        @ Pete:
        The airplane vid is amazing.
        Is that Vue?
        If so, how difficult is it to setup?
        What compositing software do you use?

        He he 😄, so many questions.

          Yup it's Vue.

          Well I have been using Vue for three years so I will say it's easy, however many new users would disagree. In the forums many complain about the complicated GUI and terminologies.
          I am not sure what you mean by Compositing software but if it helps I used only Vue for setup, camera tracking, object flight path setup, and final rendering.
          There are a few different packages available in Vue ranging from 'easel' the lowest to Xstream/Infinite top package, I would suggest purchasing Infinite as once you get going with say a mid range package like the 'Esprit' version and get the hang of it you would want the advanced features like .3ds export, solid growth plant editors and creators, ecosystems, etc.
          I still believe Max and LW are better animating softwares, however Vue IMO is the best terrain builder/animator.

              A new animation 😄.
              Some Silly objects...
              Render time was about 200 minutes in total on my core2duo laptop.

                A 'cleaner' variation on the same theme:
                I wanted to lower the saturation on the chicken but I think I would need Adobe Premiere for that...

                  Very cool, Biebel.

                  Way OT, but I need to know (if you don't mind): how's SU and SkIndigo working for you under Bootcamp? I quit using Indigo cause both SU and SkIndigo responded way too sluggishly. And I miss Indigo ... 😞

                    Hmm, good to hear. I got Vista business. Unsure whether that one's 32 or 64 bit - it just came with my Dell. 😄 I oughta check. Thanks for the info.

                        Stinkie, no problem.
                        For me the new Mac Pro works like a charm under Bootcamp vista 64. (Actually I never boot Fisher Price Macos X 😄)
                        I didn't have any hickups yet and Indigo runs smoothly.

                        If you run XP64 or Vista64, Make sure to install the X64 version of Indigo. It is very stable and more speedy than the 32 bit in my opinion :better spreading of tasks over the different cores and better adressing of the RAM.

                        (And it does a great job on Crysis as well 😄 )
