>You really wouldn't want to compare Lightwave with e.g. Softimage in terms >of functionality, would you? > Of course not. But Stephen Spielberg made those comparisons when he picked the animation system for SeaQuest DSV. He chose LightWave 3D, which includes the Video Toaster as an NTSC output card. ;-) The group generating Babylon V and Viper also arrived at the same conclusions after making those comparisons based on functionality, ease of use, and purchase price. ST:TNG is now also using LightWave 3D for many special effects now, too. I suppose if money is no object, then only functionality would be important when making comparisons. But since even Hollywood operates on budgets, price/performance comparisons will usually be the ruling factor. \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\|///////////////////////////////////////// - John Crookshank | MicroTech Systems, Inc. - - johnc@amiganet.xnet.com | BBS:708-851-3929 Voice:708-851-3033 - /////////////////////////////|\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
