When I started reading this thread I was going to ask about Camtasia because that happened to me in the past when making Camtasia recordings. But someone else asked that :) I can't imagine it could be anything in Wall Worm Model Tools. But if there is anything in it causing that, I would certainly want to know. But my…
Hi I did consider asking this on the Autodesk forum, but then realised Polycount would probably be better as the folk on the Fusion forums don't understand the game modelling workflows used.

Hey guys I want your opinion on one card that I have been eyeing for a while now. What do you guys think of the GTX 680 for programs like Autodesk Maya, 3DS Max, and Mudbox?
