  1. I am currently using VW 8.5 on a Mac 8100/110 with a Maxpower G3 PDS and 96 mg ram. There is talk of 'upgrading' me to a Silicon Graphic (SGI) 320 Visual Workstation, or the new workstations due to ship in April consisting of Duel 700MHz Pentium 3 processors, 20+ gig 7500 rmp Hard disk, NVIDA GeForce 256 video card, and NT 4.0 sp4. Is anyone using VW on a SGI? Is it incredibly fast but unstable? Has anyone compared the two platforms? I have not worked in the PC world other than to get e-mail.
  2. Well, I ended up stumbling upon the answer myself. 'Ray Trace', not 'Mapped' needs to be checked under the Shadow Method in the LightWorks Raymaker Options. Hope this helps somebody else.
  3. Normally I can walk and chew gum, but this is not happening. I even went as far as reinstalling Renderworks. Is there somwhere we could swap files to see what I assume is a setting that I do not have in correctly? thanks....
  4. I am on a Mac G3/233 as well as a Mac 8100 with a PowerPC750 G3 processor upgrade. I have tried over and over to achieve the "texture projection' effect as described in the Renderworks pamphlet that came with the VW/RW package. Has anyone else tried this? Any luck? I have confirmed and re-confirmed the preference settings. If anyone has had luck, please walk me through it....thanks
  5. Rebuild your desktop. Trash previous versions of MC/VW. It will work fine.
