You said you'd do it, and you did. Now that you've got me interested in expresions, I found the functions (drop down from the expresion edit window), but where do I find the list of A:M values/variable (i.e. ChorTime()).

Just tried it: If(ChorTime()>0.5,If(ChorTime()<1,ChorTime()*1000,0),0) It works You can leave the ",0"'s off as they seem to be optional and zero is the default. The {} specify optional.

I'm not an "Expression expert", but you might try nesting IF statements. if (Chortime() >.5, if( Chortime()<1,Chortime()*1000{,0})) Just a thought Just tried it: If(ChorTime()>0.5,If(ChorTime()<1,ChorTime()*1000,0),0) It works You can leave the ",0"'s off as they seem to be optional and zero is the default.

Just to let you know, you're not talking to you're self (well maybe you are TALKING to your self ) Thought I'd chime in and add that you've got my interest peaked with the "My Robot Movie" theme. And the Mags character, well, looks like he has a lot of , well, Character. His hands and feet though ? Keep on Splining!

Xtaz, The summary was great. Now I have to try and see what I can create with it. Tutorials (especially with pictures ) of anything are always great. So if you feel inclined to, please do. Thanx Glenn

I like the lazer etching effect and the trailing glow (not the right word I think) on the Logo. The lense flare and the particles drifting off are a nice touch. Being a CG hobbiest and a newbie to A:M, I curious how much of the finished visuals were done in A:M as a complete render and how much was done by compositing, post processing (photoshop....) and such. Sometime I beat my CG head against a not so CG wall trying to do things, not knowing some of the alternatives that are available. Very Nice (and the test clip too!)

Hey Pengy, I think you can fix the bare patch by selecting the group that it used to belong to, then hold the shift key down and select each CP in the affected area and along the edge. This will add them back into the group. You may have to save, close the project and re-open for it to appear correct. Keep splining Glenn
