The site is a student resource. They push the boundaries of "Fair use"; borrowing materials from commercial and public domain sources.

However, I've found good links back to the original source in some cases. Others, are just flat out lifted from 3D Max, etc.

That would make a great video Scott (Harris not Hall)(Although, the pure entertainment of watching DSH accomplish this would be priceless)(No, not priceless, but it wouldn't cost me anything...  )

One thing I've noticed...

You need to have better materials handling discipline (over X5) or all those same name materials w/slightly different properties will make your life slow and miserable.

jon

Make your material a bit less transparent or use a textured glass material.

I subscribe to Adobe Creative Cloud, so all the latest and greatest including Acrobat XI Pro.  And, since it's a lease, it's same year tax deductible.  No depreciation to mess about with.

jon

Use a high visibility material (neon pink/neon green) to replace and then try to spot it in Perspective Floor Overview (Dollhouse).  Just because I'm not holding my breath for a new feature.

It took five minutes or so to get going, but once the ray trace started, it was quick: 100 passes in 4:14 on indoor "Quick" defaults.

You do know that EVGA has announced a 6GB version of the card, right?  http://www.evga.com/articles/00830/

Thanks Denis,

I've included the *.plan for modification as well as open and closed state symbols in the zip file.  Hope y'all find some use for it.

Stack your cabinets.

I would use a virtual Win 8 Hyper-V or Oracle VBox setup with native XP 64bit.  Best performance for your legacy printer without the need for workarounds or maintaining additional hardware.

I would go outswing as well (safety), but the swing would be toward the center of the room (modesty)

The CT developers need a P3P compliant privacy policy.  Otherwise a cookie "hack" is the only solution. 

Read it, learn it, know it.

Clean clear mirrors in camera view and ray trace when I test your plan.

Larry, you can download Paint.NET and use adjustment layers (similar to Photoshop) to achieve the effects you're after.  It's free.

It's happened a few times.  I either close and open the Lib window or CA, whichever works.

You need to set the rotation axis and angle of rotation in the DBX.  Don't forget to rename and re-gen your 2d block.

Typically, you assign either onboard or third-party GPU in the BIOS settings.
