There is definitely a noise inside the flare. It seems to increase with the lowering of the streaks sharpness but it could only be because doing so, there is more white to see it... Yeah, I know, it doesn't help you a bit...

Joe, I believe you can attach a zipped file right here. Otherwise send it to tom@eias3d.com

I tried with an array of UberSpheres linked to a plane deformed with Runwave. As long as they inherit position but not deformation, the spheres retains their shape. I must get Placer deposit... Spheres_on_wave.mov

You have to use "Choose File" before "Attach File"... Forgive me if you did. Could you rephrase the question? English is not my native language and I don't understand what you're trying to accomplish.

Here, let me show you mine... ;)

That's a mighty nice toy!

Beautiful artwork Mike! An excellent addition to the gallery!

Steven, Regarding Scratches direction, I make an analogy with a saw. It helps me understand the way they appear on the surface. In your case, Dave's suggestion is your only option.

Michael, you will find nice collections here: http://www.doschdesi...es?subrubrik=33 http://www.marlinstu...ople/people.htm http://www.viz-people.com/ http://www.easy3dsou...People_Textures http://www.kropped.com/ http://www.got3d.com/ Free http://xoio-air.de/2...reen_people_01/ http://www.immediate-entourage.com/

I tried with EIAS V8 and Snow Leopard and I have the same result. The Fact file coming from ViaCAD is greyed out until I check "All files" I don't recall having that from ViaCAD V6. Any way, no big deal, just an annoyance... It opens correctly in V9.

Great! Thanks a bunch! :D

If you haven't figured it out by now (I did not, Tom explained it to me...), this is how you see the new posts easily...

:D I did... Kind of... Retired from day job last year at 58. Still working though but at my pace... What is young anyway? My son calls me "Ye Old One" and my 92 years old neighbour calls me Kid...

I tried doing the negative Z method to no avail... Steven's suggestion is the best solution.

Carlos, could you post the project?

New Year? Again? Seems like yesterday! Well, lets hope everyone gets his share of joy, health and love! Happy New Year all!

Alonzo, I didn't have the pleasure to know Richard but as he was your friend, you have my sympathies. Please pass them to his family.

In reality, there is 7 Tomas. We cloned him to cover every day of the week...

David, RealFlow is from NextLimit technologies. www.realflow.com NorthernLights provides the import/export plugin, you will find it in the Download area (fill up the form) www.northernlights3d.com You can also do it in post, do you know about Video Copilot? They have fantastics tutorials and a product that might do the job you need: https://www.videocopilot.net/products/action2/ There is also Particular: http://www.redgiantsoftware.com/products/all/trapcode-particular/

Merry Christmas everyone!

Bernd, I'm sure Michael simply meant there is something fishy about this not because it comes from Germany but because it clearly is not from the original American eitechnologygroup. Do not take offence.

Maybe try with software vs hardware previews to see if it makes a difference. You can also try passing your fact file through Transporter. You can wait for someone with knowledge to answer correctly...

Hmmm... Vanished they have... Most strange this is...

Michael, I didn't checked that for I didn't plan to use the model, I simply downloaded it to check the inside to understand why we could see the water through the port holes...

I think you are missing some inside floors... You can pick them up in my model. http://www.rdnmultimedia.com/eias/Captains_Log_obj-fac.zip
