Well I'm glad to hear you are not microwaving rats [But if you do the pigeons, you will probably need to finish them off under a grill.] This is interesting though ..maybe they could survive a nukrear [GWB spelling] war. They might be the only thing left.....and one day evolve into....yes you guessed it.....Mothmen

Funny! Reminds me of when I lived on a farm and had to teach a calf to eat solid food(for real). I used to look after the cat of a friend of a friend, and it required a pill with it's meal. After listening to her instructions on how to give the cat it's pills (for kidney ailment, so it was important cat got it) in which it frequently spit it out, I opted to crush the pill between two spoons and mix it in the food. Problem solved. Seems logiocal to me, but I keep encountering people who go through the difficult task of trying to cram it down the cat's throat. Cheese works good for dogs' pills too, if you don't have bacon handy.

I hope Coen welcomes the idea. I met him at 3dBaseCamp and he doesn't need to loose any weight but no doubt he realized I do!

Man my memory is going the way of the old forum Yep, I did have to copy one of those funny letter/number things when I registered here. I just forgot, Coffee, I neeeeeed more cofffeeee.

Whatever Jeremy say's, you still cannot beat riding a sports bike hard imo, but this must be the closest thing to it on four wheels. It looks pretty dam amazing and just seeing his face really gives you a feeling for how fast that thing is. I imagine there must be a waiting list for those things at that price!

No, they have to contribute stuff on the same basis as everyone else, Tom. It's just that they are already registered. All very "co-operative" We are thinking of using this flyer. [image: smallxchange_ruski.jpg]

Hmmm... there seem to be a problem. Now it doesnt work the way it did when I tested it. I'll try it more at work tomorrow. For now you can use the other script, jsShadowControl, to turn shadow casting and shadow receiving on or off. Even for non transparent objects.

Beautiful... I love the coloring too...

Thanks Chris I skewed and cropped and squared up the image in PS, then imported and exploded per Alan's comments. Worked great. Getting the color to match was a bit tedious, but by messing with the values in the image editor, saving and reloading a few times, the textures on all the components updated instantly throughout. SU is amazing.... E

you still need to pay attention to the menu lines in the scripts - always at bottom. suppose you have a road.rb (it's about time) and want to integrate it to menu.rb you will have to analyse the menu portion in road.rb, if it looks 'portable' (trial & error for me) copy the code (usually starts with 'if' and ends with 'end'). to menu.rb if you want to keep the plugins folder neat, you can place road.rb in the scripts folder, making sure the file location in menu.rb now looks like '**scripts/**road.rb' you then place a hash (#) at the beginning of every line of code in road.rb. that will disable the code and ensure you shall not find the menu item appearing in 2 different places. hope this is of help EDIT: if anyone has a list of scripts (fee and free) please let me know - i can then carry some trimming in my menu and post it (too much stuff). otherwise let me know which free plugin we should have as a must and i will write one new
