Contributions from Richard mostly, and Tracy only rarely . Albert unfortunately, is no longer with us to type his thoughts - however as most of them were unprintable, it's probably better that he can't type them.
BIO
Richard's a Mechanical Engineer specialising in Stress Analysis. Due to the poor state of Finite Element Modellers he's spent a fair bit of time writing translators to enable packages like Poser, Studio, Truspace etc to act as modellers for mechanical products. Why not use CAD.. Because the file formats are too complex! Tracy is a Library assistant in Europe's largest learning resource centre (University library & computer department to most!). We used to have a character cat called Albert. He features in a picture or two.
Richard occasionally makes a few freebies which he distributes with the aide of Renderosity, mostly as a way of saying 'Thank you' for the help he's been given over the years by other members of the community. Though, making these items does also act as an outlet for a need to create that is occasionally stifled by the paperwork associated with his job.

Please find an Octagonal Highball Glass freebie attached.
The glass is modelled on a set my wife and I bought not long after getting married. Think we have 4 left of the six.. Anyway, it's a tall glass, modelled separately from the contents. The contents have a fill level morph and a tilt morph. To avoid having to do many, many different tilt morphs I left the contents as a separate object that can be rotated in 45 degree steps to get the correct angle of tilt.
The glass and contents are totally invisible in Filament preview mode, and difficult to see in any preview mode except iRay, so I have included an opaque shader, to aide visibility, and a series of glass shaders to return the glass back to the colour you want. I have included four liquid colour shaders, Red & White Wine, Absinthe and 'Blue Lagoon' Cocktail.
