are better ways to
motion blur than the way LightWave does it. Hopefully NewTek will
implement a new method for blur in the future, but I guess we'll have to
wait and see.
    Vince

One of the questions I've asked is what you can do to the character after
Biped gets through with it. Evidently, you can edit the resulting
animation with traditional means like channel editors. I'm told you can
still use IK with it, though to what extent I don't know.

While I'm dead set against Satan's Rotoscope, a generalized tool like
Biped could produce some interesting results in the hands of a true
animator.

The general problem with tools like Biped and IK as it has been
manifested on the PC is lack of depth-in-design and editing tools.
I regard the controls for animation on the PC like the treble, midrange
and bass controls on some stereo systems, when what your room needs is a
graphic equalizer, and maybe even a parametric equalizer.

Problem is, you can't just get a box and a couple of RCA cables to plug
into LW and Max to enhance the IK or oddball programs like Biped.

The development of plug-in architectures is encouraging. The situation
now is that you can get plug-ins for each program, but they won't work in
any other program. Imagine the world of home audio and video if every
manufacturer had their own cables, signal formats, connectors, tape
formats etc. That's where the plug-in architecture is now.

Yeah, I've used metaballs for awhile, too. I was referring to the fact that
the demo reps didn't know much about any of the new features except Open GL
and MetaNURBS.

I got several different stories about the Map Motion plugin. I know it
isn't shipping in the 5.0 box, but will we get it when it is available?

  True, however, previous LW upggrades were only $150 or so!  I suppose
NewTek is making up for its earlier losses with its cheap upgrade
program :)

  They did leave the Amiga upgrade at $295, but if I want to upgrade
both Amiga and NT versions, that's $800.  If I upgrade only
one, that leavesa big compatibility/function gap.  Honestly, I think it
is worth the money, as 5.0 is a very big upgrade.

  I could be wrong, but I thought that the 3DS to MAX upgrade was about
$500 as well?

  In any case, while I am sure that everyone would like free upgrades,
or as cheap as possible, I don't think that will stop software companies
from charging for making improvements that are worth paying for.

There's always the possibility that someone will make a plug-in. There is
already a plug-in that does the depth of field effect much faster than the
internal renderer. Maybe the same principle may apply to motion blur.

So the S:AAB people (whenever I see that acronym I think
of cars) obviously opted to put up with the strobed blur in order to cut
down render times.
-------------------------

Yeah, exactly - sometimes we'd render a few frames at higher settings, but
on the schedule (at least for the pilot, which is what I mainly worked on)
we couldn't afford the higher price in render times....

Hi folks

I posted some times before for Morgan and have followed the Millenium problem
through with Matrox. As far as I can tell, the Millenium does not accelerate
OpenGL. The reply from Matrox (see below) was that the I was not
using the correct resolution for 3D acceleration or that Powerview was not a
true implementation of OpenGL.

I disagree with both these assumptions as I tried several resolutions and
colour depths and the Intergraph machine that Morgan mentions most certainly
did accelerate Powerview.

I haven't followed any further as I don't find the Beta version of Powerview
all that useful, but when LW5 arrives, I want my OpenGL!

Here's the response from Matrox:

IS MY OPENGL APPLICATION ACCELERATED OR NOT ??????
==================================================
   Most of the time people complain about non-accelerated OpenGL rendering
   while it's a normal situation due to the actual state of their environment
   (application, resolution/video memory/pixel depth, registry setting,
   Microsoft OpenGL).

   Here is a description of what things affect the OpenGL acceleration with
   Millennium.

   1) The Windows NT registry contains flags that indicate if a Z buffer and a
      BACK buffer (for double buffering) are to be allocated in the Millennium
      frame buffer memory. By default these flags are all set to TRUE,
      indicating that both a Z and a BACK buffer are to be allocated.

      NOTE that depending on the Millennium amount of memory, the
      resolution and
      pixel depth, it may not be possible for the display driver to follow the
      indications of the registry flags (not enough memory). In such cases the
      registry flags are ignored and the Z and BACK buffers are NOT allocated,
      which may results in NO 3D ACCELERATION.

      Based on the Z and BACK buffer allocation, 3D-DDI will have some
      resources to perform 3D acceleration. These resources are described to
      OpenGL when an OpenGL application starts.

      !!! We observed that OpenGL won't use 3D-DDI primitive acceleration if
      3D-DDI doesn't have both Z and BACK buffers allocated, EVEN if the
      OpenGL
      application selects a visual that doesn't require these resources. For
      example  an OpenGL application selecting a simple SINGLE buffer visual
      (without any Z or BACK buffer) and rendering to the FRONT buffer, would
      not be accelerated because OpenGL would decide to do it in software if
      3D-DDI doesn't have both Z and BACK buffers allocated.  This means that
      an OpenGL user that want to access higher resolution, setting the
      registry switches to 0, would lose the 3D-DDI acceleration because of
      OpenGL. !!!

      2) An OpenGL application starts by selecting what is called a Pixel
      Format
      or Visual. The Visual describes the color model (TrueColor or
      PseudoColor), the color format (bit per color ...), the Z format (bit
      per
      z), Single/Double buffer and many other things. According to the Visual
      description OpenGL will allocated the required resources (front/back
      buffer, Z buffer).

      When allocating the resources, OpenGL may take a NO 3D ACCELERATION path
      for many reasons that share a common reality: one or more resources are
      not available from the 3D-DDI driver. For example the application may
      ask
      for a PseudoColor Visual which can't be accelerated because the
      Millennium/3D-DDI doesn't support the PseudoColor model. Other examples
      could involve Z buffer (the application may be asking for a 32 bit Z
      buffer as we only support 16 bit), BACK buffer (Millennium/3D-DDI may
      not
      have access to a BACK buffer), etc.

      Based on the Visual selected by the OpenGL application, OpenGL may have
      to emulate all or most of the rendering in software which will result in
      a NON ACCELERATION situation. Because OpenGL in the presence of 3D-DDI
      tends to use a read/write mechanism through 3D-DDI, instead of following
      its Generic software path, the performance will decrease when 3D-DDI is
      on the system !!!

     3) OpenGL has a large set of rendering attributes as Fog, Blending,
      Dithering, Texture Mapping, Anti-Aliasing, etc ... 3D-DDI is not
     required
      to support all these attributes as it is a DDI and not an API. Microsoft
      mentioned in the 3D-DDI specification that only hardware accelerated
      attributes must be implemented in a 3D-DDI driver.

      If an OpenGL application selects a rendering attribute not supported by
      the 3D-DDI driver, then OpenGL emulates the rendering in software doing
      read/write accesses through 3D-DDI to access the front, back and
      Z buffers.

      In some circumstances like TEXTURE MAPPING, OpenGL always emulate The
      rendering in software even if the 3D-DDI driver accelerates this kind
      of rendering !!!

      Based on the rendering attributes used by an OpenGL application, OpenGL
      may have to or "DECIDE" to emulate the rendering in software which
      result
      in a NON ACCELERATED situation and even in a decelerated situation.

      - Matrox

BTW - I ran my tests under both 95 and NT.

Has anyone else tried to test OpenGL on the Millenium and, if so, have they
achieved success? Is their a test programme for OpenGL? Is Powerview a full
OpenGL implementation?

Cheers

    This is kind of embarrassing to even ask, but what about us poor
schmucks that are still waiting for the 4.0 LW manuals?

Is this an Industry first?

NewTek ships out a completely new version before the manuals shipped
for the _previous_ version?

I've been told I still have 2 or 3 weeks before I can expect to see my

 Someone(I forget who) did a simple tutorial on simulating volumetric in
 LWPro. It was based on light shining thru leaves of a tree. I know that
 it involved a bitmap to use as a kind of cookie cutter and it looked
 pretty good. I haven't seen any of this stuff MAX has done yet so I
 can't comment. As  far as Marks comment goes he has always been striaght
 forward in regards to 3D regardless of the program. It may well be that
 it does not meet his standards, or fullfill his needs so to him it may
 well be useless. I hold his opinion in to high a regard to lable any

BTW, can anyone say what the differences between 4.0a and 4.0c are.  I
have a pretty good deal on buying 4.0a but the "a" part scares me.

I am currently having ALL of those exact same problems. And it SUCKS! Because
I have been having them ever since I bought my machine which is a Raptor 3
with a 275 mhz Dec Alpha chip and a 128 megs of RAM. I have had my macine
since the beginning of Febuary. I have been told that it could be the RAM but
no one really seems to know for sure. My machine has been down for almost 2
weeks now and I am still waiting for something to be done. With me the error
messages happen all the time and weather I'm in Modeler or Layout, it dosen't
matter. And it of course always happens when you can least afford it to.
And also when that error message comes up it, of course, crashes the program
out and sometimes the system...........md

    In general a graphics artist straight out of school will make money in the mid-twenties. That is a
guaranteed paycheck; not contract work. As such I think the offer is extremely generous. I am programmer and an
animator and I would never give a graphic artist that generous of an offer: 20% + CASH. NUTS in my opinion. Or
maybe they are very nice people, or maybe the game really sucks and they expect little profit. One note though:
Always try to get a small percentage of gross instead of a high percentage of profit: They can always up their
costs on their own salaries and thus screw you out of your "profit"part.
    AS a programmer I must say this: If you think that animating in 3D is hard then consider that I've been
animating for 11 years (turbosilver; the reason I bought an Amiga) as a way to RELAX! Believe me looking for bugs
in 100k+ lines of code is a lot more exhausting than screwing around with channel parameters.

    Actually, if one was to read the LW mailing list , they would see the above
 statement is really off the mark.(outright dumb). There is a lot
 of stuff being discussed BY LW users in regards to what they feel it's
 shortcomings are. Most critism I see on this list it put forth is an
 inflammatory manner( the above is a good example) . I have an Amiga and
 I like it, I'd by an pentium or Alpha if I could afford them and I'd  use
 them. I don't see a lot of comparison to MAx , except on this list. It is
 more in the vien of Alias, softImage, and some Mac users are Talking EI.
 As for replying that LW is used on TV ect, I don't see anybody that is using
 it on the programs discussed saying that. I agree it is wearing thin.

  BTW have you seen the HyperNauts with the flying Mantas ;-)

I've been using a beta of Premiere 4.2 for several months, and now
that it's been released I can recommend it as another alternative.
Premiere 4.2 is 100% native 32-bit app now and speed improvements are
quite substantial. It doesn't have tons of new features, but the 32-bit
port is very robust and the program is much more industrial quality. It
runs great both on Win95 and WinNT. Also, it's still cheap.

Nope. Ya still need to convert .pvd to .avi.... but 4.2 is much more
robust in general now that its native 32-bit (much faster, too).

I saw it. It only does a predifined number of effects such as dissolves,
wipes, etc. It looked ok. If you have a PVR and rendering times are a
big deal, it seemed like a good investment. However, if ya don't own a
card yet, I'd recommend the Plum from Interactive Images. Rendering is
currently at 15x now, and a new driver technology they've got in
development should bring them down to about 4x by fall.

It deffinitly has to do with True Type fonts. Even the manual says to use Post

It would not be easier to just give them surface names. Because the surface
would STILL be attched to the rest of the object and thus retain the rest of
the objects axis and of course that would not allow for indvidual axis
placement of the textures. And of course, you would still have to give ANY
surface a surface name before you could apply any texture.

I'm thinking that if and when I get LW, I might do just that. I'm a Mac
user, so I have to wait before LW Mac makes its debut. The problem is,
you'd have to have object and camera motion vectors for each (or at least
a good chunk) of the pixels, and I don't know if you could write a filter
that does. If you can, it shouldn't be a problem. Hopefully I'll find out
sooner than later...

BTW, about that depth-of-field thing: anyone know which algorithm's used?
Is it Potmesil et al.'s, or something else? Just curious...

    Yes the time and money involved is large, but to fall back to JP,
it CAN be done without procedurals.  It just takes talent and hours
(sometimes months) of tweaking.
   I'm all too aware that budgets and schedules don't always allow for
the animator to merge with the supreme godhead of character animation
and produce a masterpiece, so yes procedurals can be useful.
Especially if they're extremely tweakable (as is Biped).  But I still
prefer the 'art' over the 'science'.

The person smoking drugs must be you.

The *only* company that produces a 486dx2-80 is AMD.

NT ain't no idoit's OS either!!  I had Slackware Linux up and running on my machine
in about 3 days.  NT took over 2 weeks to iorn out all the hardware conflicts.

Linux also worked with my Cd-ROM drive, ZIP drive, etc with NO driver support or
configuration or anything (so did NT, but only after 2 weeks :)

I dunno about the specific methods but the quick DOF renderer plug-in maker
has a web page. I don't have the address handy but you should be able to
find it via the search engines. The product name is Wavefilter. Memex also
makes plug-ins and they have a web page with links to other Lightwave
plug-ins.

I guess it also depends on who is hiring whom. The hiree gets the smaller
cut, and the production company hiring people probably ends up getting a
smaller cut than the distributor or store.

  Yeah, but he's talking about a for fun, shareware project.  There's no
way a person doing graphics in his spare time _could_ do anything like a
"multi-media, windows, drool and click game".  I do believe 20% for such
a project is about normal (could be wrong, it always depends on the
game).

Hello,

How does one record to tape using the PC version of lightwave.  I have a
single frame animation recorder (sanyo gvp-2200) and a p166 computer.  In the
manual it says something about hooking up the serial port to the recorder but
that only allows for control.  Where does the video signal come from?  On the
amiga I just went out of the toaster.  Do I have to buy ANOTHER piece of
hardware to make the PC equal the amiga?  Any suggestions would be greatly

Just wanna show my personal example of programmer learning also how to draw
good graphics, expecially using 3D RayTracing programs. But I never heard of a
graphician learning assembly programming to code the latest 3D tmap engine..
This says all about programmer vs graphician IMHO.
Anyway no offence for any graphician, really.

I agree, I've never understood what the usefulness of multiple cameras
is. You can only look through one at a time and you can only render
from one of the perspectives. If you want to look from a different
location, just put the camera there.

In other words, you need to know which objects are visible in each pixel
and what their velocities are relative to the camera.  Could be a problem.

The author is here somewhere, but based on what he's said in the past,
it's along the lines of Potmesil and Chakravarty (ACM TOG, 1982).  BTW,
P & C (SIGGRAPH 83) extended their method to motion blur.

Looks like a decent system for a decent price.  Just one comment.  If NT is not
already installed and working on the system you are buying, make sure that all of
the components (video card, CD-ROM drive, etc.) are on the NT Hardware
Compatibility list.  NT driver support is getting pretty good these days but there
are still things supported under DOS or Windows that aren't supported yet under NT.
Could save you some grief.

 I think you missed the point here, it appears that LW uses a multi
frame/composite render approach to motion blur, as opposed to a
renderman type solution. (sub-pixel fragments sampled over time, if I
understand it correctly) The speed difference on large blurs can be
incredible.

"The FX Kit for Lightwave" by Alan Chan is a good choice. I finished the LW
tutorials in the User's Guide and just starting to read the "FX" book but so
far it's easy to follow and gives real practical advice.

 You can get it from Lightspeed (800-764-8696) for $34.95.

I don't know where this guy get's his info. But Alias and an SGI will
take you much further than the latter. If you want to do video work
then either will get the job done, (of course Alias will do quite a
bit more) if you want to get into film work then Alias is the clear
choice.

I work for SEGA as an artist.
I'd like to point out that the programmer and artist that try to put each of their
individual work as being tougher/better/more important than the other's have no business
working on a team.  This is a no-win scenario.  You can't have a game without programming.
You can't have a game that's not pretty.

(Myst was way over-budget on what it's graphics SHOULD have been-in MY opinion.
A 60,000 polygon clock that shows up as an 8 pixel-high object on a table is a waste of
artist time))

I Rendered the DOF benchmark to:

On a Pentium 133 256k burst 32meg ram it took
6:59

thats very strange.... because the the time on your pentium 150 and
the Cyrix where slower....

All of this talk about multiple cameras is kinda funny, considering only
two years ago that any animation longer than 10 seconds was a big deal.
Also, I don't know about the animations anyone else are making, but mine
take a few days to render on a Pentium. So, a couple of minutes to change
the camera for a different angle is not big deal when I'm going to have a
wait of days or weeks for the animation to render.

I'm looking for the postal address of LightWave Pro magazine. I would
also like their phone number and e-mail address. Does anyone know one
or all of these? Please reply to this thread or send me an e-mail.

Thanks in advance,

I'm curious how you folks go about the rendering process. I know you
use decks and pc(s) but what about your output devices and settings?
Are you going to film or video?
If video, what resolution? (D1 or D2)?
Do you use a Perception card at all?
How about antialiasing; is there a standard setting you happen to use more
than others?
What do you think of the DPS capture card, is it usefull for what you
need to do?
Do you find animation programs other than Lightwave to be better for
certain effects?
What sort of blur effects generaly work best for you?
Any special tricks for your stars, beyond the standard Lightwave formulas?
Do you ever sleep?

Well thanks in advance for any question(s) you might have time to
answer. Keep up the great work!

That analogy is uneven. A programmer taking up raytracing is more like the
artist programming simple scripting language,  data fields, simple gameplay
 logic or map design. If the programmer is completent at graphics work, it
is still a time consuming job, a full time job in itself ( that's unless we
are talking graphics unintensive game design or skimping on graphics or
putting out rushed sub standard work) meaning that the programmer has taken
on two jobs. Chances are, if the game has any graphics complexity, unless
the programmer is unusually gifted in programming and art, something will
suffer, either the programming or the artwork.

Here's something that wasn't brought up. Code is reusable and a new game
can be made with new graphics, but generally artwork can't be re-used in
someone elses product.

Eventhough I never had the opportunity to use multiple cameras, I can still
think of many reasons why I would want it.

Not in sequence of importance:

Multiple cameras with different user preset limited regions.
Multiple cameras with different user preset focal lengths.
Multiple cameras with different user preset envelopes.
Multiple cameras with different memory buffer sizes.
Multiple cameras with different preset resolutions(especially custom ones).

Multiple cameras with different antialias, motion blur,  depth of field,
etc...
Multiple cameras targetted to different items and/or while cameras are
travelling different motion paths.
Cameras can be used as additional perspective windows.
Instant comparison between camera compositions as opposed to rendering
variations and then looking, more choices less time.

Each single item takes under a minute to set, but if you want to do a dozen
variations of them, even simple ones like switching on/off low-res or
motion blur or raytracing and  combinations of them,  back and forth, again
and again, we begin to talk about wasting minutes that add up over the
course of a day, then weeks or months, and through the length of a project.
The time adds up and it need not be the case. Multiple cameras should be as
convient as multiple lights.

Simply because it is minorly inconvient to try out settings, camera
movements, we do not experiment as much as could.

The worst thing about working in 1600x1200 is that modeler or layout has to
work much much  harder to bring the display onscreen because there are so
many many more pixels to calculate versus 800x600. I find myself often
shrinking the window down in modeler to get more speed. I am definitely
looking forward to having faster re-draws in v5.0.

You don't often hear graphic artists go "oh no, some pixel (I have no idea
which one) has gone rabid and is killing the rest of them" :)

Art sort of progresses linearly, with programming you often have to
dump the method and start over, sanity bending bug-hunts are another neat
feature of programming.

No offense to graphic artists - I do the odd bit of artwork so it's not a them
vs us situation as far as I'm concerned, IMHO it's more boring than
programming, but far less boring than a bug hunt (this is the bit where
someone plugs Ada95 :)).

Ratio of art vs code does depend on the game, I'd guess a sierra game has more
work put into the art than the engine - since they wrote the engine in 1843 and
havn't changed it since.

To say that one piece of software inherently produces better images than another is generally a
poor argument.  If I were to say that Michelangelo's paintings were inherently better than those
done by Picasso because of the brush that he used, I'd be laughed out of the art community
(firstly because the logic is absurd, but secondly because of personal opinions on which artist
is 'better').  I'm sure that you could put a perfectly awful artist in front of a powerful
modelling/rendering program like Alias/Wavefront/TDI, or Softimage, and get perfectly awful crap
as the output (remember the old saying, Garbage In, Garbage Out).  On the other hand, when I was
in college, one of my artist friends whipped out his sketchbook while we were eating at
McDonalds, and in an act of desperation because he could not find a charcoal stick, burned the
end of a french fry and began sketching some people a few tables away.  The results were
astounding, even more so considering that he just 'made' the charcoal fry that he was sketching
with.  In the same vein, I have seen people produce quite excellent work with what is considered
'low end' software, so I find the "Oh, your software is crappy" argument a poor crutch at best.
I believe that talent and creativity are much more important today.

3DS is perfectly capable of producing graphics which can be transferred to NTSC, PAL, or film
output.  Ask Gregory Pyros of the Pyros Partnership, or Tim Forcade of Forcade & Associates.
They've been doing graphics for decades on every software/hardware setup imaginable, and use 3DS
for everything from architectural renderings to animations of the pyramids at Giza for Nova,
though they still use other software too.  I'm sure that Sony Imageworks would be happy to tell
you that 3DS fits the bill for many animation tasks.  NBC, CBS, ABC, and FOX affiliates, and a
number of cable companies use 3DS, or contract work done in 3DS, in addition to LW,
Wavefront/Alias/TDI, Softimage, Electrogig, etc.  Johnny Mnemonic, and the latest Hellraiser
flick have used animation done in 3DS (the movies sucked, but the special effects were cool).
The point I am making here is that you claim that 3DS is not *capable* of making professional
output just because *you* cannot make convincing images.  You are dead wrong.  But once again,
this goes back to my argument that it is the talent and creativity of the artist rather than the
software that is more important.  I am not saying you are untalented, but blaming your work on
the software is a cop out.

Actually, MAX has spruced up everything *including* the renderer.  I'm not goint to go through
the list of improvements, as you've either seen them, or can look at them on MAX's home page.
Even though I'm buying MAX, I don't feel tied to any one program.  The ability to use 3rd party
plugins, Photoshop plugins, and the fact that Autodesk includes the plugin SDK and documentation
with the software means that provided that my c++ skills are still up to par, my only limit to
what I can do with MAX is what I can buy or program myself.

Another thing that bothers me that people conveniently leave out when they claim how superior one
piece of software is over another is that very few production houses would rely on *any* single
piece of software to do everything.  Many professional production studios will use Alias for

Out of curiousity, how well do you think Alias or SoftImage in their older
versions would compare to the new crop of PC based 3d packages?

The whole point is that in addition to saving a few minutes is that doing
more planning, more testing, more experimenting, may make it easier to get
it "right" in the first place, especially important when render times are
still so long.

I would look at the FAST AV Master
http://www.fast-multimedia.com/fast/html/products/master/avmaster/avm.html
This is a much better card than the Miro.  I compared them both at
NAB, and the fast was only $100 more, it has audio, a 4:1 video
compression (vs 9:1 on the miro).  This card preforms similar to the
much more expensive Targa 2000 card.  The only card I saw the produced
better video than this was the DPS Preception card.

I have once read about some lightwave plugins called Motion Master 1+2
from MetroGrafix (I think). The article explained some cool plugins,
but at the time they were only avalible for the amiga platform.

The aricle was a bit old so if anyone knows anything about the two
packages (where can I buy them, how much do they cost, are they
avalible for win95 platform, and perhaps a short objective review).

Any help will be most appreciated.

    It’s interesting you’d use that example in favor of multiple cameras.
    While I agree with you, I can say I have NEVER used multiple lights

    just to compare angles, edges, colors, etc.    I just tweak the light

    Although, I can’t wait to use the projection feature in 5.0’s lights!

Yep, it seems to be working -- supposedly, the latest issue of

As an professional animator, I can honestly say that either piece of
software will open doors for you depending on your actual talent. These
pieces of software are just tools! They are another pencil or brush that
allows an artist to express themselves. Both have drawbacks, and both can
be used for either film or television.

The major difference then is price/performance. As stated many times in
this newsgoup a television show done with Alias is not going to be very
cost effective. If you want to take advantage of any of Alias's cool
features, you must render with Alias. The drawback is of course, Alias only
renders on SGI. This makes for a very expensive render farm, and makes
(dare I say) for one expensive dongle! Of course the render quality is
fantastic, you will simply be giving more of your income to SGI than you
will be putting in your own pocket. It is really a question of economics.
If a company has to spend ten times more on software and equipment, then
they have less to pay their animators.

As far as film work, it really depends on what type of effects you need.
Because Lightwave can do 90% of what Alias can do, then the question again
comes to economics. A Carrera Cobra 366 will render circles around an
Indigo2 Impact, for alot less money. So instead of giving the money to SGI,
guess what? The equation changes and the profit margin is higher, and
therfore, (no not a witch) more money to pay animators.

Now to address which software to learn. Hmm, I really recommend learning as
many pieces of software as you possibly can. Again each is a tool
(paintbrush) the more brushes you have to offer an employer, the better
asset you become. I originally learned Alias at Art Center, and was hired
for my Alias skills (Amblin Imaging), but of course we used Lightwave
almost exclusivly. Now knowing both packages makes me more valuable, I Know
which tool for which job, and what makes sense to render in i.e. save
money. I can also run Lightwave at home, and do stuff for myself.

So go out and learn as much as possible, but if your on a budget, then does
it make sense to buy an Indy that renders slower than a pentiumn pro? And
what are you going to do when that Indy needs service? Do you know what SGI
charges for service! The bottom line is your reel, that is what impresses
employers, not what software you know. An employer with vision will know
and understand what is important.

SGIs days are numbered, agian it is simply a question of economics. Unless
they dump mips and buy Digtal Chips, or start making Open GL cards for NT
boxes, they are simply going to run out of market share. This is really the
best thing for all of us, some good friendly competition is what this
country is all about. There are two many effects houses that have been
raped for years by SGI (highest profit margin in the workstation business)
and somtimes things come back to bite you in the ass.

Quite disappointing, I expected a faster rendering with a SGI.
I think we have to buy a Pentium Pro system.

After having seen the new (version 5.0) of Lightwave running with its
OpenGL support,  it's time to start planning a new purchase.  I know
very little about OpenGL and many of the ads I see for video cards
don't seem to make mention of it... it's making it harder to make an
informed decision.  I know the MGA Mellinium card from Matrox is
considered a good candidate but surely there are others equal to or
superior to that???

How bout it?  Does anyone have any feedback they can share on this
topic?

thanks

Just another example of someone who has never used multiple cameras, so he
doesn't know what he's missing. Like I said before, if you need/want to make
some different renders from some different shots and angles, well of course LW
can do it, but with a zillion different key frames and thats ok if you plan on
keeping all those different shots. But if all you are wanting to do is to just
check the places that you might want to do some shots, just to see how they
might look, then when you are all done you have to go back and deleate all of
those other keys that you don't need any more. What a hassle! Trust me, if you
had multiple cameras, you WOULD USE them and you WOULD LIKE them. And I'm not
just saying that this would be an ok thing and, yea I guess if they had that
feature, well I suppose that I would use it, kind of a deal, but it would be a
feature where you would love it and be greatfull that it was put in.

I have no idea what sort of game you're talking about, but (as a
programmer) I'm convinced that programming is more work. I can't imagine a
game would be held up by bugs in the art, the way they are if there are
lingering bugs in the code.

I would also be suspicious of any deal that gave any one person 50% of the
profits

OK, which is _more likely_ to look good, film animation rendered down to games,
or games rendered up to film?

Wait about 30-90 days, is my advice.


There is currently one Shipping OpenGL card that I know of, and that
is the V192. It claims about 50K shaded, 1M wires, 16mb VRAM, and lots
else. It costs about $5,000, I've seen it sell for circa $4,200.

The GLint guys should be coming out with a competitor soon, at the
$2,500 mark, and in a few months all hell is going to break loose.

A recent post on this group claimed that SGI's days are numbered. Well,
this isn't true, but the days when SGI can screw people for mediocre-performance
machines which really aren't all that capable in the graphics department
are over, or should be soon.

I think this whole line about the superior skills and itelligence of a
programmer are completely bogus!!! I just got back from the CGDC(computer
game developers conference) and thats one of the jokes at the art
seminars, how alot of programmers are wanna-be artists but no artists want
to be programmers....Mere proficiency with a tool means very little...I
know of a few artists who program for fun and guess which they think is
easier?.....IT reallly depends on what you chose to specialize in doesnt
it.....I think this whole thread is rehash of the "my penis is bigger than

No, but you do see graphic artists, especially in 3D, tweak and rework their
animations, until it looks "just right"  This is analagous to the debugging process for
programmers.

??? You don't think artists have to scrap ideas too?  When you have hundreds of bones
in an object, and that one polygon is still deforming improperly, you start to go a bit
crazy.  (I admit the ol' "." that looks exactly like a "," goof REALLY sucks.)

I've done both, and although I enjoy the art side more, I still like programing side
too.

Absolutely.  Think about all the DOOM clones out there (DOOM, DOOM2, Heretic, Hexan,
etc..), using pretty much the same engine.  They would look pretty silly w/ the same
graphics.

Doesn't anyone here know the multiple camera trick in LW?  Just set up lights (light
intensity = 0% of course) in the places in which you would want another camera to be.
Set view to lights and... Viola! Multiple cameras.  When you have all the shots you want
simply keyframe the camera to the exact locations of the lights.  Also great for
parenting a virtual camera to an object.

Well I own The Intel Version so I am not in the same boat as you Dave. But I
do believe this is the worst thing I have heard any software manufacturer do.
IMHO, believe that ALL users who have not received their final version of 4.0
get a free upgrade to 5.0. That is only fair. I know that it costs alot to
upgrade and maintain a program, but lets be reasonable would newtek like it if
some of their loyal customers moved to another program? If I were Newtek I
would at the very least give anyone who did not get their copy of 4.0 Final
yet on the alpha a discount in upgrading to 5.0 (say the amiga price of $295).

 the original poster seem infinitely more concerned with

>>Unlimited Cameras              One Camera
>You can t use more than one camera rendering, so what s the big deal?

I use 3DS and LW and this is a limitation of LW that annoys me.  I have quite
often used multiple cameras both for rendering and modeling.  Its a tool that
once you get use to having you can't believe LW doesn't have.

>>Modeless                       Modeler/Layout still exist as two
>So?  This is pretty minor at best.

Not at all minor.  Since in MAX you can animation modeling features.  E.g.
you want to push a ball through a curvy tube.  This is a simple two kf
animation using animatable fit deformation.  This was previoiusly just a
modeling tool.  In a model environment, you have to do most such animations
using alot of morph targets.  You can also animate while your patch objects
are still splines.  I really hope the next Version of LW overcomes this.

>>Seamless Plugin Architecture   Nope
>What is "seamless" besides a marketing ploy?  When I use a plug-in, I pull
>up the menu and use it.  What s not seamless about that?

With seamless, all the controls buttons can sit at the root of the interface,
so you don't have to call a plugin make a change go back and see what it
looks like then call it again to change it again.  This is more of an
advantage for some types of plugins than others.  I got really annoyed at
3DSr4's plugin arch, it took 6 keystrokes for what now takes 1.

This is also where it's an advantage to have a true WinNT interface.  Since
MAX ships with source, it seems that it wouldn't be to hard to edit the UI
resource to add buttoms, et al.

The other advantage to the NT interface is you can keep most any window open,
like the materials editer, and move it over to a second moniter if you like.
(yes you can have 2 moniters in NT)

I think this is a valid argument. Most high-end houses that can afford
it model in Alias, animate in SI and render in Renderman. There are
inherent differences in the coding of each app's render engine that
will undoubtedly impose limitations on the quality of the render.

Another thing you can do is truncate the .pvd files in the PVR-Player
(Re-render the pieces), then delete the portions you don't need anymore.

Even though this is the LW group, here my question. I am still waiting for 4.2.
Will it be possible to capture straight from within premiere, so that
batch-capturing (on-lining) will be possible? Anybody got any experience yet?

In many cases, I have found motion blur is not an alternative to field rendering
for smooth motion. Fast-moving objects in particular can look annoyingly jerky,
even with dithered blur. If I increase the amount of blur and/or number of passes,
I get nicely blurred frames that still look jerky when played. Plus, too much blur
simply looks unnatural and *still* is jerky. I've seen this in extreme cases with
film as well, but it seems film can be pushed much farther before this occurs. I'm
not sure why.

Just read an interview with Dennis Muren (one of the original Star Wars/ILM crew)
in CineFex. He discussed how the first go-motion tests were so astonishingly
smooth, and how they attributed this to the motion blur that this method allows.
But he did some further testing and filmed a go-motion creature first normally,
and then with the camera's shutter closed way down. (This speeds up the shutter,
which quickly results in strobed, jerky-looking footage.) Muren compared the
normal, nicely blurred footage to the strobed stuff and found that they both
looked pretty smooth! He concluded that the main difference between go-motion and
traditional stop-motion was not blur at all, but the tiny inconsistencies per
frame that are unavoidable when animation is done by hand.

Regarding OpenGL video cards: I use SoftImage here along side Lightwave
and the fastest card that is SoftImage compliant is the Dynamic Pictures
card. You can get it for around $3500. Ours came in a NetPower Calisto
system and it is very fast.

Why is Alias the clear choice?  And it's true that the AVERAGE
lightwave animator makes more than the AVERAGE alias user.  True that
top Alias talent will edge out LW, but for rank and file animators, LW
artists tend to do better pay wise.

Also, what limitations do you see LW has in regards to rendering out to
film?

To whomever this may concern:


I have several Micropolis 2.1 gig harddrives that i have
overstocked and must sell now!  (gotta make car and house
payments!!)  These drives are some of the fastest on the
market, and retail at the CHEAPEST wholesale stores for
around 800 dollars.  These are the AUDIO/VIDEO drives
remember.  This is a lot faster than any ordinary
harddrive, plus its a microplis, which is the best brand
on the market.  The drives are all brand new.  All of
the drives are selling for $400 flat.  No bargaining.
Thats already half of what everyone else is selling them
for.  They have a scsi interface, and i believe a scsi/2
interface.  Like i said, i gottta make the bills, so im
letting the things go.  Email me if you have any
questions or want to buy.  [e-mail]
I will not reply to anything in this news group.  Again,

Has anybody out there successfully installed a PVR in 200 mhz. P6
under NT3.51? Or am I the only one with all the headaches? The board
worked fine in my old P90 after a little juggling of IRQ's, but  it
will not work in my P6 no matter how many boards I remove. PC's and
IRQ's still suck  no matter how you slice it! I did not have
configuration problems on my old Amiga's or my Indigo2.

POLYMESH OFF.  I save DXF in Ampapi with Polymesh off and load directly
into Modeler without problems.  Exporting is more complicated.  First
every other layer and hidden object has to be deleted in Modeler and then
all n-polygons have to be trippled.  I hope Newtek improves the
importer/exporter with 5.0.  Anyone know?

    Bzzzttt.  Wrong.  Thanks for playing.

    This is like saying there's GENERALLY no difference between acrylics and watercolor.
YO! IT'S A MEDIUM!  Chant this 12,000 times a day.

    There ARE differences in renderers, and they are perceivable.  Everything after

    Hey, Great WWW page, you guys.

    Occasionally I'll get depressed thinking how slow it is to animate things:
Then I'll read something in CINEFEX where an animator will say how they scheduled
five weeks to create "Dino" for the Flintstones movie.....and I'll feel LESS
depressed.....

    Ya ALMOST got there, Bryant.  Why not SAVE the light's motion path, and reload it
    into the camera?

    OR, parent the lights (so you can look thru them) to objects, move ONLY the
    objects, and THEN parent the camera to the same object?  (This way you don't
    even need to save a motion file.)  (Ya need an object cuz you can't parent
    the camera to a light.)

    With 5.0, perhaps the Light's cone angle in its MOT path will correspond to
    the camera's zoom!  (Don't bet on that: however, a simple plugin......)

    Look at that!  TWO tips for the fan club!  Almost 2.5!

Aw, why did you have to mention that? Now someone is gonna ask why you'd possibly
need two monitors.

Does anyone know if Metrografx has a web site? I'm looking for some
info on Fiber Factory. Has anyone used it? Is it any good?

Thanks

If you mean that you want to change the file paths within the Amiga scene, I
have found that a simple search and replace in a text editor works well.  Keep
an extra copy of the scene file to be safe.

Star Trek (Generations, DS9, and Voyager) uses CGI work that is very difficult
to distinguish from the models, because they went to great effort to make it
look realistic.

Right.  Which is why I posted in my original response that I would be glad to
hear what the uses of multiple cameras would be.  My suggestion of using Null
objects obviously won't allow for different lens lengths, but it accomplishes
some of the other goals.  Now that I have heard some of the reasons some
folks want multiple cameras, I am intrigued.  I think I am going to do some
experimenting with it this week.

If we want our moving object to appear "sharp" we try to get by with field
rendering.  Of course, that is not always the effect we want so we might opt
for motion blur which seems to be a better choice for extremely fast motions.

Just speaking from a real-time character-based perspective [both as a programmer
*and* an artist]...

Character animation with LW [in particular, with v4.0] is hard. There are a
number of imperceptible SNAFUs that can sneak by test renders. I'm talking
about folding/crumpling joints [anybody who has used bones with LW knows what
I mean], limbs that accidentally pass "through" other body parts and objects
[like the floor], strange-looking IK movements, shearing image maps, non-planar
polygons that cause rendering errors [i.e. disappearing polygons], etc.

I firmly believe that each [programming/art] has its challenges. I wouldn't
necessarily say that one is *harder* than the other. Just different. And really,
does it matter?

OLE2 is *hard*. Some days, I'd chuck that stupid Microsoft OLE2 book across the
room. Problem is, it's so heavy that I can hardly pick it up! ;-)

OTOH, setting up a functional hierarchy of bones and morph targets with IK goal
objects and more nulls than you can shake a stick at is *hard* also. Getting the
motions right can be more than a little trying sometimes :-)

Come to think of it, the _fun_ quotient can be pretty low for both coding *and*
graphic creation at times...

Well, you can run LW 4 on CyberGfx screens.  It works (I do it now),
although its dog slow at times.  Layout is the worst - Modeler is
usable, although still not great.

I do not quite know why it is that slow.  Granted Amigas have slow CPUs,
but that wouldn't seem like the sole cause, because other modelers such
as Vertex work *staggeringly* fast on CyberGfx systems.  But LW's is a
dog.  I suspect it is some side effect of portability, although I really
don't know what.  At one time I guessed that between redraws, the screen
was cleared by blitting a bunch of data over the bus, rather than using
one of the graphics.library calls that is implemented on the card.  But
that's just a wild guess on my part, and probably wrong.

consider going to a P100 instead.  The move from an AMD-100 to a Cx-100 will
be noticeable, but I think a move to a Pentium will be better.  If you can't
swing it now, wait about 3 months.  :^)

>Has anyone tested or benchmarked the AMD 5x86?

Oops!  I misread that as a Cyrix-5x86.  I think you can count on the
AMD-5x86-133 as being very close to the Cyrix.  It isn't as "advanced" of a
processor, but it does have that clock speed going for it.  I still suggest
the move to a Pentium tho.

Uhhhh.  How come ya would want two monitors?  After all, you can only look at
one monitor at a time (I ain't countin' peripheral vision).

But seriously, I didn't know that.  I am assuming that this is true.  Is it?

I agree, plus programmers today have to be good in math or even physics
while dealing with 3d objects.  Maybe later someday, programmers have to
sharp their chemistry skills too. A person just know how to write codes
in c/c++ doesn't make him a good programmer.

Sound like an okay start. Question is, what are  you willing to pay?
Consider that you may also need a Perception card to transfer to video.($2000)
More ram is better. Currently I have 32 meg and it's all used up on many of my
scenes. When you are relying on virtual memory, you had better have a good book, cause
things are going to render slow (depending on complexity of course). I would
recomend 64 meg if you can afford it. 4 meg might be better on your video
card,(not exactly sure on this) as it may run open Gl better in 5.0. I have a
4 meg Matrox Mill. Think about a backup system and a compatible scuzzy II
hard drive (4 gig might be a good start) to go with the perception card if you
end up going the video route. Take your time and shop around. There's nothing
worse than getting a so so system quick, only to be plagued with unnecessary
headaches that will take away from your rendering power in the future.

Have FUN!!!!

Wes.

Probably not the 3DS points per se, but you might take the 3DS loft path,
load it into MAX, convert it to a spline, and load it into Lightwave as a
.DXF shape with vertices placed along the spline path.

Absolutely; something Microsoft grabbed from the Mac and put into Windows
NT. I know of several 3D Studio MAX beta testers who would open and work
with floating Material Editor, Track View and Video Post windows on one
21" monitor, and then keep the main UI/floating Virtual Frame Buffer
rendering screen on another. Just move your mouse from one monitor to the
next. It's kinda weird at first, but until we all get flatscreen
Cinerama-format monitors at stupefying resolution... <g>

Hi,

Yes, always get a full tower case. If you plan on getting a PVR, you also
need to make sure the motherboard can support the full PCI cards, some new
motherboard designs put the CPU out of the way of all card slots. As far
as video check out the Matrox Millinium.

Just in case you happen to want to put 2 cameras side by side(about an
eye's distance apart..or give 'em 6 degrees of difference)..and render
out a TRULY 3d animation for stereo goggles... I've been thinking that 2
cameras have been needed for a while...but far be it for someone like me
to have a good idea based on VR or the like..L8a

???!  You just enter the values in the camera envelope at the
appropriate keyframe.  This is meant to show that multiple cameras can
be faked in the current version of LW.  Perhaps I should explain
again.

  You set up your spotlights as if they were separate cameras.  You
can adjust the angle of the lights to simulate different zoom levels.
When you like how the shots line up and it come time to render, you
simply keyframe the camera to the positions the lights used to be in.
Focal length, FOV, etc... can all be entered in the envelope for the
camera.  It's really no big deal.

Remember this thread started when someone posted a list of
"comparisons"  between LW and MAX.  One of the negatives for LW was
that it didn't have multiple cameras.  I'm just saying its not really
a problem.  It's easy to simulate and not a hinderance at all.

BTW: I've worked with multiple cameras before.  They're cool, but I
can easily live without them.

This is a bug with the PC Lightwave. Try making letters with Type-1 fonts, and
you'll have no problem.

Why use lights then, you can use the camera then. The point is being able

This trick won't work until objects can target other objects.

Interface one side, work area the other side. two 15" monitors cheaper and
larger than one 17" one. I don't care for much on the mac, but that is one
feature they have that I would love to have(at a reasonable price)

This arguement has been going on ever since I entered the business (in
the days when all a project needed was 1 programmer and 1 artist). As
the different game genres have appeared and disapeared, that ratio has
swung from one side to the other in an endless cycle.

Projects that need a single programmer and a team of artists and
others where countless programmers argue about how to speed up key
routines and the sole artist has a few textures to work on.

Things are changing for artists though. We find ourselves having to
master various new skills from your basic 2d art and animation to
professional 3d packages, motion capture and fmv, video editing and
design.

In my experience, most jobs considered 'creative' have also fallen to
the artist to work on such as storyboard and game design. Personally
though, I'm quite happy for the programmer to think and be considered
as the most important element in the team as when the boss comes
ball-busting about the deadlines, I know who is going to get it in the
neck :)

Maybe this is what sets them apart.

This sounds like it takes more time than saving multiple scenes. I hope
they'd simply make the camera like the lights where can have different
settings for different cameras. The whole point to having multiple cameras
is convience.

I've wanted multiple monitors ever since I had seen them on the MAC. What
is involved to get NT to have multiple monitors? Can you simply plug in two
video cards or do they have to specialized ones?

I wouldn't jump ship to get multiple cameras, but it IS a hinderance. Right
now, I do not use multiple cameras; that's because they are not available
and simulating them is a distraction from the work at hand. The way I am
composing stuff now, I would not need it most of the time, but if the
option was available, I would change my habits to take advantage of it.

I've heard arguments like that for: tape vs floppy disk, and floppy disk vs
hard drive.

From an ontological perspective:

Without good art, you have an uninteresting, unattractive game.

Without programming, you have NO game.


...from a different perspective:

Art makes people try games; design keeps people playing games.



...but no one will try/buy a game that just plain looks bad.
Art and artists are necessary, and decent art takes a very long
time indeed.

You neglected to tell the user that he could use trueSpace to save his
object as a DXF format then import it into Lightwave Modeler, without
having to purchase any additional software.

I'm looking for help and advice on importing AutoCad DXF files into
lightwave. I seem to remeber reading about this a while back but I can't
find any references. I've looked through all my back issues of lightwave
Pro and can't find anything.

I'm just looking for things to watch out for to make the process go as
painless as possible. I talked to the production company that I do some 3d

Binary posts do not belong in unmoderated discussion groups.

I run a program that searchs for, and issues advisory cancels for,
large binaries in the akr, biz, comp, misc, news, rec, and sci
hierarchies.

I have issued 30 advisory cancels for large binary files or parts
thereof (total size 4,911,078 characters) posted to 10 different
unmoderated discussion groups in the
  19 comp.databases.ms-access
   3 misc.forsale.computer

The cancels in non-targeted groups are a consequence of the way cancels
interact with cross-posts.  A cross-posted article has only one
Message-ID.  When it is canceled from one group it is canceled from all
groups.

This pointer is being posted to each affected group listed above,

The criteria used to search for this batch of large binaries were:
   NEWSGROUPS: Unmoderated akr, biz, comp, misc, news, rec, or sci
           (except for comp.binaries.apple2, comp.bugs.2bsd,

   BINARY: base64, binhex, uuencode, and xbtoa encoded files, etc.
   SIZE: > 100,000 characters [(size * (# of parts - .5)), if multi-part]

If you must post a binary to Usenet, please post it *only* to an
appropriate binaries newsgroup such as alt.binaries.misc, and do *not*
crosspost it to non-binaries groups.  This permits news administrators
and users to decide for themselves whether to receive binary files.

And in basically the same way--polygons are tripled before being displayed

Although I thought the modeling of the Allasuarus was pretty impressive, I
thought the actual animating, lighting and compositing wasn't.  In many
closeup shots the dino looked like it was shot with an abnormally wide
angle lens, compared to the live action shot - a technique many model
makers use to make their small models look larger.  Only thing, it
stretches the model to an accelerated vanishing point making it stand out
as "not right".  Lighting seemed too contrasty with not enough actual
location shadowing playing on the surface.  Question also - was this
comped in Lightwave or AE?  Because if it was comped in AE, why wasn't
some kind of 'degrading' of the image used to 'push' this model back into
the scene.  It looked pasted on and the added shadows underneath were too
diffused and light to appear real. A little dust kicking up would have
helped also.  Now I know that the budget was probably very low and so some
of these things probably could have been worked out with more time.  Only
fault I found in the actual model was the tongue.  It seemed way too
smooth, with no bump mapping to add texture.  And why was the dang thing
always running around with its jaw agape like some broken Barney doll?
And finally, they should have used it even more.  The scene where the
poacher was eaten was so much a cop out, reminded me of that skit on SNL -
Cameraman is interviewing a guy when he sees a UFO but the cameraman
doesn't pan, he just tapes the guy describing the incredible event behind
him.  Oh well, good models.

I am creating some imagery for a PC video game which involves
a number of characters doing walk cycles.  Each character can
walk in one of eight directions.

I animate a walk cycle in one direction, and I want to copy
that cycle seven more times, changing the orientation of
the object(s) for each cycle.

The best way I've found to do this so far is to hit enter at
each frame, type in the new frame, and select 'all items' for
the new keyframe.  So, for frame 0 of an 8 frame walk cycle
I do this seven times, entering 8, 16, 24, 32, 48, 56, and 64.
Then I do this for frame 1, etc.  This is rather tedious.

Anyone know of a better way?  Please e-mail me at '[e-mail]'
if you do.

Thanks.

Jeffrey,

I am assuming your using Lightwave 4.0 with Rev C or later on.  NewTek
has developer their own 3D file format translator that works with DXF,
3DS and OBJ files.  It's Translator3D plugin you should add, it
replaces the ones developed by Syndesis in Rev A & B.

All that you need to do is open a .dxf file and the translator will
take care of loading it.  It's hard to tell the sizing and I haven't
looked at what size I create compared to what size the translation
ends up being.  I've also not used the actual AutoCad program, but
have created DXF files with Fractal Design Poser & Animation Master.
I've also imported DXF files from my Visual Realtiy Object library
CD's.

The only thing I've really had to worry about was the normals on the
polys,  Poser required all polys to be flipped,  So did the Visual
Reality CD,  Animation Masters needed most flipped, but depending on
how fancy the curavtures where, I needed to pick individual ones and
flip them seperately. Hope this helps

There are many disadvantages to using DXF, and many advantages
to using InterChange.  DXF does not carry any RGB color or other
surface information.  It rarely properly represents hierarchy info,
sub-object names, and would turn all polygons to 3- and 4-sided
faces.

With InterChange, none of those disadvantages are present.
You can go directly from trueSpace .COB to a LightWave scene,
making a scene file plus separate LW objects for each sub-object.

Possible, but not probable...  I did hear a rumor that some smart Soviet
had figured out a way to make a 3DS-DOS IPAS work under Max, but I'll
believe it when I see it.

Max's plug-in interface is much more comprehensive than any other
I've seen.  All of the plug-in APIs I've seen are sufficiently
different that I'm not sure it would be possible to make a standard
type of 3D plug-in.

If your clients are actually using AutoCAD, and have the latest
AutoCAD Release 13, I'd recommend skipping the DXF files and
using 3D Studio format instead.  R13 can save it, and you'll
get much better results.
