This time around I just wanted some comments on the movie, and felt that it was arrogant to have people download anything larger than 100MB (...) (25 years ago, 4-Jul-99, to lugnet.cad)

| | | | | | (...) Sounds good to me. You got 100MB of web space lying round? Actually, what would make sense for that sort of effort is to split the animation effort up. If several of us with fast machines lying round take a few seconds of frames each it should (...) (25 years ago, 5-Jul-99, to lugnet.cad)

But I figure I probably need something like 4-5 days to finish off this animastion on my own computer, so it's doable. I just gotta improve the smoke (...) (25 years ago, 6-Jul-99, to lugnet.cad)
