I am sure he has some legal means of getting the program or using the computer of someone who does. Nobody would be so foolish as to advertize that they pirate software here - piracy is illegal, and not tolerated around these parts.

It is slightly strange, considering he also has a copy of maya... sounds like a really rich kid to me. Still, let's not let fly with accusations of piracy and so on, we have no proof.

Me scowls, and puts more cash into his lightwave/beer fund

Amusingly I'm not doing well at saving to buy lightwave. Being a student will get me the academic version, but it also means drinking lots of beer, which means less money. It's a catch 22.

But, as for your problems and questions, personally I would take to heart the advice you have been given about rendering alpha's in your modelling program, simply because it's so much easier, hassle free and acurate. It's one of the most useful things to learn how to do. Err... Avatar this is.

That's how ship frames were actually first put in the original EV and EVO: in PICT ressources (two for each ship: one multi-sprite image and the correponding multi-sprite mask) containing the 36 frames in 6 rows. Maybe it should be on EVNEW docs.

I can get a copy of the educational version. Plus it's 3ds MAX 4 so it is cheaper than 3ds MAX 6. 🙂

My dad bought a license for Maya 5 educational version so I use his computer for creation of models and then send it across the network to my computer.
