From the Max help file, FWIW... [ QUOTE ] IFL Files An IFL (Image File List) file is an ASCII file that constructs an animation by listing single-frame bitmap files to be used for each rendered frame. When you assign an IFL file as a bitmap, rendering steps through each specified frame, resulting in an animated map. (In a…
It's a cable, Richard. It's not like they're reinventing the wheel here. They've even included it on the 360 Elite, while leaving existing owners high and dry. Look at it this way, "1080p" was one of the biggest sales words pushed around by MS when they released the HD-DVD add-on last year. I bought my TV shortly before…
The A6000 looks like a very nice camera, and the NEX6 that it replaces was a nice camera too. The thing with Sony E mount is, make sure they have the lenses you want now, and don't expect them to release them in the future if they don't. The E mount system is still lacking compared to M43rds, but it has a decent selection…
Start thread derailment Too bad it never works like that. Before you know it, you'll be 30/40 years old. Still single and still putting in 60-70 work weeks. I also hate to burst your little bubble, but when you are crunching away at work, you won't have time to find a serious relationship. And, if you do, those managers at…

I've used PolySnow for 3dsmax and it's great. Of course you need a shader to really make it believable, but that's true for any solution.

Mark Dygert, you're really taking this to the next level. They don't want it even that sophisticated at all :) Considering me, I'm heavily annoyed. I was ready to export everything and out of a sudden the keyframing doesn't work the way it used to. I animate the opening of the book to page 1 which is 45 frames alltogether.…
I never said anything like that, and I don't think like that at all. Who said anything about free? You're going from one extreme to the other. I'm saying that the current price of games is over-priced, when you take into account the new distribution model that's emerging (digital through the internet). How is it that if I…
