Congratulations to all the entrants for the excellent standard of work, and congrats to deadhead and esper77 on their success.

Wonderful Sharen, thank you.

If you're printing B+W a lot then I can recommend Lyson Quad black and small gamut inks. It might be wise to pop over to www.lyson.com and have a look. They have offices in the UK and US (Chicago) as well as Europe. Hope this helps

Hmm, I've had that problem myself, but not all the textures of a model. A couple of things, if you open the model in the hierarchy then select each different bit, it should turn red, and sort of allow you to match the textures better. The other thing is try importing as an obj instead of a pz3 and see if that's better, or visa versa.

Congratulations, very good. And if I compare it to my first render it's outstanding, well done.

I've seen the bezels you can get for the cd and floppys, didn't know they came with the case though as the supplier I've got in mind lists them as accesories. Having a look at the different cases I'm drawn towards the PC6070 for it's quietness. Thanks for the info, Oh and your pics are better than the manufacturers ones I've seen :)

I am so envious, you're a lucky man MrB. I'm so envious, I've just had a look at the specs of that case and it's incredible, I reckon I'll be having one of those Lian Li cases. Oh there're in stock too, and the store is only 15 miles up the road. You're a bad man tempting me like this. Quick question, what Graphics card are you putting in?

Many congratulations, wonderful image.

Congratulations to all the entrants and especially the winners for a group of superb artwork. These really do show what can be done with the sheer power of Vue.

Hi Dale, If you stick this quote in front of the last one you have the exact text from the mag "Our review system comes with a beta of windows XP 64bit." The magazine is a future publication, but I'm pretty sure that it's printed in the states under license by someone else, but I dunno who.

Hi Dale, I've just read a review of a 64bit machine in 3dWorld. It uses the Gigabyte K8NPro board they also used windows 64 and I have to say they were less than enthusiastic, to quote... "We were disturbed to note that the operating system is highly optimised for the ultra expensive Intel Itanium processors, with no mention whatsoever of any support for AMD processors. Worse still the FX-51 {AMD's chip} is not compatible with the Itanium instruction set, so it derives no benefits from those optimisations." There were a load more issues, like not being able to install 3dsMax on windows XP64. They have a site, http://www.3dworldmag.com but I'm unsure wether the reviews on it. If you need anything else from the review just say.
