Ok, I fixed the lighting.. Much better, I think. I synchronized the pistons, and modelled a quick chamfer cylinder in MAX for the cheese.. Keep in mind I have *no* idea what a real cheese factory looks like. This is just my playing around for my web page, which is named the Graphic Cheeseworks, hence the cheese factory. =) I'm also thinking about making a nice animation for it.. with the camera following the cheese as pistons chomp on it, and it comes out saying "Graphic Cheeseworks" embossed on the cheese... Just thought it'd be cute. It'll take me forever to get set up for animation and all.. not to mention the text might be troublesome... One question.. what's a good format for animation to put on a web page? Comments, suggestions, criticisms, etc. welcome as always. =) Rosh
