Hey Tim,
I was simply stating the difference between expectations and final product
when it comes to autodesk.
For example, taking a look at the kinekt - pinnochio integration, the guy
is really excited about it, but looking at the output,
i couldn't use that animation in any kind of production,
If this just about features and useability.
I would have expected to see a roundtrip from Pinnochio to
the new 3dsMax crowd sim setup.
Create a male guy, change some features, put him in a suit, export.
Load into 3dsMax, create crowd, add him crowd. Playback.
Adjust his size and walking
In terms of questioning the advertisement to be true
to the final result, I´m sure with you guys.
Personally, I like the Pinnochio guy´s exitement and
germanish accent during his presentations. Feels familiar.
In terms of expecting a solution to a problem, I have
still become more careful. Been

Hi

Actually, ICE does have both grid snapping and Ctrl+R.
About group comments, I've pretty much stopped using them because of the
problem with rearranging. I find it's better to just make a compound on the
