Wow, now I am finished with rendering my scene... 400 frames took me about two weeks! But I am quite happy with the result although there are two mistakes in it... First of all the texture of the rotating ring with the symbols does not rotate and keeps its position, and secondly the wormhole surface comes through the iris at some points... But overall I think it looks great, I am very happy with the result .. It's 80 MB as an avi in 1024 resolution, so I have no chance of uploading it anywhere, but I think I'll further compress it and reduce it's resolution to upload it on my 20MB server So, stay tuned And finally: THANKS for all the various help in the different threads to all the kind posters!!! Best Regards Markuz P.S.: Here's a nice Background image apart from the video...
