hey, glad to know I'm not the only one. No, no spinning lights or motion blur. I've got a bunch of shadow mapped spots and just enhanced low AA. I would...
Nope, OSX 10.2.3 (thought I had mentioned that, but I guess it was in the last email I sent - about problems with Digital Confusion). I think this latest...
I'm using Surface HV's, with one Volumetric Point Light. The Light has ray traced shadows turned on, and ray traced shadows are also turned on in the Render...
... I'm not a Mac user so I can't specifically help with the main question [sorry] but I can safely say after using Maya at work for the last couple of years...
I figured Maya might have similar problems - the reason I would switch would mainly be job possilibities. I've been looking for work for a long time, and...
Ok, I just realized that 10.2.3 came out 12/19, and I think the last time I used LScript Com. was 12/17 (I created a script with it that has that date as the...
Well, thanks to Julian Johnson's Mac troubleshooting page, I discovered the problem! It is indeed a bug with LS Com. in 7.5 on OSX (and I'm guessing...
Hey thanks for posting this I am still working on getting a really useable radiosity scene where I have been truly happy with the results. So I try to soak up...
Ok, solved this issue as well. I discovered the problem was that I think I had loaded the Sasquatch shadow shader in Modeler instead of Layout (I did it...
Dave -- I can't speak to the corruption, but LW has always had a measure of instability on the Mac, regardless of OS, extensions, and use. I've been at it...
are you sure you're using them correctly? They work here on the trust Intel 7.5 ... __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!...
Hi, Is there a Modeler plugin that will automatically orientate the perspective viewport to face 180 degrees to the average 'normal' direction of the selected...
How complicated can it be? Make a point, select it, and do what the manual says: Converting to Metaballs and Metaedges You can also convert points into plain...
... Cheers Al, Bill Simons replied privately recommending your plugin. It certainly looks intriguing but ideally I'd like something that will take the normals...
Hi, Yes, with DOF Blur or in post with RLA images. Doug Groves has a web page very interesting where he explains how to use this image format in After Effects...
That looks pretty interesting (I knew there was a way to do DOF in post, but couldn't figure it out). Do you know if it's possible to do it in Premiere (or...
Hi again, I think that neither the Premiere neither the Photoshop have a 3D Channel, although I believe that the process should be similar for other...
... Hi Dave, As an adjunct, Angel Nieves of Motion Blur Studios has made an AppleScript which automatically trashes the Command Window Prefs file for you.. ...
Hey Julian That's cool, but is it necessary? Is it something that needs to be done again and again? I did it once already, and tried LS Com. a couple times...
... Hi Dave, As far as I can tell LS Commander recreates the Command Windows Prefs file every time you use LS Commander and quit Lightwave. On my system, if I...
Strange. The last time I saved a script was when I had OSX 10.2.2, and I didn't have any problems. And when I tried it yesterday after trashing the command...
... Hi Dave, It looks like the update to 2.5.1 is currently unavailable. To tell which version you have you can usually just run the LScript or LScript/RT menu...
Yup, 2.5. So lightwave-outpost.com is the place where I normally would go to update lscript, but it's just down for now (as opposed to being down permanently)?...
Cool, thanks, but unfortunately, it doesn't look like the lscript updates are there. At least I couldn't find them - docs for the updates, but no updates...
Yeah, I tried both PS and premiere, and unfortunately, neither app. recognized the file format. Oh well, guess I'm stuck with DOF blur. Thanks for the help....
... I just ran this test, on 10.2.3 OS X. No problem. Can you reply (off list) what you system/HW specs are? You may have some other issue that is HW related...
