I'm hoping that someone who is currently using HASH's Animation:Journeyman,
or, a rep. from HASH can answer a question for me.
 
I've read that Journeyman uses splines for motion paths.  Are there any
facilities for performing effects along those motion paths???  My main concern
is DECELLERATION...
 
I just got finished sweating for 2.5 weeks over an accident reconstruction
animation (the account was lost because my partner's 6MB A3000-25/40 blew
something, so we had no delivery system...sniff...my A3000-25/50 only has the
2MB it came with, so we couldn't even edit the 1200 some-odd-frame
animation!).  What was the real killer in this case was that a truck had to
show visual signs of deceleration along a curved path.  We constructed the
animation with Aegis/OXXI's Modeler 3D and VideoScape 3D.  I know, VS isn't
exactly SOTA, but it's motion files were easily edited with CED.
 
Will Animation:Journeyman make the next one, if not easier, POSSIBLE?
 
Sean
