No lie! In fact, from what I've read, alot of Todd Rudgrens Toaster 3D video's objects were created in Imagine's Detail Editor. Says something for Imagine's editor and for the Modeler that comes with Lightwave. I've used both and I would rather use Imagine's Detail Editor to create my models. I could never deal with the horrible interface of Turbo so I never used it. I used Sculpt instead. But Sculpt is now very outdated and not supported and Imagine basically blows it away. I guess the best of all worlds would be Imagine's Detail and Forms editors and Lightwave for scenes and such in a single package, or at least so they could talk to each other easily. And if Lightwave didn't require the Toaster...ah..one can only dream... Oh..by the way..why in the heck doesn't Imagine support accelleration and deccelleration in it's channels??? Just *how* do we do these things...please don't tell me I have to calculate the keyframes... -- Bob The Graphics BBS 908/469-0049 "It's better than a sharp stick in the eye!" ============================================================================ InterNet: bobl@graphics.rent.com | Raven Enterprises UUCP: ...rutgers!bobsbox!graphics!bobl | 25 Raven Avenue BitNet: bobl%graphics.rent.com@pucc | Piscataway, NJ 08854 Home #: 908/560-7353 | 908/271-8878
