They got a very indepth.
The one I loved the most was arc lengh to motion path where they did custom scripts to determin the rotation to path.
The only problem is you cant save
(Well maybe you can
)The movies here are fantastic also(well the free ones is all I can vouch for). AND HECK I CAN SAVE THEM:banana:
But $49.00 for a month is to much!

I know what you mean!
You just figure out one problem(after a few wasted days) then another pops up(just a viscious cycle).
In a class room you can just ask and BAM you have your answer

What Im trying to tell you mate is that, this kind of situations are quite common among us 3d-people, and that won´t change ... The very same thing that frustrates us, drives us into a little bit more of knowledge of 3d so at the end, you end up learning anyway.

Lol, if It only were that easy. I´ve seen more perplexed faces at school by teachers than by us students.Originally posted by 3djoe

Yeah, it got to a point that when the teacher and I were talking, a student would come up to ask a question and would ask me rather than the teacher.

When I get home, I'm too tired to do anything for a while since I didn't sleep very well the previous night. Around something like 10pm I have the energy to actually do something what I like -> 3D and Gfx. At 2-3am I realize, phuck, I have to go to sleep just to wake up pissed off again... endles cycle
I need a way to get out of this. It's not very healthy.
And no, I'm not saying my job is a bad one. It pays my living but I'm just full of it, you know...bored...there is no challenge to it anymore. I'd want to do 3d, vfx, gfx and so on which has been my hobby for about 7 years...
Bah, enough of me. Do you guys have a situation comparable to anything like this?
(sorry about that, just had to blow some steam...)
