I totally agree, and that's what I've done before. But! always having the renderresolution model in your scene and just hiding the stuff you don't need to see for the animatic is a lot better. I think once you're used to it, you don't wanna go back. Everything else is just a workaround to compensate a limitation. That's our everyday live no matter what application I know that. I also know that nobody likes it.
about the thing that the scene is defect: New scene, null animated on a path and 67 carparts as childs is the performace I described. cinema with a full car rig still double speed with the exactly same geo on the same machine. the geo isn't very clean there are open edges and all the stuff you get from tesselated cad stuff. Still it's exactly the same geo and I can't reduce the scene to more than a null on a path animation. I think It's the softimage viewport, as it's always the same machine and max is also faster. I hate to admit it, but in this case it's a fail for softimage. thanks for your help Christian Stephan Haidacher <[email protected]> hat am 8.
