  1. A funny concept has occurred but it sounds like I am most likely to pick up a used P C WINDOWS 10 tower (with the specs you have so kindly mentioned) from a gamer who wants cash for his her upgrades and call that my A:M Thanks many times again Cheers Bruce
  2. Excellent post !!! and it sounds like very fast chips are just over the horizon ! Thanks ! Cheers Bruce

  6. Hello I appreciate your suggestions. I hope to hear about details Graphics cards which meet the requirements of this program . I read on the product page " mid-range gaming card "......any details ? Topic graphics in desktop is in my next research I do need a specific on minimum graphics requirements for the current A:M ....more like brands test bench and details about computer with proper card preinstalled Sounds like I need a gaming computer ....yes ? Also What exactly are you using as a desktop in terms of detailed specs which interface with Animation Master ? For desktop and laptop I looked in the system requirements " Graphics Card: "Any mid-range gaming card will do." Again I am looking for more specifics . Lastly the portability factor is important but cost has a ceiling . My conclusion I seek a potable laptop or desktop with fast gaming graphics and 6-8 gigs of ram ...I think. Thanks again for your help.
  7. If you haven't bought the computer yet, consider something with a real number pad on it. The number pad is huge time saver for navigating the views. What particular suggestion for a computer do you have in mind ?
  8. In order to use the latest version of AM I am investing in a new Laptop,15.6", with i7 Quad-Core.CPU 2.2 -3.1GHz, 8GB RAM, 750GB I just need advise on the best operating system. Thanks for any advise .
  9. I saw sse3 and knew I was in the old woods and part of the past . Everyone is talking See4 ...I think ...
  10. Thanks . my old 2006 mac pro lap top says " sysctl machdep.cpu.features apple-3:~ ew$ sysctl machdep.cpu.features machdep.cpu.features: FPU VME DE PSE TSC MSR PAE MCE CX8 APIC SEP MTRR PGE MCA CMOV PAT PSE36 CLFSH DS ACPI MMX FXSR SSE SSE2 SS HTT TM SSE3 MON DSCPL VMX EST TM2 SSSE3 CX16 TPR PDCM apple-3:~ ew$ "
  11. As of August 2006 Apple announced and sold only intel chips my laptop has a 2.33 GHZ INTEL CORE DUO THE MAC PRO TOWER HAS two dual-core Intel Xeon Woodcrest at 2.0, 2.66, from 2006. My imac has an intel chip from 2008 . I guess I am looking for a AM version that worked on Mac computers ten years ago
  12. I am trying to use Am at the level of my present platforms .which are intel Mac Pro chips from 2006 . I understand i5 and i7 is technology from 2010 .
  13. In my MAC Pro Tower It has the standard two dual-core Intel Xeon Woodcrest at 2.0, 2.66, from 2006 . I am fine for now working with an older version of AM. once I pay for a new subscription Later ,I will get the lap top or tower (PC or Mac) that matches the appropriate specs for the latest version of AM....and pay again.
  14. Thanks! This is very helpful !! I have an iMac ready to load with any os needed . I leave my older platforms AS IS So I like te idea of a modern best version of AM for the iMac and An old Mac version for my MacPro tower I am planning some 2d projects as well as 3d . Thanks again . Bruce
  15. Hello to everyone . I am Bruce Morgan. I do music composition and art work . I aim to do graphic novels and animation shorts . I met the Hash family and Martin at Los Angeles conventions in 2006 . It was a wonderful experience ! The short animations I saw had high quality . In 2005 I was talking to Jo Williamson about his Hunter animation online . There just seems to be no limits to the capability of an independent artist using this program AM (is what I call it) Now I am back hoping to use a Mac Tower with OS 10 .6.3 I will read the recent notes and upgrade after I understand what platform I need . Cheers Bruce
  16. I believe the general consensus is that its turned into a job fair. It is actually more affordable and better for me to get a pc box with vita or xp and at least a dual core processor like an hp or an acer and just work the way you guys recommend so when i get the upgrade ill go pc
  17. You really dont' need that anymore. The current plan is a download/one year license for $79 whether you've owned it previously or not. great this helps Cheers Bruce
  18. I am getting restarted with AM and wish to use my mac pro lap tops . Can you tell me if am works best on vista ? or on the current mac operating sytem? Also -i have a hard time keeping track of my old account info and I wish to renew my subscription early this year . Is there a wayto retrieve info on customers other than the original registration number ? Comment You guys are still my favorite for 3d animation since Maya has all those expensive ever changing plug ins -it is just not friendly to the solo animator , Cheers and thanks for a response . Bruce ps 1 I can not wait to get restarted esapecially with the online tutorials . ps2 where will th ehash team appear this year sigraph ?
  19. I have emailed support today asking this very question It has always been great to see the Hash team at Siggraph!! Cheers Bruce
  20. Greetings My interests and aspirations range from photorealistic to animation which is aimed to look like period animation . I produce independant film features . I love the spirit of the Hash Team .!! I met Martin and many of his associated at Siggraph . They are very commited to helping individual artist animators to tell a story ! I just recieved and loaded AM 2007 .i am at the start of a new period in my amination training and I would like to be rgarded as a complete NEWBIE!!! .It appears that much of the resource referred to is online and unlocked by use of the extras disk is that correct ? You have a refrence in the Am Manual to" the art of animation master " is this available free on line or must I buy an extra book Thanks for a reply Regards Bruce Morgan
