she had a link in there, but i need to have a password which must be extracted from a book :(

Thanks again for sharing that link to me.

Aside from the link to the Bonus material dealing with Cel Shader, the book itself is full of great stuff and you can find it for about $12 used on amazon.

Gosh and I thought my Comp was bad :D
I think with my Comp I surly can do some things. All I need now is another 512 MB SDRAM dimm and a new Graphics Card :)

Well, it runs fine, rarely crashes too. I use it to mess around with the tutorials and such. Just now starting to notice lags as i get into volumetrics, particle emitters, and High-res UVMaps.

Most of my projects are small. I'll have a new machine by the time i am ready to take on any bigger projects. Out of curiosity, how big do your working object files get?

The noticable difference is when I render; Animations that take my office machine (also a P3 850) ~4s/frame to render take 2min+/frame on my laptop! :eek:
